The Case For Prison For Trump

[Bradley K. Sherman]

| Having witnessed every day of Donald Trump's criminal trial

| intended to commit, aid or conceal a second crime by making
| or causing false entries.

No, not profoundly. Not even serious. In and of itself, it's a misdemeanor that millions
of others in business are guilty of every day.

Which is different. The problem for the public is that *that* crime has not been
specified, charged or tried. The jury was convinced but the public is still in doubt.
