Opinion: New Jan. 6 court filing shouldn't scare voters. Trump would never do that again!

Dear voters who don’t only watch Fox News:

We here at the Donald Trump presidential campaign realize some of you may have heard or read about a new court filing by federal DEEP STATE prosecutors in the Jan. 6 WITCH HUNT case that oh-so-wrongly accuses your favorite president of trying to overturn the 2020 election.

We want to let you know, from the always-honest mouth of President Trump, that the allegations in this 165-page document are TOTALLY FALSE, and the so-called voluminous evidence presented is not something you should pay attention to or read. And even if it were true – which it DEFINITELY IS NOT – we here at the Trump campaign promise we would never do anything like that a second time around.

Donald Trump would never try to overturn another election – we promise

Does the filing from special counsel Jack Smith accuse President Trump of pursuing “multiple criminal means to disrupt, through fraud and deceit, the government function by which votes are collected and counted”? Yes, it does. But those are lies – the president used, at most, one criminal means – and the whole thing is ELECTION INTERFERENCE.

Since when do court cases move forward in a way that might be detrimental to the accused’s hopes of becoming president again and shutting down the court case? That seems un-American.

New Jan. 6 court filing reveals details about the plan to deny election results

Does the document detail specifics of this “alleged” plan to overthrow the government? I suppose if that’s what you call this, then sure:

“When the defendant lost the 2020 presidential election, he resorted to crimes to try to stay in office. With private co-conspirators, the defendant launched a series of increasingly desperate plans to overturn the legitimate election results in seven states that he had lost—Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin (the ‘targeted states’). His efforts included lying to state officials in order to induce them to ignore true vote counts; manufacturing fraudulent electoral votes in the targeted states; attempting to enlist Vice President Michael R. Pence, in his role as President of the Senate, to obstruct Congress’s certification of the election by using the defendant’s fraudulent electoral votes; and when all else had failed, on January 6, 2021, directing an angry crowd of supporters to the United States Capitol to obstruct the congressional certification.”

But you know what those are? Those are a bunch of words strung together into what the liberals want you to believe are “sentences.” And are you really going to trust these so-called sentences to deliver factual information? Of course not.

Those could be migrant sentences Democrats let into this country to steal your way of life.

Did Trump supporters want to hang Mike Pence? Who can really say?

Some in the FAKE NEWS media have focused on one part of the document that details how on that Jan. 6, one of President Trump’s aides “rushed to the dining room” to tell the president that Pence had been taken to a secure location after rioters breached the U.S. Capitol. The aide apparently hoped the president would do something to ensure Pence’s safety.

The document says that President Trump responded: “So what?”

Opinion: Fat Bear Week debuted with a violent death. It's time to give the bears guns.

First off … TOTAL LIES. But even if that detail about President Trump not caring whether the coward Mike Pence was safe happened to be true, you, the voter, needn’t worry about it.

The only person who should worry is current Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance. (Don’t worry, JD, President Trump would NEVER treat you that way, as long as you do exactly what he says. By the way, what is your noose size?)

Trump is saying the same things he said before the last election

Finally, this probably unconstitutional court filing claims President Trump told advisers before the Election Day in 2020 that he planned to “simply declare victory before all the ballots were counted and any winner was projected.”

The dirty, lying document goes on: “Publicly, the defendant began to plant the seeds for that false declaration. In the months leading up to the election, he refused to say whether he would accept the election results, insisted that he could lose the election only because of fraud, falsely claimed that mail-in ballots were inherently fraudulent, and asserted that only votes counted by election day were valid.”

Opinion: Vance and Walz had civil debate. Trump flung career-damning insults at soldiers.

That is complete nonsense, and the fact that as a reelection candidate President Trump has again been saying those exact things in the months leading up to this year’s election is a strange coincidence you should in no way think is odd or devious.

Just relax, already. You’re being hysterical.

It's not like Trump and Vance continue to deny the 2020 election results

If you need proof that President Trump and his running mate will honor the result of November’s election, just listen to how peacefully they have accepted the result of the last presidential election.

When Sen. JD Vance, R-Ohio, was asked by Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz – LOSER! – at this week’s vice presidential debate whether Trump lost the 2020 election, Vance said: “Tim, I'm focused on the future.”

Asked on Thursday by comedian Jason Selvig if Trump won the 2020 election, Vance replied: “Yes.” And when asked again, Vance said: “Yep.”

President Trump himself, during his debate against Vice President Kamala Harris, was asked by the moderator: “Are you now acknowledging that you lost in 2020?”

“No, I don't acknowledge that at all,” he said.

You see? Both men at the top of the GOP ticket have clearly and forcefully accepted the outcome of the 2020 presidential election, and the outcome they accept is that President Trump won.

Trust us, America, you have nothing to worry about as long as Trump wins

Faced with such unparalleled honesty and firm grounding in reality and common sense, how can anyone look at Lyin’ Jack Smith’s Jan. 6 court filing – with all its stupid evidence and long string of dumb witnesses willing to testify under oath – and think the Trump campaign would ever try to do something dishonest?

It makes no sense. And it makes even less sense if you don’t read the document, which we at the Trump campaign strongly encourage. Spend your time browsing our online Trump merchandise store. Maybe get yourself a watch or a hat or something.

Just please don’t read that document.

Make America Great Again!
