Trump shares statement from social media critic saying ex-president is 'going to prison'

Donald Trump amplified another Truth Social user taking potshots at the former president after he was indicted again in the federal election interference case.

Special counsel Jack Smith filed a superseding indictment Tuesday that trims some of the allegations to get around the U.S. Supreme Court's immunity ruling but keeps all four charges initially brought against the ex-president, and Trump reposted a supportive message posted on X by new ally Nicole Shanahan.

“I'll admit I used to kind of roll my eyes when people claimed that President Trump was being 'persecuted,'" said Shanahan, who had been Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s running mate. "I was looking at it through the distorted filter of the media. Well, I just completed my first cross-examination in our second New York Ballot Access case, where the DNC-aligned PAC attorneys questioned me like a criminal. OK, I get it now. Our justice system is clearly being co-opted and abused by nefarious people with malevolent political agendas.”

The former president posted Shanahan's remarks Tuesday evening, shortly after the indictment was filed, and then for some reason before 9 a.m. Wednesday he reposted a mocking reply on his Truth Social feed by a low-follower user who calls themselves "Dingus."

"Youre a convited felon. You shouldnt be any where near a campaign trail," said that person, whose user name is @davedog876. "Youre going to prison."

"Dingus," whose bio reads simply "Human" and uses a Spongebob Squarepants meme as an avatar, has only two followers and follows just 18 other accounts, and Trump's repost remained live on his feed for at least an hour after he shared it for unclear reasons.
