There'd be no better Christmas present (even if after Christmas) than to see the Malignant Loser indicted for his crimes, whether in the stolen classified documents case or the January 6 sedition and insurrection case. The Georgia election interference case is also closing in on the Malignant Loser. Dozens of subpoenas have been issued by Special Counsel Jack Smith in these cases, suggesting that evidence collection is widening. Former prosecutors and legal analysts are in consensus, agreeing that Smith is moving aggressively toward indicting the Malignant Loser and his co-conspirators:
"They were moving at full speed even before Jack Smith came on board....We've seen a lot of evidence publicly and the special counsel and his team are busy collecting more. I think he will be indicted." -- former Federal prosecutor Jennifer Rogers on CNN.
"There is a serious path for DOJ to charge in this case. And based on the publicly available evidence, I think that's abundantly clear. Might DOJ internally have information that we are not aware of that could make it difficult or impossible to charge the former president? That's always something that you have to think about in an investigation....you've got two very serious people with prosecutorial chops, who left their jobs to join the special counsel team. People don't do that unless there is, as he says, a serious path to prosecution. And I think we will see this come to a head earlier in the new year." -- former U.S. Attorney Joyce Vance on MSNBC.
"What's significant about that relationship is that we all heard the conversation Donald Trump and Brad Raffensperger had. It's very rare that a piece of evidence plays out on national news, and it did. So, to my understanding or guess is that they are, number one, asking Brad Raffensperger to fill in the details of that conversation. Number two, it suggests he is building a case for either, not just the former president, but people around him who might have been privy to some of those acts in Georgia." -- former DOJ official and legal analyst Elliot Williams on CNN, referring to the Georgia election interference case.
As prosecutors and legal experts have pointed out separately, speed is not the goal, it's making an airtight case that will secure a conviction. Making your case bulletproof against the most dangerous, corrupt demagogue in American history is Smith's task, and he seems well equipped for that.
