During a recent interview, former President Donald Trump responded sharply to a question from Norah O’Donnell about whether recent indictments against figures like James Comey, John Bolton, and Letitia James were acts of “political retribution.” O’Donnell directly asked if these legal actions were politically motivated, prompting a pointed response from Trump.
Instead of directly addressing the question about those specific individuals, Trump pivoted to his own legal situation. “You know what? You know who got indicted? The man you’re looking at. I got indicted,” he stated, effectively deflecting the question and drawing attention to his own legal battles. As of late 2024, Trump faces a number of indictments across different jurisdictions, including charges related to his handling of classified documents and his actions surrounding the January 6th Capitol attack, making his legal challenges a central theme in his public appearances.
