Trump flips out overnight on 'major sleazebag' Jack Smith with conspiracy accusation
04 July 2023
Late Monday night, going into the July 4th holiday, Donald Trump fired off another attack at special counsel Jack Smith who has already slammed him with a 37-count indictment in a Florida courtroom.
With multiple investigations looming related to a fake 2020 presidential elector scheme and a possible indictment in New Jersey tied to Trump's mishandling of sensitive government documents at his Bedminster golf course, the former president has kept up a steady drumbeat of attacks on the Smith and his investigators.
Late Monday night was no different.
Linking to an almost-year-old Washington Examiner article with the headline, "Trump special counsel Jack Smith was involved in Lois Lerner IRS scandal," the former president accused him of trying to manipulate the 2024 election.
Taking to Truth Social, he wrote, "Jack Smith is a major SleazeBag put up by the corrupt DOJ to damage the Republican Party. He is all about ELECTION INTERFERENCE!!!"
