Alvin Bragg Must Decide If He Wants Prison for Trump

“Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg won the biggest bet of his career last week when a jury convicted Donald Trump. But his battle with the former—and possibly next—president could continue for years,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“Bragg, a Democrat, must in the coming weeks decide whether to be the first prosecutor to seek to imprison a former president—or simply leave the matter to the judge. In the long term, his office will likely grapple with a potentially yearslong appeals process, which could be particularly messy if Trump, the presumptive Republican nominee, wins a second term.”
