Mitt Romney defends Trump against politically motivated indictment.

TL;DR Summary
Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's complex legal theory behind the 34-count indictment against former President Donald Trump has drawn criticism from some of his biggest critics, including Senator Mitt Romney and former FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe. They argue that the charges are politically motivated and set a dangerous precedent for criminalizing political opponents. Even Trump's former attorney general, William Barr, called the case "pathetically weak." The indictment has raised questions about the legal theory behind the case and the likelihood of it surviving defense challenges.
