Neither New Yorkers nor the rest of the nation should have to deal with the consequences of a wannabe authoritarian unencumbered by laws the rest of us must follow.
No matter what Trump’s groveling supporters say, a grand jury’s decision to bring charges does not amount to a grave injustice. In fact, this is the process of criminal justice working as intended. If Trump were subjected to, police officers would bump his head against the squad car before hauling him to court.
There are some who tell us a Trump indictment is a somber moment, unworthy of celebration. I do not think so. Can you hear my Champagne bottles popping? I want any serial abuser of the law held to account. And I want the legal system, which often protects such people so long as they’re rich and powerful, to do it.
In Trump’s 1989 ad, he claimed that criminals “must be told that their CIVIL LIBERTIES END WHEN AN ATTACK ON OUR SAFETY BEGINS!” Well, I stand with the millions of others who won’t feel safe if our criminal justice system involves carve-outs for former presidents to circumvent the law.
