On a recent Daily Show segment, John Stewart went full "Orange Man Bad" defending Letitia James' lawfare against Trump in New York where Trump was recently ordered to pay $454 million in damages for valuing his property higher than the tax assessor. Although Stewart and the rest of the TDS-afflicted left sees no problem with using the law in this way, it sets two exceedingly dangerous precedents. First, that anyone who owns a mortgage or a real estate investment in New York (for now, likely other blue utopias to follow) is subject to prosecution if they ever find themselves on the wrong side of a politically motivated DA. Second, if a party in power fails to get the courts to kick their opponent off the ballot outright, they can and will weaponize the law to throw as many roadblocks in his way as possible... ya know, for "democracy." We break down Stewart's segment, which is riddled with inconsistencies, hypocrisy, and economic illiteracy.
