Two of former President Donald Trump’s children have lashed out at a grand jury in Manhattan over their decision to indict the 45th US president.Eric Trump, the ex-POTUS’ youngest son from his first marriage to Ivana Trump, underscored that his father was targeted as a candidate for the Republican nomination for the 2024 US presidential election.”This is third world prosecutorial misconduct. It is the opportunistic targeting of a political opponent in a campaign year,” Eric Trump tweeted.

He was echoed by the 45th president’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr, who described the indictment as "big news in the weaponization" of the US government "against their political enemies."

He tweeted that the US “corrupt elites aren’t threatened by violent criminals on the streets because all of them have private security” and “they don’t care if normal people are being terrorized.””But they are threatened by Trump, which is why they’re willing to turn us into a Banana Republic to stop him!” he added.Donald Trump Jr. also issued a warning for some Republicans who he argues aren’t taking the issue seriously and didn’t think it would affect them. “So let’s be very clear, because there were a couple of Republicans, people who have proven themselves to be RINOs while trying to wear the MAGA cap, let’s be clear for those people who said, ‘It’s not real, Trump’s making it up, It’s not a real issue for us.’ If you don’t think that the weaponization of the entire federal government against their political enemies, against the voters half of the country approximately as we’ve seen… If you don’t think that’s a problem, you don’t even belong in any position in government, let alone president. […] You can have your sound bites and you can do your nonsense and pretend you’re doing great and hire your influencers. But if you don’t think that’s an issue, guess what? Just wait till they come for you. Because they will,” he claimed.This comes after the ex-president was indicted by a New York grand jury on charges in connection with hush money payments that he allegedly made to adult film star Stormy Daniels in 2016.Newly-elected Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., talks to reporters after a contentious battle to lead the GOP majority in the 118th Congress, at the Capitol in Washington, Saturday, Jan. 7, 2023. - Sputnik International, 1920, 31.03.2023AmericasTrump May Be Facing 34 Counts, McCarthy Says House Will Hold DA Accountable for ‘Abuse of Power’ 00:37 GMTProsecutors asked Trump to surrender and face arraignment on charges that have not been made public.
