The US government passes about 40,000 new laws and regulations every day. As such, all of us have broken some at one time or another. There are just too many to keep track of.

This is the sort of crap that is happening, turning misdemeanors into felonies for Trump.
Bragg filed the indictment of Trump. Earlier this week,
this newsletter noted Bragg's case is remarkably weak and that there have been many analyses of its various flaws. But it's always useful to have a short version of the case's problems, so this is from the earlier newsletter: 1) The core crime alleged, falsifying business records, is a misdemeanor. 2) To turn the misdemeanor into a felony, Bragg had to claim that Trump falsified records in the act of committing another crime — but Bragg has not charged Trump with any other crime. 3) Bragg "stacked" the charges to come up with 34 felony counts against Trump based on what was essentially one payoff. 4) Bragg's effort to boost the case from misdemeanor to felony depends on a highly debatable reading of campaign finance law. 5) Bragg's star witness Michael Cohen is, in the New York Times's words, "a disbarred lawyer who served prison time after pleading guilty to violating campaign finance laws, evading taxes, making false statements to a bank, and lying to Congress.”
