NEW YORK POST EDITORIAL
Was there ever a more predictable outcome than that of Donald Trump’s civil trial?
Attorney General Letitia James came into office vowing to punish him and ignore all other crimes.
Judge Arthur Engoron found him guilty before anyone even set foot in a courtroom.
It was all over but the punishment: a $355 million fine and a three-year ban from running a business in New York.
Guess they were out of tar and feathers.
This was a politically motivated trial from the start, one that had the progressive James “protecting” big banks she would otherwise demean.
Congratulations, you’ve won a trial without victims and proved that Donald Trump likes to exaggerate.
See if that gets you elected governor.
Democrats have again shot themselves in the foot, proving to an increasing number of voters that the justice system is stacked against the ex-president.
This trial and the upcoming “hush-money” nothingness trivializes the more serious Jan. 6 case.
And how many will dismiss the classified documents trial because elderly Joe skated?
Don’t even get us started on that circus in Georgia.
Democratic elites will chuckle into their martinis this weekend at the verdict, but your victory is pyrrhic.
You’ve made Donald Trump a political martyr.
