This is just a crumb from his reportedly 15-page rebuttal, undoubtedly written by somebody other than him. The last paragraph of this snippet doesn't make any sense to me.The former president issued the statement an hour after his self-imposed deadline, claiming that his supporters acted "peacefully and patriotically" when they stormed the U.S. Capitol seeking to halt or delay the certification of President Joe Biden's election win.
"This memo is being written to express our anger, disappointment, and complaint that with all of the hundreds of millions of dollars spent on what many consider to be a Charade and Witch Hunt, and despite strong and powerful requests, you have not spent even a short moment on examining the massive Election Fraud that took place during the 2020 Presidential Election, and have targeted only those who were, as concerned American Citizens, protesting the Fraud itself," Trump said in the statement.
"Those who committed the Fraud, thereby having created the Crime of the Century, go DONALD J. TRUMP unblemished and untouched, but those who fought the Crime have suffered a fate that was unthinkable just a short time ago. We have a two-tier system of Justice in the United States that cannot be allowed to continue."

(33,345 posts)his use of language is so weird that it's hard to reproduce: "unblemished and untouched", "strong and powerful requests", "even a short moment".
come talk to the committee and present your fraud evidence, you fucking clown.
And capitalizing every other word!

(1,789 posts)Original count, multiple recounts, multiple court cases. Matter reviewed.
It is like the episode of the Simpsons where Bart lost the election for class president because none of his supporters voted, and he demanded a recount. "One for Martin, two for Martin. You want another recount?"

(57,073 posts)I agree with the two-tier justice system statement. Perhaps the only truthful thing to come from tfg, besides the statement that if people are allowed to vote, qpukes would never win.
Two-tiered justice is precisely why he was not treated like a Black man selling individual cigarettes on a street corner!
But I trust AG Garland is working on indicting tfg & the other ruskie assets in our govt.
