Former President Donald Trump is facing legal challenges that some claim are politically motivated. Speaker Ryan criticized Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, suggesting the case against Trump is unfounded and politically driven, stating if his name was Donald Cavuto, these charges would not have been brought. Jim Jordan echoed this sentiment, accusing Bragg of targeting Trump shortly after he announced his candidacy for the 2024 presidential election and hiring former senior Biden Justice Department official Matthew Colangelo. Mike Davis and Jim Trusty also expressed concerns about the motivations behind the prosecutions, labeling them as politically charged actions by Democrat prosecutors.

.@SpeakerRyan: โThis one here in New York I think was a bogus case. Alvin Bragg ran for office saying 'I'm going to get Trump' and he got him. If his name was Donald Cavuto, I bet these charges would not have been brought against him.โ https://t.co/vdPTYOlNvs
