Donald Trump beat Kamala Harris and the system to win the election.
But he still has legal landmines on the way back to the Oval Office.
And Democrats were speechless after this advice about lawfare against Donald Trump from a Clinton advisor.
Former Clinton advisor tells Democrats to drop the lawfare
Democrats tried to stop former President Donald Trump from returning to the White House with an avalanche of lawfare.
Trump faced four sham criminal cases brought by Democrat prosecutors and frivolous civil lawsuits designed to kneecap his Presidential campaign.
But that didn’t stop him from defeating Vice President Kamala Harris and becoming the first Republican since 2004 to win the popular vote.
Harris Poll chairman Mark Penn – who served as a pollster to former President Bill Clinton – urged Democrats to drop the lawfare after Trump’s resounding victory in the election during an appearance on Fox News.
“I think it’s going to be incumbent on the Democratic Party to understand that the people have spoken and to dissemble and dismantle this lawfare that they, system that they have built up here, which is going to raise a whole series of questions that are going to have to be answered now,” Penn said. “But they cannot say that they are better than Donald Trump and recreate a system that does not recognize that he won and the people have spoken and he is going to be the 47th President.”
The fate of the lawfare against Donald Trump
Democrat prosecutors began indicting Trump in 2023 during the Republican Presidential Primary as President Joe Biden’s ace in the hole when he was in the race.
But the end result was that the lawfare backfired and it made Trump more popular because the public saw it as a partisan witch hunt.
Trump vowed to fire Special Counsel Jack Smith soon after he was inaugurated.
Biden’s Justice Department has reportedly seen the writing on the wall.
CBS News reported that Smith and the Justice Department are having discussions about potentially winding down the criminal cases over January 6 and classified documents.
The Justice Department has a longstanding policy against prosecuting a sitting President.
Democrat Judge Juan Merchan is scheduled to sentence Trump for the 34 made-up felony charges he was convicted of in a rigged Manhattan trial.
Judge Merchan is reportedly considering throwing out the charges after Trump won the election.
Which would be a clear sign that the case was politically motivated.
Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ case is hanging by a thread with the Georgia Court of Appeals weighing an appeal by Trump’s legal team to have her thrown off the case for a conflict of interest.
Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said in a statement that it was time for the lawfare to end.
“The American people have re-elected President Trump with an overwhelming mandate to Make America Great Again,” Cheung said. “It is now abundantly clear that Americans want an immediate end to the weaponization of our justice system, so we can, as President Trump said in his historic speech last night, unify our country and work together for the betterment of our nation.”
Lawfare was the Democrats’ gambit to win the election but might have helped put Trump in the White House.
