Trump compares himself to Mandela as he faces criminal charges

Trump likened himself to the former South Africa’s President on Monday as he claimed he is being targeted by federal and state prosecutors because of his politics, Sky News reports.

Trump, who was in New Hampshire to register for its presidential primary, held a rally where he attacked his successor Joe Biden’s response to the Israel-Hamas conflict and vowed to build an Iron Dome-inspired defence shield over the States. “I don’t mind being Nelson Mandela because I’m doing it for a reason,” Trump told revved-up supporters in Derry, New Hampshire.

Mandela, who died in 2013, spent 27 years behind bars for opposing South Africa’s apartheid system. In 1993, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
