Bragg and the grand jury’s investigation of Trump has received heavy backlash from Trump supporters and Republican lawmakers like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA), who flew to New York to join the crowd in protesting the indictment of the former president, which he calls a “witch hunt.”
“There have been many people throughout history that had been arrested and persecuted by radical, corrupt governments. And it’s beginning today in New York City. And I just can’t believe it’s happening, but I’ll always support him. He’s done nothing wrong,” the congresswoman said.
