That’s a very long way of saying “Hush money to a porn star”.
Its not even as though Trump didn’t commit additional financial crimes while in office. He took money from the Saudis for state secrets. He traded insider information to his son-in-law for fundraising money. He staffed his departments with hedge fund insiders as a quid pro quo for personal financial favors. And that’s before we get to the illegal use of military force or the illegal direction of federal money for his pet border projects or the illegal arrest and unconstitutional prosecution of migrants and dissidents or the J6 shit.
91 fucking indictments. One trial. For the hooker hush money.
Say what you will about kickbacks to Stormy Daniels, but its the least lethal policy on the Trump docket. And that’s a real window into the soul of America. Rounding up and incarcerating people without trial is fine. Bombing foreigners is fine. Marching a high-on-their-own-supply fascist mob through Congress is fine. Just don’t get caught slipping your mistress a tenner to keep her mouth shut during an election season.

This trial isn’t about those things, and most of the US hates those events, so keep on preaching to the choir.
