Trump Rails Against David Weiss, Who He Appointed: ‘Would Not Have Been Picked by Me’ – By Charlie Nash (Mediaite) / Aug 12, 2023
Former President Donald Trump railed against David Weiss and attempted to shed responsibility for previously nominating him Delaware’s US attorney after Weiss was appointed Department of Justice special counsel in the Hunter Biden investigation on Friday.
“David Weiss was picked by the two Democrat Senators from Delaware under ‘Blue Slip.’ He would not have been picked by me,” wrote Trump in a Truth Social post on Friday evening. “But I have a great idea. Why don’t they use Deranged Jack Smith.”
He continued, “Weiss has been investigating Hunter for 4 years, giving him the ‘sweetheart’ deal of all sweetheart deals. But a brilliant Judge in Delaware saw through it all. Now, I read, the Department of Injustice wants a new Judge and Jurisdiction. But so do I, with far stronger reasons than Hunter & Crooked Joe. MAGA!!!”
