«I will win the elections for the third time and I will thank the hostages of the assault on Capitol Hill» .
On the third anniversary of the attack on the Capitol , Donald Trump reiterates the lie of the "stolen" election in 2020 and calls the jailed attackers "hostages" , promising to pardon them when he is elected in November "for the third time" to the White House.
The tycoon, as in his style, revives the conspiracy theory that the FBI and Antifa, the radical anti-fascist movement, led the assault.
And he attacks Joe Biden at his rally in Iowa: « Do I threaten democracy? The corrupt Biden sows fear, the real threat is him, who uses justice as a political weapon against his rival ."
The two leaders delegitimize each other: (" Trump is preparing a new assault on democracy, his rhetoric is Nazi Germany-like" , Biden said), a sign of a democracy, the American one, which is not in good health. And the beginning of an electoral campaign with tensions running high.
“Corrupt Joe organized his pathetic campaign event in Pennsylvania to spread fear. Because he doesn't want to talk about the border, inflation, Afghanistan or all the chaos he's caused in the world," Trump thundered.
However, the sword of Damocles hangs over Trump with the supreme court's decision on his eligibility , which will indirectly have a much broader effect: legal actions to exclude the tycoon from the primaries on the basis of the 14th amendment have been initiated in at least 34 states. In addition to Colorado, Maine has already banned him from the polls, while judicial challenges are still pending in at least 19 states. In 13 others, however, the appeals were rejected .
