#1 An "honest mistake." No bad will involved.

No siree...

#2 The goals of the prosecution are division and provocation so there's no real need to get bogged down in legal detail.

#3 He's not in it to win anyway.
The whole point is the theater.

#4 
In say the next 18 months after this is over.

His likely already planned, future Book Deal, his MSM guest host Legal Analysis and various all expense paid vacation speaking fee's should be worth a few $$ Million a year.

#5 Doomed? This script was written years ago.

#6 I suspect the need to rush things to offer some cover for the Biden Corruption stories that were being reluctantly developed in the MSM was a factor. After all, the whole 2024 Bidet Campaign strategy, as laughably feeble as it is, is Russia-Russia-Russia V2.0, now Trump-Trial, Trump-Trial, Trump-Trial. Ed nails it, its the theater for the wine-box suburbs, Clueless-Karens and Moronic-Millenials!

#7 The suburban box-wine moms and TikTok obsessed teen voters fall headfirst for the "accept all this corruption or you'll end up with something much worse" bullgarb.

#8 I was the target of a civil suit that was clearly unjust but the attorney I hired shocked me by saying it all depends on the kind of judge that would be assigned to my case. When we signed in he asked do you see any attorneys with him in the clerks sign in process and we concluded no. He represented himself. My attorney savaged him with aggressive objections every time he opened his mouth. I won. The trial ended so fast in my favor, lasted only a few minutes, everyone was shocked. Trump's lawyers have GOT to rabid dogs.

#9 I have heard one analyst point out that Smith routinely supersedes indictments which runs up legal bills and denies a speedy trial for defendants. I think he will do this again here. If Trump is elected again, they will try to hamstring his presidency the way they did the first time. This time Trump will fire Smith and all the other clowns they put in his way. It will give Joe Scarborough the vapors. No one will care.

#10 It all depends on your legal help. My brother discovered that his 'dream home' in Memphis TN was actually in a bowl shaped depression. In heavy rains the runoff would go through his garage and out his back yard ...some dream home! His first attorney soaked him for thousands in legal fees and did bupkis. His second attorney told him the unpleasant truth that the developer was shielded by local law and if, IF he won a settlement the payout would be eaten up by legal costs -- assuming the developer didn't just declare bankruptcy and walk. My brother dropped the issue and used the money to pay for landscaping to solve the problem...

Moral of the story: get competent and honest legal help if you can find it -- the game is rigged and you don't want to be the sucker.

#11 Thank you, 'Burg for a delightful accolade after a very long, very trying week.

#12 None of Trump's attorneys have impressed me so far except McGahn.
