Former President Donald Trump has urged supporters going to Miami protests against his indictment to ensure the demonstrations remain peaceful, so as to not hand any victories to the corporate media, federal authorities, or opposing political candidates.
Speaking exclusively to Roger Stone about protests planned at the Miami courthouse – where Trump is due to be arrested on Tuesday – the 45th President said the American people have “plenty” to protest about – and they should do so “peacefully”.
“We need strength in our country now. Our country is being taken away from us; our country’s going communist, it’s going Marxist… the people of our country aren’t that way, but the people running it are,” he lamented.
“We need strength at this point, and everyone’s afraid to do anything, they’re afraid to talk, and they have to go out and they have to protest peacefully.”

“Look, our country has to protest. We have plenty to protest, we’ve lost everything. We’ve lost our borders, we’ve lost our election integrity, we’ve lost respect all over the world,” he added.
Trump highlighted a previous peaceful protest against his separate, state-level indictment in New York City, which was led by Gavin Wax’s New York Young Republican Club, as an example for others.
