The news of a grand jury convening to decide whether to indict Donald Trump has made it to south Florida. Donald Trump issued a predictable statement, recycling some of his favorite hits; “this is a witch hunt,” “purely political,” “elections are rigged,” etc. None of the statement actually addresses what Trump is facing. Even more interesting, there no denial of criminal activity in the six paragraphs.
