Trump’s Gag Roar: Campaign Rejoices While He Sparks Up!
Donald Trump’s administration may be showing signs of frustration as a federal court’s gag order has blocked its ability to promote certain information regarding a case involving Epstein, a convicted sex offender, and two other individuals.
The case follows the allegations against Epstein, claiming that he was involved in a scheme that allowed him to take part in a pay-to-play arrangement with foreign oligarchs. The Attorney General of the United States has been working to get the case in a federal court in order to reach a resolution. However, during the process, a gag order was imposed that blocked both parties from making statements related to the case in public.
The Trump camp has been incredibly critical of the gag order, claiming that it infringes on First Amendment freedoms. Although this case cannot be discussed publicly, the Trump campaign is still using it to its advantage by framing it as a battle between terms of free speech. In an attempt to deflect attention from the ongoing Mueller investigation, the campaign has touted the importance of the First Amendment by contrasting it with the gag order imposed in this case.
It appears that Trump may seethe at the gag order, as it blocks his ability from talking about one of the most important cases of his administration. However, his campaign is relishing the opportunity to show that their rights to free speech are being suppressed as part of a political scheme. The campaign will use this case to further its narrative of the Trump administration’s having to battle untold forces working against it.
