The Spin

This long-awaited case dismissal ends another shameful chapter of Democrat weaponization of the justice system against Trump for political gain. Fani Willis turned the prosecution into a corrupt circus with her misconduct and conflicts of interest. This politically motivated prosecution was always a failed attempt to influence elections through leftist lawfare.

This dismissal shouldn't be spun as vindication but as another example of Trump escaping accountability. Trump openly pressured officials to pursue his enemies, installed loyalists to bend the Justice Department to his will, and engaged in unprecedented self-dealing. Brushing this off as "lawfare" requires ignoring documented abuses that far exceed anything his opponents have done. The Georgia case is egregious in its scope.

Whether you'reAmericans are for or against Trump in this case, this news doesn't settle the matter for many Americans. For those seeking more answers surrounding Trump's alleged fake elector scheme, it appears this case has dragged on too long and won't be tried again, given that Trump is now president. The same is true for those who wanted answers surrounding alleged Democrat meddling in Georgia. The country is still very polarized, and the only cure is to thoroughly investigate alleged corruption on both sides.
