Donald Trump has spoken on video for the first time since being indicted on charges of trying to overturn Georgia's election - referencing not the racketeering allegations against him, but instead claiming Joe Biden was part of a 'crime family'.
Trump declared that Biden was 'a Manchurian Candidate' - his new favorite insult - and claimed that the president was being controlled by China.
He also demanded that his trials be held after the 2024 election.
'It is now 100 percent that the Biden crime family received more than $20 million from foreign countries while crooked Joe was vice president - and probably a lot more than that; that's just the money they've found,' Trump began.
'Not one of Joe Biden's defenders has even attempted to explain what Joe and his family did, including his children and his grandchildren - what were they doing to get all this money?
'I believe we have a compromised president. He was bribed and now he is being blackmailed. He's a Manchurian Candidate.'
The term 'Manchurian Candidate' comes from a 1959 novel by Richard Condon, which tells of the son of a prominent U.S. political dynasty who is brainwashed into being an unwitting assassin for a Communist conspiracy.
The thriller has been turned into several films - most recently in 2004, starring Denzel Washington, Liev Schreiber and Meryl Streep.
'That's why crooked Joe is letting other countries walk all over the United States,' said Trump.
'He's petrified of China because they know exactly how much money has been given to him, and they know where it is. China has paid him a fortune.'

Hunter Biden had to admit guilt and give a detailed statement under oath as to what he did in order to prove to the judge that he understood the charges against him, that he was pleading guilty under his own free will, and that the charges against him were likely to be proven in a court of law.
Biden, as a part of his allocution under oath, described the business deal he was setting up with a Chinese businessman. If was after this point that the plea deal fell apart when the defense and prosecution disagreed on the terms of the deal. This left Biden stuck with having already described his crime under oath and then pleading not guilty.
I don't know how he will be able to have his confession tossed out as it happened under oath in open court in front of the judge, the prosecution, and his legal team. So far, everyone's been silent about this.

Good post.
Excellent points.
We’re supposed to shrug it off, apparently.
We won’t.
Good post.
The very same Democrat-Media "magic" that allowed Rapin' Bill Clinton to commit felony perjury in federal judge Susan Webber Wright's face, and not even get a red X on his permanent record...
I've been watching this b***s*** for 25 years on FR.
Today, it’s both worse and better in terms of the exposure of truth. I suppose the better part is the cause for the worse.
Problem is, Trump must surrender on or before August 25th. At that point he will be jailed before the trial. Hs is fulton GA, the armpit of the South.
I have a lower opinion.

Can anyone recall “the spy balloon?”
“Republicans Pounce”
Don’t we already know that the Biden family got at least that much money and that Joe was involved. It’s a fact, not some wild allegation.
“Four time indicted “
This is what Trump’s first name will be now with the media scumbags. We’d better get used to it.
Trump is correct. If anyone should have RICO charges filed against them, it should be the Biden crime family.
the mention of trial after the 24 election, only if you purge the agencies on day one and appoint people you know and trust, unlike wray barr pence
Do we have a transcript?
