As the 2024 presidential elections approach, former US President Donald Trump has found himself stuck in legal trouble. He is facing a whopping 37 criminal accusations. This is the first time in American history that a former president has faced criminal accusations of this gravity. The claims leveled against Trump are astounding. It is reported that he illegally kept files of highly classified information, including critical US military plans and even nuclear programs.
Surprisingly, these sensitive data were discovered during an FBI search at his luxury private club, Mar-a-Lago, Florida. If he is proven guilty, the former president may face serious consequences, including a lengthy prison sentence.
Following the news, many people have taken to their social media accounts to share their opinions on it. One of them is the UFC middleweight star, Sean Strickland.
