Trump's Indictment of a Former President
Trump's army of apologists and sycophants have wasted no time in politicizing the charges against the former president. The strategy here is very easy to see. First, play down the nature of the crime itself. Trump took a few keepsakes with him after his presidency. So what? Didn't Biden and Obama do the very same thing? You're just picking on Trump again. Next, Trump and his allies will try and shift the conversation away from the charges towards government overreach. If the president in power can just jail his political opponents, which is what Joe Biden is trying to do, then we don't have a republic anymore.
