The Trump indictment is a political exercise
The Spectator ^ | 31 Mar 2023 | Roger Kimball

Posted on 03/31/2023 4:22:36 PM PDT by Rummyfan

The first thing to understand about the indictment of Donald Trump by the Manhattan Grand Jury convened by the George Soros-funded District Attorney Alvin Bragg is that it is only incidentally a legal proceeding. Don’t be distracted by the avalanche of analyses that are poised to descend on the public. All the legal mumbo-jumbo is beside the point.

At its core, the indictment of Donald Trump is a political exercise, not a legal proceeding. That is to say, it involves the deployment of state power against an individual, not the impartial application of the law. Indeed, what...

Not political exercise -

It is a Stalinist political persecution by a committed cabal of extremist progressive Marxists.

I think you are missing something important.

Mitch McConnell, Paul Ryan, Mitt Romney et al are not “extremist progressive Marxists” - but they, and many like them, are essential members of #theresistance.

The Deep State had deep roots in US politics, and it has broad, bipartisan support.

It’s not really a Marxist phenomenon. It’s a reactionary force, wanting to wake up every day like it was May 8, 1945 all over again.

When Bragg ran for DA, he promised to indict Donald Trump. Based on what?

The Deep State is very cunning, and its reach is wide. They took out two major conservative voices at the same time in Trump’s 2020 election: Ann Coulter & Drudge.

No small thing...especially canceling the Drudge Report, which was a conservative mainstay.

Oh, good, this is just a political exercise.

I was getting worried there for a second.

I’m sure Trump is relieved.

Good for you. I quit wasting time on these turncoats years ago, and people wonder why the election was so humdrum last year. Why vote for the other half of the uniparty?

But will a judge go along with being a part of a kangaroo court? As the prosecutor campaigned specifically on hunting Trump, shouldn’t that disqualify him. What court, if any, can step in and stop this political circus?

Ukraine was not only a bribe fest, it was used to recruit powerful politicians further into the corruptocracy, when they are bought out further than they can get out.

LOL
But no laughing matter for the poor food server who got between Bragg and the buffet table. In the hospital now.

The biggest reason they hate and must stop Trump from becoming President again is because he challenged and blocked the globalist military-industrial complex state department. the global stage is where the real power is and that is the hill they will die on. The social Marxist stuff is secondary.

Ann’s been off her rocker since at least 2012, and hasn’t had any real relevance since then. She did that herself, and has no one to blame. Deep state had nothing to do with that. Drudge? I can’t say.
