Pollak: Breitbart News Vindicated; Under Georgia Judge's Logic, Trump's New York Conviction Should Be Tossed

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

42% : (Trump was charged with counts 15 and 27, but not 14, so while three counts were tossed, only two pertained to him.)
26% : At the time that Trump and 18 co-defendants were indicted, Breitbart News flagged the problem that Georgia was trying to enforce federal laws in a state court, apparently in conflict with the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution.
25% : It also attempts to implicate Trump and his campaign in violations of federal laws, suggesting that the local, county prosecutor thinks she can enforce federal law.
13% : Judge Juan Merchan allowed District Attorney Alvin Bragg to exceed the statute of limitations by claiming that Trump had made false filings to conceal another crime, and allowed the jury to consider federal campaign finance laws as among the possible statutes that Trump had violated -- even though the Federal Elections Commission (FEC) never took any enforcement action against Trump or even opined that he had broken the rules.
