[THEASPENBEAT] Donald Trump...Oh, noze! Not him!...
has characterized his impending arrest this week as a political vendetta, and has urged his supporters to take to the streets in protest.
I agree with him that it’s a political vendetta, but disagree about taking to the streets.
It is indeed a nakedly political act by the Manhattan District Attorney. Numerous other prosecutors including sophisticated federal prosecutors have reviewed this same evidence, and have declined to pursue this case.
Rightly so. It’s a lousy case. The legal theory is a stretch. Moreover, the prosecution’s fact witnesses are not credible. One is a former porn star who has been caught numerous times lying and the other is Trump’s former lawyer who is willing to say anything he’s told to say in order to save his own hide.
Layer on top of that a prosecutor who is not exactly a top-notch trial lawyer and is known to get money from George Soros
...either Ernst Stavro Blofeld or Auric Goldfinger come true...
, and you have, as I said, a lousy case, even in New York where Trump has gone from loved to reviled. The prosecution will lose.
The result of that loss will be to boost Trump’s election chances because it will cast him as a wrongly persecuted martyr. Elon Musk — no dummy — declared that the case would guarantee Trump’s election. I wouldn’t go that far, but I do think it will help Trump.
Unless....
Unless there are
The Dems and their media allies will do the same with another protest, and they will do it even better this time because it will start to look like a pattern with Trump and his supporters.
You think the protests won’t turn
...Formerly one of the world's premier criminal investigation organizations, something for a nation to be proud of. Now it's a political arm of the Deep State oligarchy that is willing to trump up charges, suppress evidence, or take out insurance policies come election time...apparently did on Jan. 6, for the express purpose of inciting violence in otherwise peaceful crowds of Trump supporters. Trump, his supporters, and Republicans in general will get the blame.
It will be a case of Antifa
...the armed wing of the Democratic Party...
