I mean, I get it, but like… so the other side (Trump & co.) is able to make mistakes and be absurdly emotional over petty fucking bullshit, and it’s just sort of accepted and okay for them?
Yes.
Defendants of any sort should be afforded every latitude. Criminal convictions are supposed to be reserved only for those whose guilt is proven beyond the shadow of doubt. Anyone accused of a crime should be free to present any defense they want, while the state should be handcuffed to the constitution and hobbled by the law.
I’m convinced that Trump belongs in prison, but it’s up to the state to prove it.

Given the long record of witness tampering and intimidation and such that’s well-documented and has been for years, my feel is it’s ABOUT FUCKING TIME the state decided to take up the question.
I mean, yes- burden of proof and all, but when the defendant has been bragging he did all of these things in public and on media and in speeches to crowds, it was time to do all of this a long time ago
