Florida Rep. Byron Donalds appeared on “Meet the Press” this week and pushed back on host Peter Alexander’s ongoing legal campaign against Trump.
Donald pointed out that this was a clear case of election interference, while Alexander has been trying to imply that Biden had nothing to do with it.
Alexander was arguing, seemingly trying to convince Donald that this was all completely normal and on the upswing.
This is typical of the media. They think their job is to represent the Democrats against the Republicans.

Byron Donalds clashes with NBC host over Trump accusations: ‘Two levels of justice…obvious’
Florida Republican Rep. Byron Donalds feuded with NBC’s Peter Alexander on Sunday’s “Meet the Press” after the host questioned Donalds about Biden Talk of a “two-tiered justice system” under the president.
The Florida congressman, who is reportedly on former President Trump’s shortlist to be his 2024 running mate, believes the Supreme Court should step in and overturn Trump’s felony conviction in a Manhattan court last month. He believes the judge violated Trump’s constitutional rights by not naming crimes in the original indictment.
“You’re not allowed to do that. Every judge knows that. That’s why everyone believes the appeal will be overturned. Because it’s to interfere with the presidential election. That’s the problem,” Donald argued.
However, Alexander staunchly defended Biden’s Justice Department and argued that the prosecution of Hunter Biden demonstrated “fair justice.”

Democrats have weaponized our institutions to target their political opponents and protect themselves.
Their laws against Trump interfere with the election and demonstrate our country’s two-tiered justice system.
This is political.
This is wrong.

Donald has been a good ally of Trump. It will be interesting to see if he plays a role in the new Trump administration.
