Trump following the New York court's decision. We believe in the integrity of our legal system and have full confidence that justice will prevail through the appeals process.”

 

Chairman Joe Powers “expressed unequivocal support for President Trump and his confidence in the judicial system, echoing President Trump's sentiments and remaining steadfast in our belief that the truth will emerge.”

"Today's ruling is a part of what President Trump has accurately described as a 'witch hunt. This relentless pursuit of President Trump is an attempt to undermine his achievements and distract from the real issues facing our nation.” Powers said. "We trust that the higher courts will overturn this politically motivated decision. Our faith in the judicial system remains strong, and we believe that justice will be served in the end.”

 

Powers called on the Party’s members and supporters to rally behind Trump during this time. "This is a crucial moment for our party and our country, we must remain vigilant and united, stand together, show our unwavering support for President Trump and our commitment to upholding the principles of justice and fairness,” said Powers. “The ultimate verdict will be on November 5th.”
