In a shocking turn of events, even CNN’s legal analyst has come forward to support former President Donald Trump’s claims of political motivation behind his New York civil trial. The top analyst, Elie Honig, acknowledged that Trump has a valid point in suggesting that Attorney General Letitia James is targeting him for political reasons rather than sticking to the facts and the law.
Honig pointed out that James made her intentions abundantly clear during her 2018 campaign for attorney general, repeatedly stating that she would “get Donald Trump” if elected. Not only did she use this rallying cry to drum up support, but she also fundraised off it, leaving little doubt about her motivations. It’s undeniable that her relentless pursuit of Trump reeks of political vendetta, and Honig’s unexpected agreement with Trump’s assertions has caused quite the stir among CNN’s viewers.

Judge Arthur Engoron, known for not always seeing eye to eye with Trump, did at least grant the former president the opportunity to speak in his own defense during the trial. However, he warned Trump against turning it into a political rally. Trump initially stuck to discussing the case before unleashing his frustrations with AG James and the court.
He adamantly declared that the proceedings were unconstitutional and labeled them as election interference at the highest level. Trump even went as far as accusing the White House and President Joe Biden of being involved in the alleged witch hunt against him. Despite the judge’s restrictions, Trump continued to voice his discontent with the trial, claiming that he was being denied his rights and that legal scholars were expressing unprecedented astonishment at the situation.
It’s clear from these events that Trump’s concerns about political interference in his trial are not unfounded. The biased pursuit of Trump by AG James has become a matter of public discourse, and even an unlikely supporter from CNN has acknowledged the deeply rooted political motivations behind the case. The blatant targeting of Trump based on a pre-election promise is a testament to the ongoing political vendetta against the former president, and it’s high time for justice to prevail over partisan agendas.
