Trump Describes Jan. 6 Defendants as ‘Hostages’ Rather Than ‘Prisoners’
Former President Donald Trump criticized the weaponization of justice under President Joe Biden in a speech on Saturday, specifically calling attention to the imprisonment of “J6 hostages.”
“If you remember in Minnesota, Minneapolis, where they took over the police station; they took it over and they burned it down,” Trump said at his Durham, New Hampshire, campaign rally, which was aired live and in its entirety on Newsmax.
“By the way, what happened to those people? Are those people in jail with the J6 hostages?”
“What happened to those people come to think of it. They’re not in jail with the J6 hostages. I don’t call them prisoners. I call them hostages.”
“They’re hostages.”
