Asa Hutchinson Calls on Trump to ‘End His Campaign' After Indictment
2023-06-09
[Breitbart] Presidential candidate and former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R) is calling on former President Donald Trump to end his presidential campaign following the news of federal prosecutors indicting the former president.

"With the news that Donald Trump has been indicted for the second time, our country finds itself in a position that weakens our democracy," Hutchinson said in a statement released by the Asa for American campaign, accusing Trump of disregarding the Constitution and disrespecting the rule of law.

"Donald Trump’s actions — from his willful disregard for the Constitution to his disrespect for the rule of law — should not define our nation or the Republican Party," he continued.

"This is a sad day for our country," he said, ultimately demanding Trump end his presidential campaign.

"While Donald Trump is entitled to the presumption of innocence, the ongoing criminal proceedings will be a major distraction," he said. "This reaffirms the need for Donald Trump to respect the office and end his campaign."

#9  If Trump quit his campaign, that would be just dandy for Hutchinson who is also running.

#3  Asa trying to be relevant but he is too insignificant to troll. The Chris Christie buffet troll was masterful.

#2  But I thought all accused were innocent of charges until proven guilty ?

It's just gone too far. The political system and the rule of law are both fok'd. For the life of me, I cannot understand why DJT continues the political effort. I would be on the next flight to Aberdeenshire, seldom if ever to return.

He tried, it was simply too far gone.
