An indictment of former President Donald Trump would not have happened if he did not opt to seek office again, Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) asserted on Tuesday as others expressed support for the former president hours ahead of his arraignment.

As crowds clash outside of the New York City courthouse, Trump is seeing support from notable lawmakers on social media.

“The indictment wouldn’t happen if President Trump didn’t run for office,” Jordan said on social media as many speculate that the far-left is only targeting him again in order to stop his presidential bid:

“We won’t stop supporting President Trump,” Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX) said. “He’s been under relentless assault ever since he came down the escalator. The Witch Hunters will be DEFEATED and President Trump will WIN!!”:

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), a former Trump challenger, also expressed support for the former president.

“If Alvin Bragg only indicts Donald Trump, everyone gets the joke… Bragg is a Left-Wing Democrat who hates Donald Trump and he is targeting Trump by any means necessary,” he said:

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) posted a video on social media explaining that everyone should be worried about the abuse of the justice system.

“Today is a bad day for all of us. Today, American politics crosses a line that it’s never going to come back from after today,” he said, explaining that it is opening the door for every prosecutor in America “that wants to make a name for themselves,” to “have permission to basically go after someone in the other party.”

“What really is damaging is that the charges are absurd,” he continued.

“You’re talking about a misdemeanor — if proven — a misdemeanor, that had a statute of limitation that expired,” he said, adding it is “built on the testimony of a convicted liar, of a convicted liar.”

Rubio predicted this will “permanently change politics in America forever.”

“Whether you like Trump or not, we are going to regret the state for a very long time,” he added:

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) also spoke out in support of the president, traveling to New York City to do so.
