Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s prosecution of Donald Trump is a legal venture so misguided that no other Democratic state or federal prosecutor was willing to join him. While we can quibble over the details, there is a spectrum to the legitimacy of the allegations in the documents case in Florida and the RICO case in Georgia. In New York, there’s simply no legal basis. As a former elections lawyer, let me explain:
Erick - I trust your analysis that this case is BS. It'd be interesting to get your actual perspective on the other cases that clearly do have merit though I suspect it'd be tough to be a talk radio host and stay employed if you gave a long spiel about a prosecution of Trump being legitimate. This case will clearly not result in any consequences for Trump (in fact it will greatly help him by allowing him to paint all of his prosecutions under a wide brush of "lawfare")
I mean none of this could have been avoided. Do you expect a guy to (1) not cheat on his wife who had just given birth to their son with a porn star (2) not pay to keep her quiet about it and (3) not falsify the nature of those payments. I mean he is only a man, not a god.
Also this took place during a time while Trump was hard at work tirelessly proving that Obama was born in Kenya (a foray into politics that incidentally legitimized his political bonafides with the high information voters in the base of our party). He was working hard and clearly needed to let off some steam so go easy on him will ya.
The silver lining (miniscule, but still silver) is that the City of New York (not you or me) has to pay for this sideshow. Poor little NYC, already bleeding sanctuary city cash.
