It is perhaps the most important indictment ever handed down to safeguard American democracy and the rule of law in any U.S. court against anyone.

    There have been a lot of people saying that prosecuting Trump for crimes only helps him and never hurts him. I’m not sure that’s true.

      Even if it does help him, which I am dubious of, the alternative is to say “Presidents and ex-presidents can get away with doing whatever they want.” Is that really the best thing for the country?

      I think giving up on prosecuting him because it may help him would indicate a far greater forfeiture of USA’s democracy.
