Donald Trump Rages at His Enemies in Furious Thanksgiving Message

Donald Trump went after his political enemies in a Thanksgiving message posted on Truth Social on Thursday.

The former president focused his attacks on those involved in his civil fraud trial as well as on President Joe Biden.

He wrote: "Happy Thanksgiving to ALL, including the Racist & Incompetent Attorney General of New York State, Letitia 'Peekaboo' James, who has let Murder & Violent Crime FLOURISH, & Businesses FLEE; the Radical Left Trump Hating Judge, a 'Psycho,' Arthur Engoron, who Criminally Defrauded the State of New York, & ME, by purposely Valuing my Assets at a 'tiny' Fraction of what they are really worth in order to convict me of Fraud before even a Trial, or seeing any PROOF, & used his Politically Biased & Corrupt Campaign Finance Violator, Chief Clerk Alison Greenfield, to sit by his side on the 'Bench' & tell him what to do; & Crooked Joe Biden, who has WEAPONIZED his Department of Injustice against his Political Opponent, & allowed our Country to go to HELL; & all of the other Radical Left Lunatics, Communists, Fascists, Marxists, Democrats, & RINOS, who are seriously looking to DESTROY OUR COUNTRY.

He added: "Have no fear, however, we will WIN the Presidential Election of 2024, & MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!"

The frontrunner for the 2024 Republican presidential nomination is facing a civil fraud trial brought against him by New York Attorney General Letitia James. The $250 million lawsuit alleges Trump and executives at his company fraudulently inflated his wealth on his financial statements, which were used to secure loans and insurance. Judge Arthur Engoron is overseeing the trial and has already ruled the defendants had committed fraud. Allison Greenfield is Engoron's law clerk.

A gag order in the case previously prevented Trump from criticizing court officials, but last week a state intermediate appeals court, headed by Judge David Friedman, granted a temporary stay on the order, effectively suspending it due to the "constitutional and statutory rights at issue."

Engoron had previously fined Trump $15,000 in total for violating the order twice after commenting about Greenfield, including falsely claiming she was in a relationship with Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer.

The gag order will remain lifted until Judge Friedman rules on whether or not it is unconstitutional.

Newsweek has contacted representatives for Trump by email for comment.

Meanwhile, Trump complained that there was no food left for him at a luncheon for Texas state patrol officers he attended last weekend to celebrate the federal holiday, which began in 1789 under then-President George Washington.

Many major retailers will be closed during the holiday while parts of the Central and Eastern U.S. are expected to be impacted by a major storm.
