The four criminal trials currently scheduled for former President Donald Trump are amongst the most significant and controversial trials in American history. It is imperative that they also be among the fairest trials in our history. Regardless of the results—acquittal, conviction, hung jury—the trials must be perceived as having been fair. The defendant must receive the benefit of all of his constitutional and statutory rights. Not only is Donald Trump on trial in these cases, but the American system of justice is on trial, not only in America but around the world.
The defendant is not only a former president; he is also the leading candidate to run against the incumbent president. Never before in our history has a leading presidential candidate been indicted, especially in the run-up to the election. If the trials themselves are unfair or even reasonably perceived to be unfair, our nation will be further divided and our standing in the world of democracies will be further damaged.
There is great desire among those who strongly oppose what Trump did in the past and what they believe he is likely to do in the future to "get" him. Many believe that the noble end of preventing Trump from being our next president justifies ignoble means, including stretching the Constitution and the law so as to assure his conviction. They believe that the reelection of President Trump would be more dangerous than compromising his constitutional rights.

Still can’t get over his repeatedly saying that because of the banana republic corruption and lawfare he is being denied the right to vote for a third time against Trump.
He was silent on the J6 gulag… still is. So why does he think his due process matters more than theirs.
He gave them this power with DACA amnesty, mail in ballots and the other CARES Act pieces.

“Unfortunately, Dersh is useless.”
As useless an your opinon?
Wrong. They're calling for him to be charged as well. Being a quisling only puts you a little farther back in the queue, and only for a short while. And Linda's time to face the DOJ's persecution by lawfare has come.
I doubt it. That civil war should be raging by now. Nothing seems to be too horrible for us to accept.
I mean we have innocent people being sentenced to years in prison for thought crimes. Some have even committed suicide.
Nothing will happen if they put Trump behind bars. We will pretend we can have a fair election, turn on the NFL, and march down the path to hell.

Actually, to achieve their aim of intimidating the sheeple, these trials must be seen by everyone to be both unfair and unjust.
We're already in a civil war. The problem is, only one side is showing up.
The other side is too addicted to the leftist propaganda posing as entertainment to care.
Voted for Biden did you? Are you going to again?
It’s more of an observation.
You do know that was a joke, right?
“t is imperative that they also be among the fairest trials in our history.”
Persecutions are never fair. They should never exist. Just the filing of them deprives a person of due process.
Nope. Only if they are America first and don't support the deep state. That's not very many.
