Trump Campaign Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt unleashed straight fire at the Biden campaign for a political stunt unveiled in New York City on Tuesday as the criminal hush money trial against former President Donald Trump begins closing arguments.
As the New York Times portrayed it, the Biden campaign “signaled it was growing more assertive on Donald Trump’s legal troubles” as it trolled the 2024 presumptive Republican presidential nominee outside the courthouse via a news conference featuring left-wing actor Robert De Niro and two former Capitol Police officers Harry Dunn and Michael Fanone.
Predictably, given his repertoire, DeNiro said of Trump, “He directs the mob to do his dirty work for him.”
“What you just heard from is a desperate and failing and pathetic campaign who knows that they are losing,” Leavitt said. “Joe Biden sending his campaign outside of this criminal courthouse — it is a full-blown concession that this trial is a witch hunt that comes from the top. Comes from Joe Biden, and he is using a far-left district attorney in this city, Alvin Bragg. This case would have been laughed out of any other courtroom in America.”

The Biden campaign claimed they were not seeking to influence the trial but just looking to capitalize on the news media scrum gathered to cover it, according to the Times.
“And the man overseeing this case is a corrupt and highly partisan and crooked judge who is highly conflicted for reasons that President Trump can’t even talk about because this judge imposed an unconstitutional gag order on the former president of the United States and the leading front runner in this election,” she continued. “This is a disgrace.”
Leavitt referenced Trump’s polling to suggest that the American people are not being fooled.
“President Trump has been locked up in that courtroom for six weeks. But guess what? The American people see through this witch hunt and this scam. And that’s why President Trump continues to rise in the polls,” she said, before referencing the crowds Trump drew at his recent rallies in New Jersey and the Bronx.
“Every day Americans, not elitist out of touch Hollywood actors like Robert De Niro, who have no idea the real problems that people in this city and across this country are facing,” Leavitt said. “President Trump is backed by the hard-working men and women of this country.”
Trump’s campaign spokesperson also took issue with Biden’s spokesperson accusing the former president of being a threat to democracy.
“Joe Biden is the real threat to democracy. He is weaponizing our justice system,” she said. “Look at all of you, this is a communist show trial. There are real problems in America and you’re all out here covering this because Joe Biden is weak. He’s pathetic.”
“He’s a threat to democracy. Not only with this weaponization of our justice system, but with his wide-open border invasion that is allowing a mass invasion of illegal people into this country, terrorists, criminals, our economy is in shambles,” Leavitt concluded. “Those are the issues real Americans care about. That is why President Trump is going to win this election. And ultimately he will be vindicated of this sham crooked trial because he has the truth on his side and he is an innocent man.”
Leavitt also took to X to blast Team Biden over the day’s “PATHETIC” stunt: “Joe Biden’s failing and desperate campaign is hosting a press conference outside of the courthouse in a full concession that this trial is a witch-hunt led by Crooked Joe and the Democrat Party. Their ‘special’ guest? A Hollywood actor.”

Here’s a quick sampling of responses to the story, as seen on the social media platform X:
With the heckling at DeNiro (which had poor Robert at a loss of words) going on he became a babbling fool.
This heckling is very unscripted & without proper guidance Robbie hadn’t the brainpower or wit to get through his moment in front of the Cameras!
He’s still off brooding &…

The Biden campaign’s circus outside the courthouse is a pathetic, desperate attempt to undermine the truth. This witch hunt against President Trump is a clear sign of their fear, as they know he’s the only one who can fix the mess they’ve made.
