WATCH: Former Trump Official Demands Action From Other GOP Candidates Amid Trump Indictment – ‘Drop Out, Announce Support For Trump’

On Thursday, U.S. Ambassador to Germany and former Director of National Intelligence Ric Grenell was interviewed on Newsmax’s ‘Rob Schmitt Tonight’ where he urged all Republican presidential candidates and officials to “unite” in supporting 45th President and leading 2024 presidential candidate Donald Trump in response to his frivolous indictment.

“I think that it’s really important to understand what Democrats are doing to Republicans. And you’re naive to think that this is just about Donald Trump,” Grenell began.

“This is about every single Republican; anyone who challenges the power of the Democrats,” he added.

“And so I think… all the other Republican candidates should drop out tonight. They should announce their support for Donald Trump. We should unify as a party and say we are not going to allow this to happen to the United States of America,” he said.

“I think for the people who maybe have been on the fence about Trump, maybe they don’t like mean tweets or something, I think they have to understand that you have to stop asking Donald Trump to be a nice guy because nice guys are what the Democrats want,” he continued.

“They want us as Republicans to take this high road and they don’t want a fighter. They don’t want someone who is going to come in and change the system. So they keep calling for someone presidential or something and I think they’ve got to stop,” Grenell said.

On Tuesday, Trump is expected to be fingerprinted and have a mug shot taken in New York. After the booking is complete, Trump will appear before a judge for his arraignment where he will face 30 currently unknown charges due to Bragg’s sealed indictment.

Trump’s campaign announced on Sunday that after he flies back from New York to Palm Beach, Florida, on Tuesday, Trump is set to deliver remarks about his experience at his Mar-A-Lago club.

Trump’s lawyers are bracing for Judge Justice Juan Merchan to place a gag order on Trump in an attempt to prevent him from speaking about his arrest on Tuesday.

Under New York law, the fine for breaking a gag order holds a penalty of either 30 days in jail or a $1,000 fine.

Bragg, who has been exposed as being funded by a group supported by far-left billionaire George Soros, was able to get a Manhattan grand jury to vote to indict Trump on Thursday.

Adult film “star” Stormy Daniels was ordered to pay Trump $300,000 after losing a defamation case against him. However, on Thursday, a Manhattan grand jury voted to indict President Trump over a $130,000 payment to Daniels made by his former lawyer and now-convicted liar, Michael Cohen.

This makes Trump the first American president to ever face criminal charges.

The Color of Change PAC, the “nation’s largest online racial justice organization”, which was given $1 million in May 2021 from Soros, gave $1 million to Bragg but later pulled back half of their donation.
