Here is an opinion piece from the WSJ today by Stephen Cohen* (paywall removed) in which the author admits the law was used creatively against Trump, but on second thought that might be a mistake.

For instance, this sentence: "But it is worth considering whether, in the quest to get Mr. Trump, many of our public officials may be pressing the law in ways that will outlive the cases against the former president."

In other words, "what if I piss off the wrong people and this law is used against me"

Gee, Mr. Cohen, a flaming Lib is worried that others are concerned about becoming a target of selective prosecution! Somehow I think this is becoming a jump the shark moment in NY. We shall see.
