Trump’s apologists say it doesn’t matter if he’s guilty of insurrection. That’s not true

Proponents of law and order – who, for decades, railed against judicial decisions that freed from criminal sanction suspected and convicted criminals based on due process rights that are unconnected to guilt or innocence – now celebrate the possibility that a contemporary Benedict Arnold may hold the highest office of the land. They rejoice that the supreme court kept the former president on the ballot in all 50 states by relying on alleged constitutional rules that do not require Trump to defend himself against treason allegations.

  1. Of course it matters if he's guilty. If he is, then he shouldn't be running. Period. The issue is that the Left has decided Trump is guilty already, sans trial, and the Right has decided that any guilty verdict is a result of a corrupt government out to destroy him.
