‘A New Low’: Johnson Insists Dems Are in ‘Panic Mode’ and Are Using the Judicial System To Try To Stop Trump

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) is blasting Democrats for allegedly trying to use the justice system to hurt former President Donald Trump’s campaign.

During a press conference on Tuesday, Johnson said, “Something is happening in the country right now… When the verdict came down against President Trump, there was something palpable that happened around the country.”

“People realize that we have reached a new low,” he continued. “When you have activist prosecutors and the Democratic Party who are so desperate because of the presidential campaign and the way it’s going — they understand that 👤Donald Trump, all the polling shows, is crushing Joe Biden — they’re in panic mode on the Democratic side, and they are so desperate to stop 👤Donald Trump — he’s winning in the swing states, he’s winning among the people, he’s winning among new demographics that have never voted Republican before — they see this happening and they’re so desperate to stop him that they are willing to use the judicial system to do so.”

He added, “It is a new low, and it’s a dangerous one. Because what they’re doing is they’re eroding the people’s faith in our system of justice itself.”
