Part 3/6:
Critics of the trial, including legal experts and commentators, claim that the prosecution was motivated by politics rather than justice. They argue that the transformation of an expired misdemeanor into 34 felonies is indicative of a misuse of resources and an overreach of the judicial system, effectively turning it into a costly spectacle funded by taxpayers.
“The entire case is a charade,” Lewis remarked, emphasizing that the New York judiciary, particularly Judge Murchon, should be held accountable for what appears to be a politically motivated prosecution. The real stain, he argued, lies not on Trump but on the judicial system itself for allowing such a case to proceed.
