And yet, he'll get what he wanted

Reason: "Alvin Bragg's Misbegotten 'Election Interference' Case Against Trump Ends With a Whimper - Aside from a felony record that may yet be erased on appeal, the president-elect will face no punishment for trying to conceal his hush payment to Stormy Daniels."

Bragg had two goals: 1) brand Trump as a felon and 2) derail his campaign.  Well, the latter didn't work and only the most TDS-affected Americans care about the former.  Still, Trump will be a "felon" until the inevitable and certain legal reversal of this sham trial.
