‘Joe Biden just secured Trump’s nomination’ in 2024 after indictment: Republican Representative Nancy Mace says charges will help former president – and asks why Biden gets away with Burisma ‘bribery’
- Trump is indicted on seven federal charges, including conspiracy, violation of espionage law and holding classified documents
- “They have one standard for Donald Trump and another standard for everyone in this thing,” Mace said
- The entire Democrat Leviathan has mobilized against President Trump. But we’re going to have a GOP primary?” asked GOP Representative Wesley Hunt
GOP Representative Nancy Mace said President Biden’s Justice Department had “secured Donald Trump’s nomination for president” by indicting the former president over classified documents.
“I want to be very clear here, Donald Trump and I have had our ups and downs,” the South Carolina Republican told Fox News.
“Make no mistake, this is the executive tonight trying to take out their biggest opponent for the 2024 presidency of the United States,” she continued. “Joe Biden Just Secured Donald Trump’s 2024 Republican Nomination.”
Trump has been charged with seven federal charges — including conspiracy, a violation of the espionage law and holding classified documents — related to the documents he took with him after leaving the White House.
Trump’s most recent indictment – which he called a prosecution – marks the first time in US history that a former president has faced federal charges.

Mace spoke out about how President Biden, along with former Vice President Mike Pence and every president since Ronald Reagan, has mishandled classified documents.
“They have one standard for Donald Trump and another standard for everyone in this thing. If you look at the documents that President Biden had in his garage, thousands of boxes of God knows where in places all over the country that we don’t even know yet. Hillary Clinton has a server in her bathroom in her house with classified information on private email servers. Everyone is held to a different standard, except Donald Trump.”
ABC News reported that the 76-year-old faces four separate counts, all of which carry a potential prison sentence of up to 20 years.
These include: conspiracy to obstruct justice; withholding any document or record; corruptly concealing any document or record; and hiding a document in a federal investigation.

One count carries a 10-year prison sentence: deliberately withholding national defense information.
And the last two counts each have a maximum of five years: plan to conceal and misrepresentations and misrepresentations. Trump’s indictment remains classified, but his decision to make it public means the FBI could open it as early as Friday, ahead of next Tuesday’s Miami court hearing.
Mace also linked the charges against Trump to its FBI oversight committee’s investigation and handling of alleged foreign payments to Biden and his family.
“Every time Biden comes under the microscope, every time we expose corruption by Joe Biden and his family, there is an indictment against Donald Trump.”
Donald Trump is not a fan of mine. he put me first last year. I’m not a shill, but I see this, how unfair it’s been,” she continued.
Other House Republicans have fired attacks at the DOJ, even beginning to question why other candidates are running against Trump in 2024.
“Any candidate for president who refuses to immediately, unequivocally and publicly declare the [DOJ]”The … politically motivated witch hunt against President Trump is nothing short of an enemy of the people,” wrote GOP Rep. Andy Ogles, Tenn., on Twitter.
The entire Democrat Leviathan has mobilized against President Trump. The DOJ, the FBI, New York prosecutors, Georgia prosecutors, the mainstream media, etc. But are we getting a GOP primary? America, Donald Trump will be the Republican nominee,” said first-year Maryland Republican Representative Wesley Hunt.
This is Trump’s second indictment this year – he was previously charged by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg in a case related to hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels.
