‘US going to hell’: Donald Trump attacks hush money case in grievance-filled Mar-a-Lago speech

The indictment has led to a surge of support for Trump in Republican polls and a surge in cash donations. But many commentators are sceptical about whether Trump could prevail in a general election. 

The Lincoln Project, an anti-Trump group, said in a statement: "Tonight at Mar-a-Lago we saw a paranoid and delusional speech cheered on by fanatical cult members who do not care about democracy and American values. Trump got the circus he wanted. The rest of the GOP has fallen in line." 

Bill Burton, a former White House deputy press secretary under Barack Obama, was also unimpressed. 

This is the worst I've ever seen Trump," he tweeted. "I watch all of his speeches – saw him ramble in Waco, watched him ramble in his 'announcement' to run again – this is the very worst of it. Puffy face, bloodshot eyes, his precious hair a mess. And his cadence just plain sad."
