Getting mentioned in a case has nothing to do with being listed in a law book as a similar case, it’s not that hard.

The other thing, I could be wrong, but I don’t think a current or former POTUS has ever been charged with crimes and taken to trial, so a similar case would not be in any law book.

Trump is on trial for mishandling classified documents, since the President has the ultimate authority to declassify any document he wants, there is no case anywhere similar to that.

“Getting mentioned in a case has nothing to do with being listed in a law book as a similar case, it’s not that hard.”

For crying out loud, I was not making an all-encompassing legal distinction. Someone made a point that bringing up the Witch’s case would move the jury. It would. Any sentient being would take notice. And, my point was that lawyers bring up previous cases to establish their narrative.

Representative Gaetz, a lawyer, said that the mentioning of the witch in the indictment would enable Trump’s lawyers to bring in all the pertinent facts of her event.

Go take it up with Gaetz.
