Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R), a potential rival for the GOP presidential nomination, spoke harshly against the indictment of Donald Trump.
on his personal account Thursday night after the news broke. “The left’s continued attempts to weaponize our judicial system erode people’s faith in the American justice system and it needs to stop.”
The Trump indictment is sealed, so details of what he was charged with are not public. Bragg, a Democrat, has been investigating whether Trump violated New York state law as a candidate in 2016 when his lawyer paid adult-film actress Stormy Daniels to prevent her from talking about an alleged affair. A 23-member grand jury, not Bragg himself, found probable cause of a crime and made Trump the first former president to face criminal charges.
If the governor does seek the GOP presidential nomination, Rozell said, a failure to condemn Trump’s indictment “would be quickly remembered. On the other hand, he could have separated himself from the crowd, but I just think with Republican primary voters, [not condemning the indictment] is just not going to play at all.”Youngkin’s forceful response to Trump’s indictment stands in contrast to his restrained reaction to a prominent criminal case playing out in his own state.
“When far-left progressive prosecutors pick and choose which crimes to prosecute and ignore to advance their ideological and political agenda, our nation’s core principles of equal justice under the law are eroded,” Miyares wrote.
