Trump said he would not rule out compensating some Jan. 6 defendants through the administration’s proposed “anti-weaponization” fund, including people charged with assaulting police officers.
Asked whether those who attacked police should receive taxpayer-funded payouts, Trump replied: “I wouldn’t be inclined to say so, but I have to see it.”
He defended the fund, arguing that many Jan. 6 defendants were unfairly targeted, saying: “People have been destroyed. Lives have been destroyed,” and, “Many of those people should be compensated.”
