'Unconstitutional!' Trump pitches Truth Social fit after Jack Smith's latest filing

Former President Donald Trump reacted to special counsel Jack Smith's massive new filing in the federal election conspiracy case with a long-winded rant on Truth Social, accusing him of a plot to interfere in the presidential election.

"The release of this falsehood-ridden, Unconstitutional, J6 brief immediately following Tim Walz’s disastrous Debate performance, and 33 days before the Most Important Election in the History of our Country, is another obvious attempt by the Harris-Biden regime to undermine and Weaponize American Democracy, and INTERFERE IN THE 2024 PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION," wrote Trump. "Deranged Jack Smith, the hand picked Prosecutor of the Harris-Biden DOJ, and Washington, D.C. based Radical Left Democrats, are HELL BENT on continuing to Weaponize the Justice Department in an attempt to cling to power."

"'TRUMP' is dominating the Election cycle, leading in the Polls, and the Radical Democrats throughout the Deep State are totally 'freaking out,'" Trump continued. "This entire case is a Partisan, Unconstitutional, Witch Hunt, that should be dismissed, entirely, just like the Florida case was dismissed!"

The filing by Smith, which follows the Supreme Court's ruling that presidents have a presumption of immunity for official acts, seeks to outline how there is enough evidence from Trump's private, non-official acts to reveal extensive criminal wrongdoing in the plot to overturn the 2020 results.

Whether Smith's argument is successful, the case cannot go to trial before the election takes place.

It also comes as Smith appeals a decision by Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Cannon that threw out the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case, based on a legal theory that Smith was ineligible to bring charges on behalf of the federal government because he was not confirmed by the Senate.
