Trump joked about his legal challenges while campaigning in eastern Iowa last night and vented his frustrations in an interview with Fox News.
Former President Donald Trump visits with campaign volunteers Tuesday at the Elks Lodge in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Associated Press and Angi GonzalezPUBLISHED 8:20 AM EDT Jul. 19, 2023A target letter sent to Donald Trump suggests that a sprawling Justice Department investigation into efforts to overturn the 2020 election is zeroing in on him after more than a year of interviews with top aides to the former president and state officials from across the country.
Federal prosecutors have cast a wide net, asking witnesses in recent months about a chaotic White House meeting that included discussion of seizing voting machines and about lawyers' involvement in plans to block the transfer of power, according to people familiar with the probe.
Headlining a Republican county meeting, Trump attacked investigators while trying to make light of what could be his third criminal indictment since March. Even before Smith inherited the election interference probe last November, Justice Department investigators had already interviewed multiple Trump administration officials, including the chief of staff to former Vice President Mike Pence and former top lawyers at the White House, scrutinized post-election fundraising and seized as potential evidence the cellphones of numerous lawyers and officials.
A consistent area of interest for investigators has been the role played by Trump lawyers in helping him cling to power, according to people familiar with the investigation who, like others interviewed for the story, spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss an ongoing criminal probe.
