Trump’s 2020 Interference: Unpunished and Undermining Justice
In a controversial decision, a Georgia prosecutor dropped criminal charges against Donald Trump regarding his efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. This move, seen as detrimental to the rule of law, came after the case against Trump faced setbacks due to alleged ethical violations involving the original prosecutor. The dismissal of the case, supported by a 22-page filing, effectively dismissed a wealth of evidence that could have painted a dark picture of Trump’s egregious conduct, and it offered alternative interpretations of Trump’s actions. Rather than allowing a jury to decide on the interpretations, the prosecutor whitewashed history, denying a jury of its right to decide on Trump’s actions in 2020.
