NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Former President Donald Trump continued to whine about his legal troubles, which he claims are politically motivated, a day ahead of his first criminal trial.

The GOP presumptive nominee will make history on Monday, April 15, becoming the first former president to be tried for felony charges, according to CNN.

Trump described himself as a "very popular and successful president" as he ranted about the hush money case in a Truth Social post on Sunday. 

After the failure of his delaying tactics, the MAGA spearhead is slated to walk into the court in less than 24 hours to witness jury selection, which might take at least a week.

Donald Trump rants on Truth Social ahead of the hush money trial

"Just four years ago I was a very popular and successful President of the United States, getting more votes than any sitting President in history," wrote Trump on Truth Social on Sunday.

He then reiterated his constant claims of the case being politically motivated, writing, "Tomorrow morning I'll be in Criminal Court, before a totally conflicted Judge, a Corrupt Prosecutor, a Legal System in CHAOS, a State being overrun by violent crime and corruption, and Crooked Joe Biden's henchmen' Rigging the System' against his Political Opponent, ME!"

"I will be fighting for myself, but, much more importantly, I will be fighting for our Country," noted Trump. 

He continued calling the case "election interference" and voiced his confidence about defeating President Joe Biden in the November election. 

The ex-POTUS asserted, "Election Interference like this has never happened in the USA before and, hopefully, will never happen again. We are now a Nation in serious Decline, a Failing Nation, but we will soon be a Great Nation Again. November 5th will be the most important day in the History of the United States. MAGA2024! SEE YOU TOMORROW."



 

During a recent Mar-a-Lago press conference, Trump said he would testify in the trial and vowed to "tell the truth."

Due to his ongoing criminal and civil cases, the real estate mogul's bid for a second White House term is filled with chaos.

Besides the hush money case, Trump faces three other indictments, two election subversion cases, one in Georgia and another in Washington DC, over his alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election results, and another criminal case for illegally retaining classified material after leaving the Oval Office.

He has pleaded not guilty to all the criminal charges and is demanding presidential immunity to protect himself.

Internet mocks Donald Trump over his Truth Social rant 

One wrote, "Someone is freaking out tonight," and another added, "I'm sure Melania will visit you plenty whilst you serve your sentence."

"He really is losing it. He just lies and lies and lies," noted a person, while someone else quipped, "Bundle up Buttercup. Going to be a cold and Stormy day."

An individual expressed, "Don't do the crime if you can't do the time."

One more asked, "Don’t popular presidents get reelected?" and another person mocked, "Who lost the popular vote twice."

"No he was not successful, he is a born loser," declared a netizen.
