In a statement in response to the news that he is being charged in Manhattan with paying hush money to porn star Stormy Daniels, former US President Trump says he is “completely innocent”. He speaks of “a witch hunt” and calls the course of events “political persecution and election interference at the highest level in history.” On his own social medium ‘Truth Social’ he also writes in block letters that the indictment is “an unprecedented attack on our country and on our once free and fair elections”.
