This is ridiculous, heard it on the radio this morning in Australia. I’m no Trump fan. I’m not even in the same country so it means nothing to me either way. I’d probably be described as left leaning but even with my bias against Trump this latest indictment is a farce. So was the last one but this one takes it to a new level.

I had my doubts about the indictment even before I read it.

Then I read it.

I'm not a lawyer, nor do I play one on TV. But I do know my way around the US Code, and I don't see where Smith actually outlined any criminal conduct. Smith certainly did not establish that any of the conduct was in any way "fraudulent"--the crux of the indictment.

When I heard it, my first thought was how is any of that criminal even if true. Thanks for covering it in detail, confirms my initial impression. I’m also not a lawyer (but have been know to represent myself on occasion 😀) it just seems ridiculous to me. So based on my legal success it probably means he really is guilty.
