Donald Trump is doubling down on his claim that he was the target of an assassination attempt.

Donald Trump is now looping his baseless conspiracies into his fundraising emails.

On Monday, the presumptive GOP presidential nominee escalated his claims that President Joe Biden authorized the FBI to shoot and kill him during its 2022 raid on Mar-a-Lago, this time promising to punish his two-time opponent for the alleged assassination attempt.

“Biden’s day of reckoning is coming,” the Trump campaign wrote in a fundraising email distributed Monday. “He tried to publicly torture and humiliate me … but he failed. He tried to raid my home and take me out with deadly force … but he failed.”

    As stupid as this sounds, there is no irony is saying “no one is above the law” about an American in America while simultaneously saying the ICC and international law don’t apply/matter. In the US we have a legal system that everyone within our declared boundaries has to follow. The ICC and international law is something countries could/can sign for, and choose to follow as they please. In fact, the ICC issued a warrant for Vladimir Putin and several of the signatories (the largest being South Africa) simply said they wouldn’t follow the law and arrest him. It’s a piece of paper with no legal or military enforcement. Countries can simply choose to ignore the ICC and international law.

      Mate, that’s not the only example…

      Do you think even with your addition to what he said:

      No American is above American law while currently in America

      Is true?

      Because man, I hate to break it to you…

      That’s never been true, and sure as shit isn’t now.

      Like, have you heard of the Sackler family?

      Or over half our Supreme Court justices?

      Or any of our corporations that break laws to make billions then pay a tiny settlement?

      An absolute shit ton of Americans are most definitely above American law.

      Edit:

      And besides, providing munitions that will be used in a genocide, is also against US law…

      So your point isn’t even relevant.
