Monday, October 28, 2024 – Former US President Donald Trump mused on whether his father made it to Heaven as he speculated what the late Fred Trump’s reaction would be to all the criminal investigations against him.
Trump
lamented that he was under investigation more than the “great late Alphonse
Capone,” to a packed crowd of some 20,000 people at Madison Square Garden in
New York City Sunday, October 27.
“My father
is looking down on me right now… he was a tough guy. But he was legit. And I
know my mother’s in heaven. I’m not 100% sure of my father, but it’s close,”
Trump said to laughs from the fired-up crowd.
“They’ve weaponized the Justice Department
against their political opponent,” the former US president said.
“But he’s
looking down at me right now and he’s saying, how the hell did this happen to
my son? He’s not a bad person”
Donald Trump's father, Fred Trump, died from
pneumonia. Fred Trump was a successful real estate developer in New York
City and passed away on June 25, 1999, at the age of 93.
Trump has
been charged in four criminal cases, involving charges related to election
interference, hoarding classified documents, and paying “hush money,” to porn
star Stormy Daniels. He became the first president to be convicted on felony
charges in May when he was found guilty on 34 counts in the “hush money” case.
Sentencing was delayed until after the election.
The former
president has also been the subject of multiple civil suits and was sentenced
to pay $454 million in a New York civil fraud trial. He was also sentenced to
pay sex columnist E. Jean Caroll $5 million in a civil defamation suit.
He has
repeatedly denied wrongdoing.
