Trump’s comments came in his latest exclusive on-camera interview with Breitbart News last Thursday evening, where the former president and leading GOP candidate for the presidency sat for nearly an hour and discussed many topics.
“They gave him a traffic ticket for which other people suffered greatly, many other people with the same kind of thing,” Trump said of the deal prosecutors tried to offer Hunter Biden. “I don’t think there’s ever been anything like this because there’s so many different elements but he was given a traffic ticket and the judge was—she is a brilliant woman and she was, I think, very indignant about it. I don’t think she was happy about it.”
Trump appointed Judge Maryellen Noreika—who was backed by both of Delaware’s Democrat U.S. Senators, Chris Coons and Tom Carper—in 2017. She was confirmed by the U.S. Senate by voice vote in 2018. Now she finds herself at the center of one of the biggest legal proceedings in U.S. history as she oversees federal charges against Hunter Biden on tax issues and firearm problems.
