Former President Donald Trump showed up in Washington, DC, today to face yet another indictment. This is his third legal fight since he left office. Even though he has already been charged with a hush money deal with Stormy Daniels and a disagreement over classified documents at Mar-a-Lago, this new charge raises concerns about free speech. It is important to remember that it is not a crime to have an unpopular view or to get bad legal advice.

In reaction to this new indictment, Trump's legal team has boldly said that it is just the Biden administration trying to mess with the election. They say that the Department of Justice is using its power to stop any probes into Hunter Biden. This isn't too far-fetched, given that the Biden family has been in a lot of trouble lately.

The leftist media have, as usual, twisted this story in a condescending way, which was to be expected. They use words like "sad and solemn" to describe Trump's legal fights and paint a picture of a sad event. They might think they have a reason to party, but the fight isn't over yet. In fact, recent news about the Biden bribery plan, suspicious financial activities, and witness statements that back up each other suggest that Trump's chances of winning again, if he gets the nomination, might not be as slim as some people want to think.
In the end, the media's description of Trump's legal problems as a problem for the entire Republican party that can't be solved is just not true. With more and more proof against the Bidens and on-going legal battles, Trump's possible return to politics is still something to think about.
