Donald Trump's campaign has completely misunderstood why Trump's would-be assassin is being charged in federal court, a former prosecutor has said.Trump released a statement on Monday furiously denouncing the federal prosecution of Ryan Routh and demanding that the case remain in the Florida court system.He wrote that the charges against Routh were a politically motivated 'slap on the wrist.
'Trump said that the Democrats had tried to impeach him as president for fake claims that he had links to the Russian government and had tried to impeach him for the January 6 riot at the Capitol.His statement included several other grievances, including his indictment for keeping classified documents in his Florida home, which was dismissed by a federal judge and his conviction for hiding his hush money payments to adult film star, Stormy Daniels, which he still denies.
