Elie Honig, CNN: “I would not have charged this case.”
Byron York: “For months, Democrats had hoped that the specter of Trump on trial would cut into the former president’s support. Now, we are in the fifth week of the trial, with wall-to-wall media coverage, and it appears to have not affected Trump’s support at all…As RealClearPolitics analyst Sean Trende wrote recently, ‘The political science literature is pretty consistent that this is the time when the electorate’s views about the election start to harden, particularly with respect to the economy.’”
Charlie Hurt: “The problem for Democrats is that extensive polling now shows that voters see through their scam and don’t like what is going on…Watching 100,000 enthusiastic people gather along the boardwalk of a New Jersey beach to support former President Donald Trump on Saturday evening gives you some idea of how terrified Democrats are of Mr. Trump.

“Another Deutsche Bank managing director at the time, Rosemary Vrablic, testified that the bank’s revenues from its relationship with Trump went up and up in the early 2010s. ‘Her division’s revenue from Trump business shot up from about $13,000 in 2011 to a projected $6 million in 2013, according to a bank document,’ the Associated Press reported. Deutsche Bank executives, per the Associated Press, referred to Trump as a ‘whale’ of a client, one they enthusiastically pursued. In 2014, also according to the Associated Press, Vrablic’s ‘direct boss went to lunch with Trump to thank him and ‘ask whether we can work on other opportunities with them,’ according to a document for that meeting.’ In short: Deutsche Bank did its own research for the loans. It made the loans. Trump paid the loans. Deutsche Bank made a big profit. Bank officials were happy and wanted to do more business with Trump.” https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/trump-mounts-strong-defense-in-trial-already-lost
