Conservatives unload after Trump booked into Georgia jail in 4th indictment: ‘Sickening’

The arrest of former President Donald Trump on Thursday night at the Fulton County Jail resulted in conservatives across social media rallying in support of the former president who is currently leading in the polls for the GOP nomination in 2024.

“Sickening,” former Trump official Stephen Miller posted on X, formerly Twitter. “Authoritarian. They’re flaunting their crackdown on democracy.”

“Today is another dark day in U.S. history,” GOP Rep. Byron Donalds tweeted. “A day when We The People & the world, will witness the continued weaponization of the justice system against a political opponent, former POTUS, & leading candidate for the upcoming presidential election.”

“This is a travesty of justice,” he continued.

“Not all heroes wear capes,” GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert tweeted along with Trump’s mugshot.

“Those who decided to start using indictments, prosecutors & even mug shots as weapons in a political campaign have unleashed a destructive new era in American politics,” Florida GOP Sen. Marco Rubio tweeted.

“Now, for years to come our criminal justice system will be used to target candidates in both parties & the harm this will do to America will take a long time to fix.”

The court had set Trump’s bail at $200,000. He was quickly processed and released.
