Trump made the comparison as top conservatives and Republicans are set to gather in Phoenix for a conference organized by Turning Point USA, where Donald Trump Jr. will be one of the featured speakers, according to News Week.
"Our Country is SICK inside, very much like a person dying of Cancer," the former president wrote Saturday. "The Crooked FBI, the so-called Department of 'Justice,' and 'Intelligence,' all parts of the Democrat Party and System, is the Cancer. These Weaponized Thugs and Tyrants must be dealt with, or our once great and beautiful Country will die!!!"
In a post earlier on Saturday, Trump made reference to reports that the FBI had notified Twitter about users potentially violating the social media company's terms of service.
"This (the FBI's wild and crazy relationship with Twitter) is absolutely a coordinated effort to change Election Results!" Trump wrote, adding "and it worked, but they got caught. This is why people protested in Washington."
The former president continued, "Our 2020 Presidential Election was Crooked, Rigged, and Stolen, and yet the Unselect Committee of Political Hacks & Thugs didn't spend any time investigating this outrage!"
Trump and his allies have repeatedly made unfounded claims that the 2020 presidential election was stolen due to widespread voter fraud and other irregularities.
Those claims have been echoed by Arizona gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake, one of several prominent conservatives due to speak at the Turning Point USA conference. Lake has filed a lawsuit seeking to overturn her recent election defeat against her Democratic challenger, Katie Hobbs, alleging that hundreds of thousands of votes were cast illegally.
