Conversely, failure to disqualify or jail Trump means they have simply super-charged his already zealous base and quite possibly attracted some fence-sitters who might then perceive the criminal charges as a manipulative attempt to secure the presidency in court.
Many smarter observers than me no doubt see this differently, but i think these prosecutions will backfire.

i agree 100%. the best thing the Democrats could have done was keep their mouths shut and stop all this nonsense. i have never in my life heard of such a bazaar case as the one going on in New York right now that is going to force Trump out of New York and penalize him science fiction numbers.
the federal case looks like a ticky tak foul. however, the one in Georgia seems to have plenty of merit to it.
