You do understand that dropping the cases had nothing at all to do with the strength of the cases or whether or not the department of justice believed juries would convict Trumpedo.
Shrug. Jack Smith dropped the case. Case closed, regardless what one believed or not. No, LM. You are lying by omission.
"Citing the Justice Department’s “careful consideration” of the unprecedented situation, Smith told federal courts in Florida and Washington, D.C., that it would be unconstitutional for his office to continue prosecuting the incoming president, who is set to take the oath of office on Jan. 20.
“(T)he Department and the country have never faced the circumstance here, where a federal indictment against a private citizen has been returned by a grand jury and a criminal prosecution is already underway when the defendant is elected President,” Smith wrote in a filing in federal court in D.C.
A federal grand jury handed up an indictment of Trump in August 2023 and a superseding indictment this past August.
Despite the prohibition on continuing the case against Trump, Smith wrote that the government “stands fully behind” the foundation of it."
