Will former President Donald Trump be indicted over alleged hush money payments to Stormy Daniels? Will he finally end up behind bars? We’re on the edges of our seats!

Over the weekend, we told you that Jonathan Turley doesn’t think the case against Trump is very strong. But let the record show that Judd Legum couldn’t disagree more. He’s got a whole thread about why Trump has got to go down for this one:

1. There is an emerging narrative from pundits across the political spectrum that Trump's hush money payments to Stormy Daniels weren't that important

And everyone should focus on other issues

This is wrong

Stormy Daniels matters

Follow along if interested

We won’t post the whole thread here, but we would like to highlight this particular tweet:

17. Trump schemed to conceal relevant information from the voting public in the days before the election, engaged in an elaborate coverup, and then lied about his involvement.

This deceit may have changed the course of history. https://t.co/8jWMEP59pr

Did you catch that? “Trump schemed to conceal relevant information from the voting public in the days before the election, engaged in an elaborate coverup, and then lied about his involvement.”

Sound familiar? It should. Because it’s exactly what the Biden campaign — with the full cooperation of the mainstream media and social media platforms — did with the Hunter Biden laptop story.
