Opinion | To Judge Chutkan, Trump Is a Defendant, Not a Presidential Candidate

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

41% : If anyone is politicizing this prosecution, it's Trump, who considers gaming the legal system as his birthright.
39% : To Judge Chutkan, Trump Is a Defendant, Not a Presidential Candidate"Chutzpah" is an indispensable Yiddish word.
37% : It was and is an absurd claim, devoid of any historical or constitutional support, and yet with the help of the Supreme Court's right-wing supermajority, half of which he put on the bench, Trump managed to drag out litigation over the matter until July, when he won a more sweeping victory than anyone, including his own lawyers, expected.
22% : Having refiled the four-count indictment against Trump to comply with that ruling, prosecutors were eager to move ahead and file briefs on the question of which of Trump's acts on and around Jan. 6 count as official.
19% : That was back in December 2023, when Trump stopped the case in its tracks by appealing on the ground of presidential immunity.
