How Alvin Bragg made (preposterous) history with Donald Trump's case

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% : In his statement of facts, Bragg says Trump orchestrated a scheme to influence the 2016 election "from August 2015 to December 2017.
37% : The trial is all about Trump, but the most important piece of the puzzle is Bragg, since no one else with an ounce of judgment would have brought this case.
34% : Never mind that the hush payment does not constitute any of the things that are traditionally defined as campaign expenses -- advertising and the like.Never mind that if Trump had paid Stormy Daniels from his campaign coffers, his enemies would be contending that he had misallocated campaign funds for personal purposes.
27% : The underlying offense occurred later, when Trump reimbursed Cohen in 2017 and misleadingly booked the payment not as the reimbursement of a debt but as an ongoing legal expense.
26% : As we know, it involves a $130,000 payment from former Trump fixer Michael Cohen to Stormy Daniels right before the 2016 election to keep her quiet about an alleged affair she had with Trump a decade earlier.
25% : It's likely that none of this is going to matter because the New York legal system is so stacked against Trump.
