Trump blasts ‘deranged’ prosecutor Jack Smith after report says prez-elect would’ve been convicted had he lost to Harris

DONALD Trump has ripped the prosecutor investigating allegations of election interference against him, labeling him “deranged and a lamebrain.”

Jack Smith’s bombshell dossier reveals the president-elect would’ve been convicted in his federal case had he not defeated Kamala Harris in November. 

Trump was indicted on a federal level in 2023 over allegations he tried to overturn the 2020 election.

It was one of four indictments leveled against the president-elect after he left office. 

Trump was hit with several charges, but the case never made it to trial before the November presidential election and was subsequently dropped.

However, Smith’s findings were published just one week before Trump’s inauguration, when he will be sworn in as the 47th president.

Trump took to Truth Social after Smith’s report was released. 

In one post, he labeled Smith as “deranged and a lamebrain.”

Smith’s report claimed Trump tried to retain power after losing to Biden by “using fraud and deceit.”

He also claimed Trump pressured election officials at the state level in a desperate bid to try and change the results.

Trump was charged with conspiracy to defraud the US, obstruction and conspiracy to obstruct, and conspiracy against rights.

“The department’s view that the Constitution prohibits the continued indictment and prosecution of a president is categorical and does not turn on the gravity of the crimes charged, the strength of the government’s proof, or the merits of the prosecution, which the office stands fully behind,” it said.

Smith revealed that his team had “admissible evidence,” which he believes would’ve helped them get a conviction against Trump – had he not won the 2024 election.

Trump vehemently denied any allegations of election interference following his indictment in 2023.

The president-elect filed a desperate appeal to try and stop Smith’s report from being released.

But Aileen Cannon, a district judge, didn’t rule in Trump’s favor.

Smith shelved Trump’s election interference case following the tycoon’s win in November.

At the time, Smith referred to the Justice Department policy that shields presidents from prosecution.

The case was dismissed without prejudice, meaning charges could be leveled against Trump when he leaves office.

DESPERATE APPEAL

Smith’s decision to drop the case marked the end of the Department of Justice’s attempted bid to try and blame Trump for the Capitol riots that took place on January 6, 2021.

The report was published just three days after Trump was sentenced in his business records case.

Trump was given a sentence of unconditional discharge, meaning he was spared jail.

The tycoon was sentenced months after he was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records.

This stemmed from a cover-up payment made to the adult film star Stormy Daniels

As Trump was sentenced before his inauguration, he will be the first convicted felon to serve as president.

Trump had desperately turned to the New York Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court in a bid to delay the sentencing.

During the sentencing, Judge Juan Merchan, who presided over the court case, warned: “To be clear, the protections afforded the office of president are not a mitigating factor.

“They do not reduce the seriousness of the crime or justify its commission in any way.”

Trump also faced a probe into allegations that he stored classified documents.

This case was dropped last summer.

He was also indicted over election interference allegations by the state of Georgia.

Trump was the first ex-president to have a mugshot taken after being arrested in August 2023.
