NY vs. Trump: A trial in search of an imaginary crime
The Trump hush money trial is like 'Waiting for Godot' —a chaotic and nonsensical plot of absurdist fiction
Published May 1, 2024Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s Theater of the Absurd entered its third week, still without any evidence of crimes committed by the accused.
Playwright Samuel Beckett would be proud. The Trump hush money trial is like "Waiting for Godot" —a chaotic and nonsensical plot of absurdist fiction. The titular Godot, of course, never arrives. It is an apt metaphor for Bragg’s case against Donald Trump. Jurors may be waiting in vain for criminal offenses that don’t actually exist in the law.
But the District Attorney seems utterly unbothered that his charges are mutable, ill-defined, illusory, or just plain absent. All of which makes it a trial in search of an imaginary crime.

In Bragg’s Kabuki Theater everything is allowed, and every prosecutorial deception is a Trump chimera. He must be bad, don’t you know, because he fraternized with scandalous people.
