Trump Claims He Had ‘Every Right’ to Interfere With 2020 Election

Former President Donald Trump stood his ground regarding any 2020 election interference by doubling down, saying he had “every right” to do so.

He added any criminal fallout was politically motivated, The Hill reported.

“It’s so crazy, that my poll numbers go up. Whoever heard you get indicted for interfering with a presidential election, where you have every right to do it, you get indicted, and your poll numbers go up. When people get indicted your pull numbers go down,” he said on “Life, Liberty and Levin” on Fox News.

Host and lawyer Mark Levin suggested in an interview broadcast late Sunday President Joe Biden or Vice President Kamala Harris could put an end to the federal election interference case.

The Republican presidential nominee faces federal charges in Washington, D.C., for allegedly trying to overthrow the 2020 election results. 

He is also charged with racketeering and other state counts in Georgia over an alleged scheme to overturn that state’s election results.

“Well, this is the worst case of election interference that anyone’s ever seen, certainly in our country,” Trump said. “They do this in third world countries, they have some of it in South America, they don’t do it a lot, believe it or not. But they do it.”

“And it’s such a bad precedent because people are going to think about it differently, and they’re going to think about it differently. And it’s very sad, actually,” he said. 

He continued with his theory that those prosecuting him are politically biased against him. 

“They put people in the DA’s office,” Trump said. “This was all coming out of the Department of Justice in order to get their political opponent — me.”

Trump continued by stating Fulton County, Ga. District Attorney Fani Willis “came up with this crazy scheme and a lot of people were hurt.” Trump was referring to the co-defendants charged in Georgia.

Special counsel Jack Smith filed a superseding indictment in the federal election subversion case after the Supreme Court’s immunity ruling in July, which ruled presidents have absolute immunity for actions that are part of the core responsibilities of the president’s office and are “at least presumptively immune” for all other official acts, per The Hill. 

Since that ruling, Trump has repeatedly argued he should be immune from those charges.

The case was sent back to a lower court to decide whether Trump’s actions on Jan. 6, 2021, are warranted. A second grand jury decided the charges were warranted against Trump.
