Lawfare writes that the charges laid out in the indictment “will be the ones forever attached to Trump’s name.”
“They will appear in the first line of his obituary. They will be the facts school children learn about him as long as school children learn facts about American presidents. Among the many extraordinary features of his most extraordinary presidency, the facts alleged here—and which the government must now prove beyond a reasonable doubt to a unanimous jury—are singularly defining.”
“Trump will always be the president charged by the government he led with pursuing, as the indictment puts it, ‘unlawful means of discounting legitimate votes and subverting’ the results of the presidential election that he lost.”
