Yeah, well.
But the reality is that there’s no investigation against Trump that won’t seem politically motivated to his supporters. Federal prosecutors aren’t elected, and a special prosecutor took over the federal investigations involving Trump as soon as Trump announced he was running for president again, but if Trump ends up being charged in either of those investigations, he’ll say it’s Biden’s doing.
And there are issues to be brought out where Trump’s supporters would have less of a case. This one makes me feel dead and empty. Like, I watched Stormy Daniels become a personality and make public appearances on late night tv shows with Trump caricature characters. This has been a boon to her career, and good for her for packaging the Trump years into a good paycheck and three, but she joins a long list of celebrities I have no interest in. In terms of the federal v state jurisdiction, it is that odd case that the way toward election in state and local districts to throw out flyers asserting “I am going to take on Trump” — all politics are national — and now it becomes a sticky wicket of “someone has to do this”. But why this one and not something that actually matters? Because, I guess, it was what was on a New York docket.
I have no clue if Desantis’s reaction is politically advantageous, but it is about right any way.
After that we get a sense of dejavu. Like, the Republicans are saying identical words as Democrats did in 1998. Both are sort of right and sort of wrong on their points.
