New Delhi:
In his first public address since being charged over hush money payments to a porn star, former US president Donald Trump claimed that the case was "an insult to America". The 76-year-old addressed supporters and the media from his Florida home.
Here are the top 5 quotes from his address:
- We have to save our country. Never thought anything like this could happen in America
- The only crime that I've committed is to fearlessly defend our nation from those who seek to destroy it.
- This fake case was brought only to interfere with the upcoming 2024 elections, and it should be dropped immediately
- Our country is going to hell. It's an insult to our country. The world is already laughing at us - for our open borders and the withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan.
- While we are living through the darkest hours of American history, I can say that at least for this moment right now, I am in great spirits.
