Trump reportedly wants to be a martyr - cuffed, perp walked, maybe even shot
-
I'm 50-50 on whether Bragg & other abusive, power-addicted libs are SO DUMB that they will oblige him.
Trump be like Obi Wan.... if u strike him down, he will become more powerful than u can possibly imagine.

Indeed, only 14% of Dems are smart enough to see that a Trump indictment helps him.
Hey libs: It would make everything he ever said about USA as Banana Republic, with corrupt 2-tier justice & rigged elections, seem true.
Whether or not it's true.

@blablarg18 The majority of Americans think the investigations into him are fair, and if he’s indicted based on those investigations?
The common denominator in all of this is TRUMP. I don’t like the idea of the US having a former-President be indicted either, but if that is where the investigations lead then so be it.

@djhf2021-0 I'm afraid not. Already, majority of Americans think Bragg indicting Trump would be an "outrageous abuse of power".

Also, I daresay you're missing the narrative logic - where public opinion would kinda-hafta go AFTER indictment.
For starters, an indicted Trump wins the GOP nomination almost automatically.
Any trial (the consequence of indicting) would bring out the full evidence in a 2-sided format.
Many normies (people who believe the ultra-one-sided media) would then grapple with the proverbial "other side of the story", for the first time, moving a good chunk of them toward Trump.
We've seen it before. Every time Trump gets into a legit 2-sided format, he can finally expose normies to his side & he comes out better for it. EVERY time. He thrives on it.
Which is why Dems prefer stacked committees a.k.a. kangaroo courts, de-platforming, cancel culture, censorship etc. Trump's key move is always to escape them, get his story to people direct.
But anyway, next Trump would sell himself to Independents as a persecuted underdog.
If that works.... GOP + Independents = a majority, ie., if (or when) Trump gets both of those on his side, Dem opinions cease to matter.
And that's with 46% of Dems(!) already agreeing, along with clear majorities of Independents & GOP making up a majority overall, that Bragg indicting Trump would be an "outrageous abuse of power".

Do you believe in equal justice?
If so, then Biden needs to be investigated and prosecuted too. Bust as we constantly see, justice doesn't apply to the left.
The DOJ routinely drops charges against leftists who commit crimes.
The Obama DOJ dropped charges against the New Black Panther guy who was threatening white voters outside a Philidelphia polling station.
The Biden DOJ dropped charges against virtually all the "summer of love" rioters and looters. Those that did get prosecuted got extremely light sentences.
The DOJ didn't go after the May 2020 rioters that attacked the White House, like they did the 6 Jan people.
Hunter Biden is a proven felon, by lying on his gun form. Obviously, he will never, ever be prosecuted for that because he's the son of a Democrat.
Eric Holder was never prosecuted for refusing to obey a Congressional subpoena.
The laundry list of extreme bias in the federal legal system is blatant, only a liberal can't see it.

@raphjd And the Kavanaugh rioters who stormed the Capitol - including grounds that the Feds marked as "off limits" only after J6, so as to retroactively criminalize the J6 protestors - alone.
But this is interesting - Andrew Cuomo is part of the 14%
"I think it's all politics and that's what I think the people of this country are saying."
How time flies!
It was 3 years ago - but seems like only yesterday - that Cuomo was sending NY covid patients into NY nursing homes, maximizing NY's uniquely high death toll from covid.
