Some of Trump's fellow contenders for the GOP nomination defended him, while others took a harsher tone, with some even calling for him to drop out of the race entirely.
Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, a Trump critic, once again emphasized that the former president should suspend his third White House bid: "Step away from the campaign for the good of the country."
But other GOP hopefuls, like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy, decried so-called weaponization of the Justice Department. "As President, I will end the weaponization of government, replace the FBI Director, and ensure a single standard of justice for all Americans," DeSantis said. "While I've seen reports, I have not read the indictment. I do, though, believe we need to enact reforms so that Americans have the right to remove cases from Washington, DC to their home districts."
Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., has been among those leading the charge against Trump, including as a member of the House committee investigating the Jan. 6 riot.
