Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel is the Barney Fife of elected lawyers, but she lacks Fife’s decency and charm. She was laughed out of court last week — literally — by a Gov. Gretchen Whitmer-appointed judge when the charges against 15 2020 Donald Trump electors were dismissed.
Nessel charged the group with forgery, fraud, and six other felonies each. The electors, several in their 70s and 80s, faced years in prison. Most of the longtime Republican activists would have likely died there, probably the way Nessel intended it.
