If a prosecutor had been on the fence over indicting Trump ...

... his public bravado I'm thinking will push said prosecutor TOWARDS indictment.

Don't wave your private parts at the justice system.

Prosecutors should rely on the evidence and not being pissed or intimidated.

But in this case, I doubt it has much of an effect on the charging decision.

Neither do the house antics.

Bragg never wanted this case. He may still decline to ask for indictment.

A grand jury hasn't even issued a finding yet. They aren't close to a prosecutor's indicting. As usually, the rumors are nothing but bullshit.
And to think people bought into it because Trump said so--Trump, a pathological liar.
