As a Possible Indictment Looms, Trump's Team Plans to Attack

[Uncle Joe]

(snip)

With an indictment looming from the Manhattan district attorney, Alvin L. Bragg, Mr. Trump’s campaign is laying the groundwork for a broad attack on Mr. Bragg, a Democrat. According to two of Mr. Trump’s political allies, the campaign will aim to portray any charges as part of a coordinated offensive by the Democratic Party against Mr. Trump, who is trying to become only the second former president to win a new term after leaving office.

It is unclear what data points, if any, the Trump team plans to point to beyond Mr. Bragg’s party registration in order to make a case that the district attorney is part of a broader political conspiracy against the former president. It is also uncertain whether Mr. Trump will add lawyers to his legal defense team or bring on a communications adviser to play a more traditional role of responding to what will be a crush of media questions related to a potential indictment.

Already, Mr. Trump has spent the better part of two years attacking Mr. Bragg, who is Black, as “racist” and as continuing efforts to harm him, after two impeachment inquiries and a two-year special counsel investigation into whether he obstructed justice and whether his 2016 campaign conspired with Russians.

But since declaring his third presidential campaign in November, Mr. Trump has made attacking the investigators an increasingly intense focus.

I don't believe Bragg is intimidated by the orange bloated tick; and he knows it.

1. Well... If you have no defense...

The only option left is to try to put the prosecutor on trial. It never works, but it's his only option.

3. I'm watching Lawrence O'Donnell on this subject and he brought up

the complication of Jabba the Slut's secret service protection should he be arrested and/or convicted.

My own belief is if a former President is convicted of a felony, he/she should lose any secret service protection so they don't have to go to prison with him.

4. Attack? Yeah, right, bring it on. With his mouth always constantly running off, tRUMP has been

mouthing off at any and everyone on just about everything. I can't wait for the indictments to rain down upon them.

5. Prosecutors strategy: Bore TFG or troll him ?

my guess is bore for a couple weeks and at the end of the day, chat with the defense attorneys.

6. So impugn the integrity of the Prosecutor while not addressing the charges.

Good luck with that Defense!
