Donald Trump’s legal defense did not start in a courtroom. It began on the banks of the Chattahoochee River.
After his historic federal indictment, the former president stepped onstage Saturday in front of more than 2,000 people packed into a convention center here to once again declare his innocence and deliver a grievance-laced takedown of what he said was a biased federal law enforcement apparatus.
"In the end, they're not coming after me. They're coming after you — and I'm just standing in their way," Trump said.
“The ridiculous and baseless indictment of me by the Biden administration’s weaponized Department of Injustice will go down as among the most horrific abuses of power in the history of our country," he said. "Many people have said that; Democrats have even said it. This vicious persecution is a travesty of justice."
