On the morning of his arraignment, Trump also spoke out, demanding the trial be transferred from Manhattan to Staten Island, attacking the judge presiding over the proceedings.
After Trump was charged in the Stormy Daniels hush money situation, Rep. Greene attempted to speak to the audience using a megaphone while seated on a bench.
Crowd Yells Abuse
She called the situation a “travesty” and claimed it shouldn’t be occurring in America. However, she was scarcely audible over the cries of the audience, “Go back to Georgia you fucking b****!”
“F*** you, you white trash Nazi,” yelled one angry man in the crowd.
