CNN's Top Legal Analyst Explains Why the Georgia Case Got Tossed. Libs Won't Like It.

Matt Vespa, TownHall:

CNN’s Elie Honig, a former assistant US attorney and the network’s top legal analyst, has been fair in his analysis of the case. He’s not a MAGA guy, but he also knows procedure and how the Justice Department operates. He’s been quite clear that this case, and most of the legal actions against the president, were a bit shoddy.  

(Honig): “This motion is not a partisan screed. You would not read this and say this guy loves Trump; this guy hates Trump. It's a careful dissection of evidence, not through the lens of whether Trump's conduct was bad, but whether there was a supportable criminal case. This prosecutor leans towards no.

Vespa:

In the filing to dismiss, Honig noted that the prosecutor’s office added that the venue and charges were inappropriate at the state level, and it was more of a pile-on since Trump was facing similar charges at the federal level in DC. Those, too, were also scrapped. You can’t have a local county DA indicting and putting a sitting president on trial. It’s not going to happen. What about after Trump leaves office? Still a no-go due to statute of limitations.

It’s over, libs.
