"I wouldn't mind Trump having legal troubles, if he actually deserves them, but would be very disturbed to see America taking yet another step towards Banana Republic if it turned out they were all politically motivated.
"I have not followed these investigations much at all, but I am inclined to believe that if anything is of the undeserved (but politically motivated) variety, it's the one in New York. (On the other hand, the one in Georgia looks far worse for Trump, given that Trump's pressuring Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to 'find' votes over the phone in 2020 is public knowledge)....
"In any event, I would hope that the otherwise soft-on-crime prosecutor, Alvin Bragg, either has a real case or decides not to prosecute. Any case will help Trump play the victim -- as his incitement so far -- and reports to the effect that he wants to make the possible court appearance in New York into a 'spectacle' -- would seem to indicate.
"Any criminal trial of Donald Trump had better be solid, because he will try to use it to stir up trouble."~ Gus Van Horn, from his post 'What Does the Trump/Stormy Daniels Investigation Signify?'

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
