Last Friday night, the same news network engaged in a de facto blackout on Trump broke some ominous news: Sometime this week, Trump will be arrested and indicted forsomething.
The indictment of Donald Trump has been inevitable since the moment Trump won the 2016 election, because all along, winning that election with the transformative America First message campaigned on has always been the "Real" crime of Donald Trump.
Now, Bragg's pending Trump indictment shows another dramatic advantage of investing in local DA races: Creating a reservoir of deeply ideological political actors who can do things like spend years concocting politically-motivated charges against one's enemies.
In the end, Bragg's indictment of Donald Trump says a lot more about those investigating Trump, and what motivates them, than it does about the 45th president.
In a sense, imprisoning Trump is just a step up from the attempt to deplatform Trump two years ago.
Do shots of himself in handcuffs, facing unjust charges, help or hurt Trump's chances of winning the GOP nomination? Do they help or hurt his odds of winning the presidency itself? Elon Musk himself suggested that, if Trump is arrested on flimsy charges, it will cause him to be elected in a "Landslide."
The system harbors unique hatred for Trump for the same reason that he inspires unique loyalty in patriots- Trump is the real deal and challenged the system in a way that our country hadn't seen for years.
