Opinion: Weaponizing government against Trump is predictably backfiring

All the contrived “lawfare” cases against Trump are falling apart.

The cases were assigned to inept, corrupt, blue-city prosecutors. And, on cue, they are botching their jobs in a clumsy sequence of events that say a lot more about the pursuers than about their target.

These prosecutors are failing because of the emergent truths found in the cases and because of the obvious fact, evident even to the most casual observer, that the cases are all politically motivated and home-cooked in 90% Democratic cities.

This week, the Supreme Court voted 9-0, something it almost never does, to toss out the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision that Trump could not be on the ballot there. Without him even being charged with insurrection, the liberal lower court used an antiquated 14th Amendment clause, which was used to bar Confederate officers from being a part of the Reconstruction political process in the 1860s. The high court decision that Trump is not Robert E. Lee might be the only case ruling that would hurt him with voters.

The Dems are going after Trump with a dormant Confederacy law, while the Jan. 6 protesters sit in solitary confinement over a Sarbanes-Oxley financial law on the books. Gubmint stretching much? Keep in mind that, as the Deep State grows, there are many laws on the books it can use to get any of us, at any time, for anything it decides. The DOJ is currently prosecuting me for violating the Sorghum Control and Rapscallion Wisenheimer Prevention Act of 1854.
