Bret Stephens: Donald Trump treated the law 'with the contemptuous disdain of a mafia don — but with none of a don’s concern for covering his tracks.'
These same conservatives should try being consistent when it comes to the federal indictment of Donald Trump.
Jonathan Turley: “Some of the evidence is coming from his former counsel, and these are very damaging statements made against him,” the Fox News legal analyst said, referring to notes made by one of Trump’s lawyers, in which the former president plots to obstruct a government subpoena. “All the government has to do is stick the landing on one count, and he could have a terminal sentence.”
None of this will sway Trump’s base, because nothing will sway them. It doesn’t matter that they were the ones most outraged in 2016 by Hillary Clinton’s alleged mishandling of classified documents. Or the most disgusted by the conclusion by the then-FBI director, James Comey, that “no reasonable prosecutor” would bring charges against her. Or the most lustily cheering “Lock her up” at that summer’s Republican convention.
