You want to know why they broke laws and judge shopped to get Trump to NY on frivolous charges? I might just have an answer..
USA Today published a piece on the Russian "Merchant of Death" and what he warned Trump about.
If this is true, this would ignite a Civil War. Bragg's whole point of the Trial is exposing Trump to an Assassin. Draw Trump from the safety of his home and protections to expose him for an assassin's bullet. From the man who deals to assassins, he is most likely to be in the know about who has contracts within the US. So high is the threat that he offered asylum in Russia.
While he claims he would be safe there, I do not buy it for one minuet.
