Bogged down by specious legal cases and elevated toward the Republican presidential nomination

because of them, Donald Trump faces almost insurmountable obstacles to the White House.

All righty.

So today, the former president of the United States is expected to appear in person for his arraignment in federal court in Washington, D.C.

So we're going to get another O.J. Simpson Day where the president is trailed by helicopters as he leaves Marilago and then he gets on a plane and then he goes to Washington, D.C., and then he goes into a courthouse, and then he exits a courthouse. And we're going to get all the usual hullabaloo about how this is historic and it's the biggest thing that's happened in the United States since ever and And it's like an amazing, amazing day for the left. They're all going to be celebrating.

They're all going to be woo-hooing. It's going to be so exciting. We've done this several times at this point because Trump, of course, had to go to New York for arraignment. And then he had to be in Florida in Miami for an arraignment.

Now, it's been Washington, D.C.

for an arraignment.

So it's the arraignment world tour here

with the Trump campaign.

And this is not Donald Trump's fault

because this indictment is garbage.

The indictment, as I discussed yesterday, is charging crimes that are not actual crimes. They are suggesting that Donald Trump, for example, committed some sort of fraud against the government of the United States, which is a lie. That is not in fact how that law works. What they wanted to charge him with was

incitement. What they really wanted to charge him with was he is the one who created the riot on January 6th. But the problem is it doesn't fulfill the actual elements of incitement because incitement under American law requires that you actually tell people to go do the thing. It is not enough to say, well, you know, I really, really don't like that guy. And then somebody goes and they burn down the guy's house. That's not enough.

You have to say, I want you to go to that guy's house and burn down his house and here's his address. And the latter is incitement. Trump didn't do that. He said on January 6th, go peacefully protest, patriotically protest at the Capitol building. And then he didn't do enough to get people out. But again, that's not the same thing as incitement.
