"It’s hard to believe prosecutors would bring this case against anyone else. But that doesn’t mean they’re wrong."
For all those whinging about how nobody other than Trump would have been charged with this crime, all I have to say in response is that, well, nobody other than Trump was, you know, campaigning for goddamn President of the United States of America at the same time he was committing this crime, which, as Seth Abramson pointed out, was committed explicitly for the purpose of helping to ensure that he won said campaign, which he "did" end up "winning." And we are all the worse off because of that. So, yeah, Trump and Trump's allies (and even Trump's detractors) who might be hemming and hawwing about how "unfair" this is toward Trump can eat all of the shit, as far as I'm concerned.
I still don't think anything will come of this, but fuck you sideways with a dried up corncob if you believe this is "unfair" to Trump. It was unfair to the country to have to put up with Trump-as-POTUS for four years, too. And it's unfair to posterity to have to put up with Trump's bullshit SCOTUS appointments for the next four-plus decades, too.
Starting to get actually angry over this shit, rather than merely cynical and jaded and pessimistic about it, so I think I'll let it go for now, at least for the rest of the day. Any further ranting can wait until tomorrow at the earliest.
