“What he’s doing is, is he’s– We’re seeing in real-time a living martyr,” George Murdoch, a former Snoop Dog bodyguard who is now a political pundit by the name of Tyrus, prophetizes adding a little resurrection imagery, “because he’s dead in the courtroom, but his trial’s in the public and he’s winning in public.”
Murdoch went on to lament that “it’s designed for him to lose because no one is being charged with that,” which technically is true: no other person is being charged with using their private corporation’s money to influence a presidential election they’re running in by paying a porn star hush money to keep quiet about a sexual liaison the candidate had weeks after the birth of his youngest son. He got us: nobody else is getting charged for that. (There have been, however, more than a dozen convictions by Alvin Bragg’s office for the financial fraud crimes comparable to what Trump is charged with.)
