The New York case against Trump was one of those all too frequent examples of prosecutorial overreach. It was a bullshit charge based on a highly creative definition of election law. If I had been a juror, Trump would have gotten off due to a hung jury.
Having said that, Trump is a criminal many times over, and deserves long prison sentences for what he did in Georgia and elsewhere. So I won’t shed any tears. But this particular case was ridiculous. One more example of a legal system that is out of control.
I expect the Supreme Court to protect him from the more serious charges, until he’s safely in office. His campaign is nothing more than an attempt to avoid prison. If he loses, he goes to jail.
