For Democrats hoping to best former President Donald Trump by brute force rather than at the ballot box, perhaps the second indictment is the charm. Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s norm-shattering indictment of the former president turned out to be more of a bust than a silver bullet, with even lefty legal critics such as Ian Millhiser admitting that Bragg’s attempt to turn a hush money payout to a porn star into a felony charge of falsifying business records was “dubious” at best. Now, the Justice Department is taking a second bite at the Trump apple, indicting the GOP front-runner on seven counts related to alleged mishandling and possession of classified documents.
