The latest news surrounding Special Counsel Jack Smith’s motion to dismiss federal charges against President-elect Donald Trump brings a wave of relief and a hearty dose of schadenfreude from conservative circles. The legal maneuvers, which were meant to derail Trump’s chances of reclaiming the presidency, have ultimately collapsed under their own weight. Smith contended that pursuing criminal charges against a sitting president runs counter to Justice Department policy, and Judge Tanya Chutkan soon followed suit, granting the dismissal in what can only be described as a hilarious anticlimax for Trump’s critics.
Democrats, predictably, are now in a state of turmoil. The cacophony of their wails can be heard from coast to coast, revealing their deep-seated panic that their attempts to thwart Trump through the judicial system have backfired spectacularly. The reaction from the left illustrates their desperation; rather than let actual voters decide Trump’s fate in 2024, they sought to manipulate the legal system in hopes of achieving a preemptive strike against him. The irony is palpable: they wanted to ensure a swift end to Trump’s political aspirations, and instead, they’ve handed him a major victory.
Several Democrats voiced their discontent, including one particularly vocal representative from California who lamented the Justice Department’s failure to take down Trump. His remarks echoed around social media platforms, painting a vivid picture of a party frustrated by its own inability to achieve what it saw as justice. Former federal prosecutor comments added to this chorus of grievance, as he bemoaned the supposed delay in prosecuting Trump while criticizing the Supreme Court’s stance on presidential immunity. Such comments only bolster the perspective that the left is more interested in winning by any means necessary than in upholding true justice.

While the left might blame the judicial process for their setbacks, many conservatives view Smith’s appointment as a needless escalation that ultimately did more harm than good to their cause. The quick action taken in other cases, like the classified documents investigation, suggests that when it comes to Trump, the system appears unwilling to operate with the same level of urgency. The delay in prosecuting him has come at a cost, and it seems the left has misjudged the repercussions of their political maneuvering. Trump has not only remained in the race but has, in essence, turned the legal battles into stepping stones rather than stumbling blocks.
Sure, Democrats will clutch their pearls and continue to spin narratives about safeguarding democracy against a “fascist,” but as the dust settles, their cries become fainter. The fact remains that rather than making a compelling case to the American public, the left resorted to weaponizing government powers against a political opponent—an indication of their own fear of a Trump re-election. As it turns out, their dread was not unfounded; Trump appears more formidable than ever, and the reality of their failed strategies begins to set in. The farce of legal persecution was never about the law, and as that truth becomes clearer, the left’s credibility takes yet another hit.
