Donald Trump Calls on Supreme Court to Step In on Hush Money Allegations
Numerous admirers adorned the roadways with banners endorsing Trump or denouncing President Biden. In a protest gesture, some people held the American flag upside down, imitating Marjorie Taylor Greene.
Just four days remain until the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee begins, and his party is expected to nominate him for president for a record third time. This sentence in Manhattan is scheduled to take place.
In a Sunday night post on Truth Social, Trump referred to his opponents as "fascists" and requested assistance from the court, which he selected to make up thirty-three percent.
According to Trump's attorneys, the lawsuit will likely go all the way to the Supreme Court. Trump, who attempted to remove Merchan from the case on Sunday, brought up the accusations of prejudice made by the district attorney and the judge in the case.
Once Trump is sentenced on July 11th, his attorneys said he intends to file an appeal. According to his attorneys, the case will likely go all the way to the Supreme Court.
Of the six current justices, three were selected by Republican presidents: Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch, and Amy Coney Barrett.
Since the former president was found guilty of 34 felonies last Thursday, the Trump campaign has raised an incredible $200 million, according to his son Eric Trump on Sunday.
Surge in Trump Campaign Donations Following Criminal Conviction
Eric Trump, the husband of Lara Trump, the co-chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC), said she informed him that the amount represented more than $70 million in small-donor fundraising in the three days following his father's conviction for 34 crimes involving the falsification of company documents.
Following the delivery of the decision in the hush money trial, Eric Trump said on social media on Friday that the campaign had received $52.8 million in donations in only one day.
With the assistance of one significant gift, it has increased to over $200 million in just over a day.
According to The Forward, a Jewish publication, Israeli-American Miriam Adelson, the late casino tycoon Sheldon Adelson's widow, has allegedly donated $100 million to the Trump campaign in the days following his criminal conviction.
She and her late husband donated more than $200 million to Republican groups in 2020, and it seems as though they will be contributing even more in 2024. Her overall estimated wealth is close to $30 billion.
She is the most recent billionaire to promise to support the former president in regaining his position of authority. Stephen Schwarzman, the CEO of Blackstone, made the same decision to publicly endorse Trump last week.
The massive private equity firm said that the anti-Semitism that surfaced on college campuses during the Israel-Hamas war was a contributing factor in his choice to support the former president.
