Voters think Biden trying to criminalize Trump
A clear majority of voters believe President Joe Biden hopes to put his likely 2024 Republican opponent in prison before the election should former President Donald Trump be convicted in any of his criminal cases.
Trump is facing two criminal prosecutions from special counsel Jack Smith as well as one each from Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis and Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Trump, for his part, contends that he is innocent of all wrongdoing and that the cases are part of a broader political witch hunt designed to derail his presidential campaign.
A recent McLaughlin and Associates poll viewed by the Washington Examiner seems to suggest that many voters agree with Trump on the matter.
"President Trump has been indicted on a total of 91 counts by supporters of Joe Biden and his Justice Department," the poll stated. "If convicted of these charges, do you think that Joe Biden wants to stop President Trump from winning the election by putting him in jail?"
In total, 56% of voters replied "yes," while only 30% said "no" and 14 were unsure or refused the question.
Breaking that figure down by party affiliation, 86% of Republicans said Biden hoped to jail Trump compared to 8% who disagreed. For independents, the figures were 50% to 33%. A further 32% of Democrats said Biden hoped to jail Trump to stop an election win while 48% disagreed.

I think Biden and other Democrats apparently believe that their best chance of defeating Trump is to bring criminal charges against him. They should be ashamed of themselves.
