This time, he faces\u200b four new charges related to the Jan. 6\u200c protest on Capitol Hill and alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 election. Interestingly, just hours before the indictment, a poll revealed that President Joe Biden and Trump were tied in a\u200b <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/kaylee-mcghee-white-wonders-if-trumps-indictments-are-meant-to-distract-him-from-2024-run\/\" title=\"Is Trump being distracted from his 2024 run by the indictments? - Kaylee McGhee White\">hypothetical general election face-<\/a>off.<\/p>\n<h3>A Distraction and a \u2064Financial Burden<\/h3>\n<p>During \u2064an appearance on \u200dFox News, White\u2064 expressed her suspicions, saying, &#8220;I also wonder if part of it is to drown Trump&#8217;s campaign in distractions and debt so that he can&#8217;t focus solely on campaigning.&#8221; She highlighted a report that\u200d revealed Trump&#8217;s campaign has already spent hundreds of thousands \u200bof dollars fighting these <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/weve-identified-450000-ballots-that-miraculously-only-have-a-vote-for-joe-biden-sidney-powell-drops-a-bomb-on-sunday-morning-futures-video\/\" title=\"\"We've Identified 450,000 Ballots that Miraculously ONLY have a Vote for Joe Biden\" - Sidney Powell Drops a BOMB on Sunday Morning Futures (Video)\">legal battles<\/a>, which poses a serious handicap for his campaign.<\/p>\n<p>White further emphasized \u200dthat the implications \u200dof these continued indictments extend beyond Trump himself. They should concern\u200b all 2024 Republican candidates, as indicting Trump multiple times has opened a &#8220;Pandora&#8217;s box.&#8221; If Trump can face multiple indictments, the same fate awaits any other Republican \u200ccandidate. &#8220;All of their names \u200care on the \u200blist at this point,&#8221; White\u200c warned.<\/p>\n<h3>Support and Criticism<\/h3>\n<p>Following the third indictment, several Republicans have voiced their support for the former\u2063 president. Trump ally\u200b and former\u200b New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani claimed that the \u2062indictment is \u200da \u200cviolation of Trump&#8217;s rights. Rep. James Comer (R-KY) denounced the newest indictment, calling it a &#8220;sad day for the rule of law.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile,\u2064 some of Trump&#8217;s competitors in the 2024 race \u2062have seized the opportunity to comment on the indictment. Former Arkansas Gov. \u200bAsa Hutchinson used it as \u200ba fundraising tool to meet the donor requirements for the first GOP primary debate. Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), Trump&#8217;s closest competitor, \u200cpledged to &#8220;end the weaponization of government&#8221; if elected president.<\/p>\n<p>Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), who \u200dis also\u200d running for president in 2024, expressed concern about the &#8220;weaponization&#8221; of Biden&#8217;s Department of Justice and its use of \u2063&#8221;immense power against political opponents.&#8221; Scott accused the DOJ \u2063of\u200d targeting Republicans while protecting\u2063 Democrats.<\/p>\n<p>As the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/scotus-rules-in-texas-pro-life-cases-abortion-providers-can-sue-state-doj-challenge-dismissed-law-can-remain-in-effect\/\" title=\"SCOTUS Rules In Texas Pro-Life Cases: Abortion Providers Can Sue State, DOJ Challenge Dismissed, Law Can Remain In Effect\">legal battles continue<\/a>, \u200dthe question\u200b remains: Are these indictments a genuine pursuit of justice \u2064or a calculated distraction from Trump&#8217;s potential return to the political arena?<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\">Click here<\/a> to read more \u2063from The Washington \u200bExaminer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Washington Examiner&#8217;s Kaylee McGhee White questions if the recent indictments against former President Donald Trump are meant to divert attention from his potential 2024 presidential campaign.
