Attorney General Merrick Garland said in an interview with CNN that he believes there should be a “speedy trial” in the election subversion case against Donald Trump, while also pushing back on allegations that his department is targeting the former president for political reasons.
So he admits openly that this isn’t about justice, but about politics. As long as you have people in key areas of the government politically persecuting someone as high a former and likely future president, people will yearn for a populist president like Trump.

Garland’s not leading any of the prosecutions, nor did he originate any of the indictments. Heck, many of them aren’t even federal indictments.
And if people don’t want their favorite candidate indicted, they should start by picking one who’s not a crook.
