What, exactly, is "clearly a crime"?
The accounting issue is at worst a misdemeanor, unless the DA can show that the payment to SD was a campaign finance violation.
But if it was "clearly" a campaign finance violation, why haven't federal prosecutors charged him with that?
Bragg is a motivated prosecutor trying to find a way to prosecute Trump for a charge he has no jurisdiction over, while the prosecutors who do have jurisdiction don't think it's worth prosecuting.
