Trump allies will step up their attacks on prosecutors investigating the former president next week, with the launch of an online documentary accusing them of political activism and electioneering.
“Chasing Trump” is scheduled to be released April 17, two days after a New York court begins jury selection in the first of four criminal prosecutions filed by Trump.
Its producers say it will look into the backgrounds of the prosecutors overseeing each of the cases.
And with the former president under a New York silence order preventing him from attacking witnesses, prosecutors, jurors and court staff, as well as their loved ones, it’s another example of how he is counting on the MAGA world to smear his accusers.
“‘Chasing Trump’ is an important documentary that exposes left-wing prosecutors who are using the government as a weapon to target my father,” Donald Trump Jr. told DailyMail.com.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, who is leading Georgia’s election fraud prosecutions, is one of four prosecutors in the crosshairs of “Chasing Trump.”
“This is the first documentary to take a deep dive into the backgrounds of the prosecutors behind the four cases against him and is a must-see for anyone who cares about preserving the rule of law and protecting our constitutional rights. “
Next week, the world will witness the unprecedented spectacle of a former US president appearing in court for the start of a criminal trial.
Jury selection is set to begin next Monday in the Trump financial silence case. He is accused of falsifying business records to conceal payments made to a porn star during the 2016 presidential campaign.
He denies all 34 accusations as well as any affair with Stormy Daniels.
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin L. Bragg is leading the prosecution.
He is one of the filmmakers’ targets, along with Fani Willis, who is prosecuting the Georgia election fraud case, special prosecutor John Smith, who is pursuing a separate case over the 2020 election, and the Florida classified documents case. , as well as New York Attorney General Letitia James, who won a $454 million civil settlement against Trump for fraudulently inflating his net worth.
“Four corrupt and politically motivated prosecutors. One target: Donald Trump,” intones the narrator of a trailer shared with DailyMail.com
“They say they respect the law. But a close look reveals policies of the worst kind intended to influence the 2024 elections.”
The film also takes aim at special counsel Jack Smith, who is leading two federal prosecutions.
Don Jr. said the documentary, released April 17, exposes left-wing prosecutors who are using the government as a weapon to target my father.
This shows that Trump is being punished for embracing the status quo and echoes his constant refrain that he is being subjected to a witch hunt.
This is an argument that he is prohibited from developing in the New York case, where Judge Juan Merchan imposed silence.
The former president had to use new tactics to make his point, at times treading dangerously close to flouting the restriction.
Last week, he shared a six-minute video clip of Fox News host Brian Kilmeade and George Washington law professor Jonathan Turley raising concerns about Judge Merchan’s daughter.
“Also, the fact is that the judge’s daughter is an activist who works for Kamala Harris,” Kilmeade said, referring to one of Loren Mercan’s office accounts.
The new documentary is one way Trump’s allies are making their case.
“Chasing Trump” is the first in a series produced by the conservative website American Greatness.
“These four lawsuits against President Trump are nothing more than partisan political activism disguised as the rule of law,” said Mike Davis of the Article III Project.
“Chasing Trump” will be available for free on amgreatness.com, as well as all other streaming platforms, such as X, YouTube and Rumble. It will be released on April 17, 2024
Curt Mercadenta, editor of American Greatness, said it would shock anyone who thinks the legal system is free from partisan political considerations.
“As the 2024 election begins to heat up, it is imperative that Americans have the opportunity to learn more about the truth behind the prosecution of President Trump, as well as the partisan prosecutors behind it. these cases,” he said.
Mike Davis, founder of the Article III Project, which was created to lobby for conservative judicial nominees and now campaigns against what he sees as liberal activism in the courts, said: “These four lawsuits against the President Trump are nothing more than partisan political activism. masquerading as the rule of law.
“Chasing Trump” exposes the left-wing prosecutors behind these cases as mere puppets serving Joe Biden and his political machine.”
