Exactly right.
They chose this “crime” as the precedent for charging and convicting a former POTUS on an inflated 34 felony counts. They have to portray it as one of the most serious and heinous crimes ever committed. I just can’t see where the penalty then becomes nothing more than a slap on the wrist.
If Trump were allowed to continue to campaign unfettered, the purpose for this charade and sham of a trial would not be achieved.
I don’t think the objective for this law fare needs explaining…we all know why they did this.
They did this to delegitimize the Supreme Court. They know it will end up there and when the pre-determined verdict is justly and rightly corrected the beast power will attack the court as radical insurrectionists who have subverted the rule of law. They will remove the justices who ruled against them and replace them with compliant and corrupted judges. The whole goal is to destroy every element of our country that is decent, good and noble. But it's all academic anyways because they will not allow an election. They can't. The level of fraud and cheating they will need to "win" will be apparent to all. Or maybe they will allow it knowing then that the country will disintegrate into civil war and anarchy. Either way they achieve the goal of destroying the United States.
