deleted the post when he realized the implication.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) accompanied Trump on the Palmetto State visit. She has cultivated
speculation of being his vice president pick.

However, it would have been a crime for Trump to acquire
the weapon, since he’s currently facing 91 felony counts
across four separate indictments .
Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung appeared to
have briefly forgotten that fact, posting a clip of the former
president examining the gun on X, formerly known as Twitter.

In the past , Trump has suggested that he carries a firearm, emphasizing that he likes to be
“unpredictable.”

Trump later held a rally in the Charleston suburb of Summerville, where he warned about the stakes of the
election and tried to quiet down jeers directed at Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC).

need help with the left, but he helps me.”

Trump is staring down a 34-count indictment from Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg over allegedly concealing
business records to hide hush money payments, a 40-count indictment related to alleged hoarding of
classified documents, a four-count federal indictment for his attempt to remain in power after the 2020
election, and a 13-count Georgia indictment for similar alleged offenses.

The former president has strenuously denied wrongdoing across the board and decried the legal
onslaught against him as election interference.

A Trump campaign spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Trump will skip Wednesday night’s second Republican primary debate in Simi Valley, Calif. to hold a rally
with striking auto workers in Michigan, one day after President Biden is expected to join protesters on the
picket line.

I love how Trump's face morphs from sourpuss to waxen fake smile mode when the video
olls. Of course, he can't actually buy a gun, with or without his face on it, given he's
91 felony indictments. Very mob bossy.
