Donald Trump slams election indictment on eve of court hearing

[Social Media]

 

Ex-US President Donald Trump has lashed out at prosecutors on the eve of his court appearance on charges of plotting to overturn his 2020 election defeat.

The "unprecedented indictment" shows the "corruption, scandal, & failure" of the US under Joe Biden's presidency, he wrote on social media.

Security is being ramped up in Washington DC for Thursday's hearing.

Mr Trump already faces two other criminal cases as he campaigns for the White House next year.

But the election case he was charged with on Tuesday is widely seen as the most serious one of all.

 

• Who are Trump's six alleged co-conspirators?
• Five takeaways from Trump's third indictment
• Could Trump go to prison and other key questions

 

In an all-capital-letters post on his Truth Social platform on Wednesday, Mr Trump, who was at his Bedminster, New Jersey, golf club, thanked his followers and said: "I never had so much support on anything before."
