New from me: Despite what they claim, Trump and his allies haven't been abused by the criminal justice system. They've actually been given extraordinarily preferential treatment.

That's 100% why those people you're talking about are now supporting Trump. If even a former President billionaire can get railroaded by lawfare and persecution, how unfair is the legal system to the poor? How about them apples?

Yes, but by claiming victimhood, the mainstream media starts scraping the bottom of the barrel to be sympathetic to them. Eventually, the only narrative that carries is the one that Trump doles out. This is the effect they seek, and are getting it.

It's infuriating to think you could probably go to any point in Trump's life since he attained legal adulthood and with just a little scrutiny catch him in some criminality.

Rump and friends are the abusers who have bent and mis-shaped our justice system in some areas permanently for the worse.

And if his followers were capable of learning and self-reflection they’d see a million examples of this and maybe think of the system differently.

My question, which I guess is sort of unanswerable, is was this the right thing to do? E.g., would it have been worse for Merchan to impose summary contempt on Trump for the assorted nonsense? I’m not even sure how to weigh it
