"They" want to arrest me, former President Donald Trump wrote on his social media site Truth Social on Sunday.
"They want to interfere — to a point where Joe Biden is willing to arrest his opponent who is leading him in the polls by a very large number," Trump wrote, citing his 2024 bid for the president.
The post included a video of Trump saying the same thing at a Saturday speech before the Faith and Freedom Coalition meeting, which he concludes saying, "but we're not going to let that happen."
Trump was referring to the 37-count indictiment against him for allegedly mishandling classified documents. Special counsel Jack Smith accused Trump of refusing to comply with National Archives' requests to return documents he took with him when he left the White House in January 2020.
Trump maintains the documents are his and that he, as president, had the ability to declassify them under the Presidential Records Act. Trump has made conflicting statements on whether he did so, but has at times said he made a blanket statement that all were declassified.
