According to CoinMeta, U.S. President Donald Trump once again issued a statement criticizing the Democratic Party for threatening Republican donors and members, describing such behavior as "unprecedented" and "completely illegal." He called on those involved to report the incidents immediately to the Department of Justice or to directly contact him. Trump stated that those responsible should bear legal responsibility and may even face imprisonment. He also urged the Senate, the Department of Justice, and the House of Representatives to take action, saying that the Senate should not continue to be pressured, in order to prevent the Republicans from losing elections or facing more serious consequences.
