I really hope he gets indicted for both trying to interfere with election process in GA, and the stealing classified document case at the federal level.
@@FRANKSNAKE71 it means these idiots are obsessed w Trump to a pathological degree. The country is collapsing culturally, militarily and economically and half the public thinks “getting” Trump on a comically weak, convoluted documents case that the DA concocted out of whole cloth, is the most important issue facing the country. The case is a loser. It will ultimately be dismissed. Trump won’t spend 2 seconds in jail.
That Edwards hooey was ridiculous and it fit the times. Man though…I wish we could go back those times. Today politics has gotten worse and the politicians are no longer good at hiding the fact they are a-holes.
Very concise and easily understandable explanation. However, the one thing it left out was WHY this case is seemingly weaker than the Edwards case despite the lines connecting the nodes on the graphs being stronger. Because it is a state case alleging falsified business records, which in New York has a 2 year statute of limitations since it is a misdemeanor (which has already passed even accounting for Trump's time in DC while he was President, which doesn't count towards the statute of limitations under NY law), Bragg has to upgrade the charges to a felony (which has a 5 year statute which has not expired) using the clause that makes falsified business record charges a felony if the falsification was done to further another felony. But its not clear what that other felony was (or if it was a federal offense, which opens a whole new can of worms) and Bragg hasn't disclosed what that predicate offense is, though in past cases under that statute the prosecutors usually didn't state the predicate offense in the indictment and still won convictions.
Apples to Oranges (no pun intended). Edwards had a child out of wedlock; Trump didn't. Edwards' wife was also battling cancer, while he was screwing around. Both are sleazy, but Edwards wins the slug award on this comparison.
Okay, now that's done. Will all politicians who are incumbents be scrutinized after the fact? How many others have done something similar and been paid out of the federal Treasury for years?
This is a much needed concise explanation; not to mention, impartial.
Interesting and informative. Thank you.
Thank you, WSJ. I always appreciate the unbiased reporting.
I wish we had a news station unbiased. Unfortunately we cannot get the truth on any station even FOX. Very sad
I would not say unbiased. They are owned by Murdoch. 😊
All I know is that Karen mcdougal is a 10/10
I think she’s metric. Maybe 10mm?
She is a beautiful woman. Which is odd why he hid it when many of his supporters probably would have voted for him regardless.
How differently would a regular citizen be handled if they were to engage in practices like these?

This is the best the Murdoch Street Journal can do? Didn’t Rupert just call off his engagement? That’s more interesting.
Just run for office and then complain any kind of accountability is politically motivated.
The fact that THIS is what got him indicted while he also instigated an insurrection is mind-blowing 🤯
what a shill lol
Trump should be indicted for living in your head and not paying rent
I really hope he gets indicted for both trying to interfere with election process in GA, and the stealing classified document case at the federal level.

Garland should have brought this case.
There is no enough evidence
Edwards was a Saint compared to Trump
Apples to Oranges (no pun intended).
Edwards had a child out of wedlock; Trump didn't.
Edwards' wife was also battling cancer, while he was screwing around.
Both are sleazy, but Edwards wins the slug award on this comparison.
You didnt get it. They were indicted because they paid then to influence their campaign not to lose votes not of having an affair.
Yeah, nothing will happen. Nothing ever will happened.
👍👍👍👍👍👍
As the new president's wife, SD will give DT discounts.

Where is the trial for Biden and the laptop, and why is 50% of the FBI not on trial for election interference? 😂
We completely concur with President Trump. This deceit directed at President Trump has been conceived upon vindictiveness and jealously.
Witch hunt. Like medieval time.
