Republicans are counting on people not to read the Trump indictment

Donald Trump’s critics want people to read the special counsel’s indictment. Trump’s supporters do not. This is part of a striking larger pattern.

It's a rule-of-law norm!

I read the indictment right away—why get the info second hand? It was surprisingly easy reading despite the number of pages.
The prosecutors avoided using legalese & when they did use legal terms, they explained it in plain English and/or used examples.
If people want to opine about the case, they should at least read the indictment. trump’s conduct was deliberate and treacherous—a danger to national security.

I read it as soon as I could—why get the info second hand? It was surprisingly easy reading and went very fast. The prosecutors avoided using legalese & when they had to use legal terms, they explained it in plain English and/or used examples.
If you want to opine about the case, read the indictment!
