WATCH: Trump SLAMS The NY Trial As A 'Witch Hunt' Coordinated By 'Washington' Ahead Of Opening Statements - 'This Is Done As Election Interference'

Shortly before his Manhattan hush money trial on Monday, 45th President Donald J. Trump picked apart Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's (D) case against him, claiming the prosecution was nothing other than an "election interference" scheme overseen by the radical Democrats in the Biden administration. "These are all Biden trials. This is done as election interference -- everybody knows it. I'm here instead of being able to be in Pennsylvania and Georgia, and lots of other places campaigning, and it is very unfair. Fortunately, the poll numbers are very good. They have been going up because people understand what is going on."

Trump continued, adding, "This is a witch hunt, and it is a shame. And it comes out of Washington. It is coordination with Washington -- everything -- including the DA's office. It is in coordination with Washington." Trump also argued that this is done "for the purposes of hurting the opponent of the worst president in the history of our country."

Trump's remarks come after the 45th president went after Alvin Bragg in a bombshell Truth Social post, saying of the Manhattan DA, "The Corrupt Soros Funded District Attorney, Alvin Bragg, who has totally lost control of Violent Crime in New York, says that the payment of money to a lawyer, for legal services rendered, should not be referred to in a Ledger as LEGAL EXPENSE. What other term would be more appropriate???" Trump backed up his remarks by adding, "Believe it or not, this is the pretext under which I was Indicted, and that Legal Scholars and Experts CANNOT BELIEVE. It is also the perfect Crooked Joe Biden NARRATIVE - To be STUCK in a courtroom, and not be allowed to campaign for President of the United States!"

Trump is correct, and many top legal scholars agree that the case against him is utterly baseless. For instance, distinguished constitutional scholar Alan Dershowitz -- no man of the right -- told the National Desk in March, "This is targeting and weaponizing not the American way of justice. A very sad day for justice. Look, we haven't seen the indictment. We can't be sure; maybe they have a videotape of him shooting somebody on Fifth Avenue. But based on what we know about this case, it may be one of the weakest cases in my six years of experience." As Fox News previously reported, Trump faces 34 counts of falsifying business records in the first degree -- ultimately based on a novel legal theory, as ABC News adds.
