LETTER: The Trump show trial
June 16, 2024 - 9:00 pm
In his Sunday letter, Roy McGee says he won’t be voting for Donald Trump because he’s a “convicted felon.” Instead, he will vote a straight Democratic ticket. But it should be obvious even to the most oblivious person that the Trump trial was a Stalinist show trial in which Mr. Trump was disallowed from calling an expert witness from the Federal Election Commission. Mr. Trump’s witness, Robert Costello, was hushed constantly by the judge during his testimony.
Remember, Martin Luther King Jr., Mahatma Gandhi and Sir Thomas More — all innocent men — were also declared to be guilty.
