NextImg:Trump calls for a ‘federal takeover’ of Washington DC while calling for a new venue for his trial

Trump said last night that he’s called for a ‘federal takeover’ of Washington DC to bring the nation’s capital back to ‘greatness’.

He said this in the context of a potential legal motion to get his case moved out of DC because it is ‘impossible to get a fair trial’ there.

Here’s what he said:

“The latest Fake “case” brought by Crooked Joe Biden & Deranged Jack Smith will hopefully be moved to an impartial Venue, such as the politically unbiased nearby State of West Virginia! IMPOSSIBLE to get a fair trial in Washington, D.C., which is over 95% anti-Trump, & for which I have called for a Federal TAKEOVER in order to bring our Capital back to Greatness. It is now a high crime embarrassment to our Nation and, indeed, the World. This Indictment is all about Election Interference!!!”

I completely agree with Trump that he needs to get his case outside of DC in order to get a fair trial and I hope he’s able to accomplish that. But then he turns around and suggests a state which he claims is ‘politically unbiased’, but he won very big there in both 2016 and 2020. I’m not saying they can’t be impartial, but Trump clearly feels they will favor him there, which is not the definition of impartiality.

As far as his ‘federal takeover’ of DC, I’m not exactly sure what he means by that. I could hazard a few guesses, but what he said is pretty vague and honestly, weird.
