Ahh, the favorite apology of corrupt police. "Nevermind this conviction was bad... the convict surely did something else bad."
And it needn't even be used here. There are two cases (one currently dismissed pending appeal) which are properly and fairly brought against Trump. Jack Smith, unlike Bragg, has not acted unethically, or improperly. He is not stretching an ancient misdemeanor using a bizarre theory, and he is not prosecuting these cases for private political gain. He only stands to suffer massive annoyance and attacks for pushing these cases. But he is moving them forward in accordance with a reasonable reading of the law, within the proper statutes of limitations, and to discharge the duties of his office.
Smith is a bit of a zealot for me, but he is honorable in what he is doing. He is an example of proper prosecutorial discretion, juxtaposed against Bragg who is, and I use the term because it fits, a political whore - in not many regards all that different from Guiliani.
