Because these shills see it as their last, best hope of stopping him from running. They simply will not admit he can't be stopped over any legal issues they bring up. They seem to think his support can be lessened due to some of his employees turning State's evidence against him. The idiots aren't smart enough to know that most of his supporters fully understand that put in a similar box, anyone who isn't a billionaire is FORCED to face prison or to say exactly what the corrupt prosecutors tell them to say.
It's one of the most egregious problems within our justice system today. NO citizen can stand up under an endless assault from a government that has no limit on its spending and who's willing to use it to crush anyone they want to crush.
There should be a law that any citizen who is unable to pay for their counsel when being prosecuted by DoJ, should have those expenses met for as long as it takes to get an equitable trial finished.
