Trump rails against indictments at New Hampshire event, calls charges against him 'bullsh*t'

A day after Donald Trump's posts on Truth Social were cited by prosecutors in a filing that requested strict rules on how the former president could use evidence, Trump ranted about his mounting legal issues while speaking to a large crowd in Windham, New Hampshire.

"I will talk about it. They're not taking away my first amendment rights," Trump told his supporters Tuesday after going after special counsel Jack Smith, calling him a "deranged lunatic." Trump called the most recent case, the 2020 election interference probe, a "ridiculous case."

"There was never a second of any day that I didn't believe that it was a rigged election," Trump said to allegations that he knew that he did not win the 2020 election. "It was a rigged election, and it was a stolen disgusting election. And this country should be ashamed. And they go after the people that want to prove that it was rigged and stolen."

"They rigged the election in 2020 and we're not going to allow them to rig the election in 2024," he added.

Trump continued to paint the charges against him as election interference, claiming that President Joe Biden "ordered" his arrest because he was falling behind Trump in the polls. Trump claimed he wouldn't be able to campaign because of the charges.

"I won't be able to go to Iowa today. I won't be able to go to New Hampshire today because I'm sitting in a courtroom on bullsh*t," Trump said to a cheering crowd and later reiterated that he was "being indicted for [his supporters]."

Trump also attacked Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and defended his actions in Georgia around the 2020 election, noting that he was likely to get indicted there,
