An attorney for Donald Trump says that his supporters should not be made to believe that he has legal problems, following a decision to have the former president’s name taken off the Republican ballot in Maine.
Christina Bobb accused opponents of the former president of putting out “propaganda” to harm his 2024 presidential run.
It comes after Mr Trump was removed from the ballot in Colorado last month, under the 14th Amendment’s ban on insurrectionists holding public office. The decision to also block him from the ballot in Maine was handed down on Thursday by state secretary Shenna Bellows.
Speaking to Newsmax on Sunday, Ms Bobb suggested that Ms Bellows be impeached for her decision, and accused her of election interference.

The problem is, they won’t accept it, even if we offer it directly. It’s about as effective as trying to convince a religious person to leave their religion by presenting good reasons to leave.
They’ll just end up spouting some thought-terminating-clichés and doubling down on their “unshakable faith.” So his attorney is wrong, because they would vote for him even if he was found to be worse than John Wayne Gacy.
He could rape an aborted fetus on live TV and they’d cheer him on.
