The moral depravity of the Democrat attacks on Trump

 MISSOURI ATTORNEY GENERAL ANDREW BAILEY:

...

The people of the State of Missouri, whom I am tasked with protecting, watched in horror recently as the left’s direct assault on President Trump manifested itself in the form of a politically motivated, legally specious, and corrupt prosecution of the President, which resulted in an errant criminal conviction. We are a nation of laws that define who we are as a people, that establish systems of checks and balances to protect individuals from persecution, and that are supposed to be equally enforced and equally applied. Instead, the left has prioritized its hatred of President Trump above the rule of law. 

To put it plainly, the left hates President Trump more than they love this country. Government officials at the federal and state levels have censored President Trump, filed civil suits in order to sanction him, illegally removed him from the ballot, and perverted the law in order to prosecute him. This is a strategic attack against a former President of the United States, against a current candidate for President, and against the value we as a Nation place on our system of government, our legal system, and our very identity. The term lawfare, while apt, fails to adequately convey the moral depravity underpinning this strategic attack. I encourage this body to address each tactical front in the broader conflict provoked by lawfare. 

Today, my testimony is intended to illuminate the pernicious nature of the recent prosecution of President Trump in the State of New York.

 The Manhattan District Attorney’s Office’s recent prosecution of President Trump represents one of the most morally abhorrent volleys in the left’s on-going barrage of lawfare. This prosecution was politically motivated and replete with legal error.

...

Bailey is right.  I have been a lawyer for several decades and have never seen such a blatant abuse of power.  Democrats talk about "threats to democracy" but if they look at the mirror they would see the biggest threat to democracy in this country.
