After the sham trial adjourned, President Trump visited the Sanaa convenient store in Harlem where Jose Alba was robbed, attacked, and wrongfully accused of murder by D.A. Alvin Bragg after being forced to defend his life. Trump was met with enthusiastic crowds of supporters. He was treated like a rock star.
Reality and media narrative is a different as Pravda and the miserable Soviet experience.

Trump vows to ‘straighten New York out’ while visiting bodega where clerk Jose Alba was hit with murder charge for stabbing an ex-con in self-defense
By: Jack Morphet. Georgett Roberts, Katherine Donlev, April 16, 2024:
Former President Donald Trump made a post-court visit Tuesday to the Manhattan bodega where clerk Jose Alba infamously stabbed an ex-con to death in self-defense two years ago — a case that drew widespread outrage after he was initially charged with murder — with the city native vowing to “straighten New York out.”
The Republican presidential contender stopped by the Sanaa Convenient Store, formerly known as the Blue Moon Convenient Store, in Harlem to meet with the store’s co-owner Maad Ahmed and small business advocate Francisco Marte.
“You should be allowed to have a gun. If you had a gun, you’d never get robbed, you’d never get robbed, that would be the end of it,” Trump told the bodega workers.
Ahmed told the former president that the store is still grappling with rampant crime — which appeared to shock the law-and-order politician.
“What do you do? Isn’t it crazy? Is it almost a way of doing business, you getting robbed?” Trump asked.
Ahmed agreed that criminals “would respect the store” if he kept a firearm on hand, and indicated that he would apply for one at Trump’s suggestion.
Alba’s attorney, Rich Cardinale, warned Trump, however, that using the weapon could land the workers in the same situation that his client faced in the 2022 incident: “If you use a gun and you’re defending yourself lawfully, you will go to jail.”
While the murder charges against Alba were later dropped — following growing pressure from the public — the worker was so traumatized he went back to the Dominican Republic, where he remained on Tuesday, sources said.
“I have never voted, because I’ve been working, but this time I will. We need Donald Trump back in the White House because he’s a strong guy,” said Ahmed, an immigrant from Yemen and a US citizen, told The Post ahead of Trump’s arrival.
“What happened to Jose was very hard for me. Jose was defending himself from the guy who came behind the counter. All for $1 worth of chips,” Ahmed, 36, said.
When asked by The Post how he would make bodegas safer, Trump said it would boil down to allowing the NYPD to “do their jobs.”
“Every week they’re being robbed two or three times, it’s crazy. You know what? The police can stop it but they have to be allowed to do their job,” the ex-president said.
“You have to stop crime and we’re going to let the police do their job. They have to be given back their authority. We’re making a big play New York. I love this city and it’s gotten so bad in the last three years, four years, and we’re going to straighten New York out.”
Trump also skirted questions about his own criminal trial, saying that the real crime was happening in bodegas — which he blamed on Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg.
“Alvin Bragg does nothing, he goes after guys like Trump who did nothing wrong. Violent killers and murderers … There are hundreds of murderers all over the city, they know who they are, and they don’t pick them up. They go after Trump.”

And Katie Couric smears and defames people who truly want their country back from the radicals, jihadists, perverts, etc. – that is, those that cheered Trump in Harlem as he visited that bodega – as “anti-intellectual.” Which clearly shows that “intellectual” in this context is nothing more than a code word for arrogant, condescending, nose-up-in-the-air elitist snob who has utter contempt for those who have no desire to be reduced to serfdom or submit to the globalists’ totalitarian rule.
It’s a Donkey rebellion. They’ve trown off the pack saddles.
They’re flying Donkeys.
Inside every Donkey is a free bird waiting to get out.
The little boy that grew into a full blown NAZI is supporting many RADICALIZED LEFT LEANING, ANTI-AMERICANS who have BOUGHT THEIR WAY INTO POLITICAL POSITIONS. Now they are attempting to “FUNDAMENTALLY TRANSFORM” America into a NAZI-COMMUNIST ameriKKKa!!
Let’s hope by the court case he can persuade New Yorkers Independents and Bidenites to vote for him.
