Trump Complains About Lawsuit Being Filed too Close to an Election He's Not Running In

Trump Complains About Lawsuit Being Filed too Close to an Election He’s Not Running In: ‘It’s an Unwritten Law

Former President Donald Trump complained to Sean Hannity that he’s being “attacked” so close to an election he isn’t even running in.

Thursday’s Hannity aired part two of the host’s interview with Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate.

Trump called the lawsuit an attack by New York Democrats before claiming there’s a tradition of not bringing legal action against politicians so close to an election. Of course, Trump is not running this year.

“And there’s a rule,” Trump said. “It’s an unwritten law. You never do this politically. You won’t see Hunter Biden attacked during this period. Sixty to 90 days out before an election. Nobody gets attacked. They attacked me. The good news is, I just heard my poll numbers went up.”

Next Donny will claim legal action can’t be brought against him if it’s within 60 days of any election, anywhere, for anything.

No, TFG's name isn't on the ballot(s).

Yes, TFG at this rallies is more-or-less telling MAGAts to vote for HIS candidate (e.g., J.D. Vance) b/c it's like a vote for him. Indirectly voting for Trump.
