The GOP establishment fought tooth and nail against Trump in 2016. It was a hostile takeover, with a lot of help from the liberal MSM.
In the last 2 years, the Democrat establishment has cynically openly endorsed several pro Trump, extremist R candidates they view as weaker. IF you believe there was a political motivation to the Bragg indictments, the only sensical motivation would be to ensure Trump is the Republican candidate in 2024.
From where I am sitting it seems the Democrat establishment deserves a lot of the blame for helping pull the wheel of the Republican Party's veer into extremism.
