After seven years, I finally feel confident that we are witnessing the beginning of the end of Donald Trump. Absent severe mental illness, no prosecutor would even think about bringing this kind of indictment against a former president of the United States unless they were 300% certain that they would win in court. And this had to be bottom lined by the AG. No AG, no matter their political prejudices, would ever allow the Federal prosecution of a former president, unless they were convinced the rule of law and or national security required it. This indictment is simply damning. It alleges misconduct more serious by several orders of magnitude, than anything Hillary Clinton was accused of. Conduct that back in 2016, Trump wanted prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
To be clear, Donald Trump is an American citizen and entitled to his day in court. I don't have any competence as a matter of law to pronounce him guilty. But as a matter of private opinion, I think he is going down hard and will be very lucky if doesn't die in prison.
