But isn’t the crime DJT was charged with a federal crime....and the feds had already decided he committed no crime?

How can a state try a person for a “crime” under a non-state law?

No .and the feds had already decided he committed no crime?

Again, no. Sources: The Indictment and the Statement of Facts.

Trump's case will have to unfortunately go through the state courts first. It's the old, exhaustion, jurisdiction, ripeness stuff.

I think Bragg’s loony argument was that Trump might have intended to commit one of 3 crimes, one of which made it a circular argument, and the other two didn’t make much sense either. That allows the jury more fog to hide behind.
