The Left's Lawfare Scorecard Against Trump Is Looking Pretty Bad at This Point

The wheels of justice grind slow, but they grind exceedingly fine.

If you're like me, you may have been losing faith in the U.S. justice system, as it has been politicized, weaponized, and turned against Donald Trump and his supporters. But as time has passed, the cavalcade of bogus cases against the past and future president has been disintegrating like comets passing into the Earth's atmosphere. Let's begin with the most recent meltdown.

Alvin Bragg's Hush Trump trial This case was already shaky and ripe for appeal. Not to bore you by rehashing what you already know, but among the major problems is the fact that no actual crime has been shown to have taken place and that Judge Juan Merchan allowed Stephanie Clifford to give copious prejudicial testimony that was unrelated to the weak charges. Then, on Monday, the prosecution's star witness, Michael Cohen, admitted that he stole $60,000 from the Trump organization. It's noteworthy that Cohen has not been charged or prosecuted for this theft by the Manhattan DA, but Bragg is prosecuting Trump for something much less criminal.

Now, it's possible that the jurors' hearts are so black with TDS that they will still come up with a conviction. But even if they do, Trump has already won this case in the court of public opinion. And any "conviction" Bragg and Merchan brew up won't last a hot minute on appeal.

Fani Willis's trumped-up RICO case For all the hope Trump haters had pinned on this case late last year, it imploded in January when news came to light that Fulton County DA Fani Willis had been sleeping with the help — namely, the special prosecutor she had hired, Nathan Wade. In the hearing that followed, both Willis and Wade appeared to perjure themselves...

If they can’t imprison him, they’ll kill him, because “Orange Man Bad.”

The process is the punishment.

Yes the wheels of justice go slow & grind fine but the idea of process as punishment is what lawfare is based on.

The left has decided that Trump is evil beyond measure, see “reasonable” leftist Bill Mahar’s comments about Trump last night on Gutfeld. If they honestly believe Trump is that evil, anything done to stop him is for the greater good, even if it means shredding the legal system.

There is no way they allow Trump to win this year.

Exactly so. They see Trump as “literally Hitler”. And they can’t sit back and allow Hitler to become president.

There is absolutely no way in the world that Trump will be found innocent or get a hung jury.

Any juror that votes innocent will have their life and their family‘s life totally destroyed.

The juror, the juror’s family and the juror’s kids will be forever doxxed, harassed or worse.

The democrats/far left will demand that.

This means, I fear, They will take him out like they did JFK. Shoot down his jet, use a big bomb at a Trump Rally, or a head shot by a team of assassins. All blamed on Iran and paid for by China. The Media will shed crocodile tears and use his demise as an excuse to start WW III. We will know the truth but, fat lot good that will do—as the Progs will be in power forever. Then we will see a real Hitler come to power—like that fellow in Canada.

Hunter's gun felony trial begins on June 3, and it will be refreshing to see headlines about a Biden in court instead of a DJT.

I wouldn’t bet on seeing too many headlines about Crackhead Biden, and if we do, they’re going to be defending him.

The powers that be on the left do not think Trump is evil. They know he is not although they have convinced a lot of their voters that he is.

Trump is a threat to them. A threat to their power and their money. He is a threat to their plans to turn our nation into a socialist communist “democracy” of mob rule (with them always being in charge of and controlling the mob).

The purpose of lawmakers is to exhaust the target both emotionally and financially. The dishonest and fraudulent accusations are the goal.

Taxpayers pay for the prosecution and there are no consequences to the operatives if they lose.

The target is usually so financially hurt and his reputation is so damaged that even if he wins, he loses.

The lawfare people are succeeding. They have hurt many good people and have suffered no consequences whatsoever.

“The powers that be on the left do not think Trump is evil. They know he is not although they have convinced a lot of their voters that he is.”

Totally agree. However, there are leftists, fairly high up in the hierarchy that believe Trump is pure evil. I would agree that the real power on the left knows Trump is an obstacle, not the evil he is portrayed to be. It’s a useful ploy to paint Trump as evil and have the stupid/media amplify that message.
