It seems like every single day, Democrats dream up some new excuse to target Trump. Everything is a scandal that they then try to dial up to 11 with the help of the liberal media. It’s all so tiresome. Enter conservative historian and scholar Victor Davis Hanson. He recently listed some of the charges that Democrats have hurled at Trump and then broke down each issue, pointing out how Democrats did the exact same thing, before Trump.

Abbott (R) has put pressure on local law…
A judge in Nevada has thrown out criminal charges against six Republicans who falsely claimed to be presidential electors for Donald Trump in 2020, concluding that state prosecutors failed to show the six false electors acted with the intent to defraud election officials. “The State failed to present sufficient evidence from which a reasonable grand jury could infer the requisite intent to defraud,” Clark County Judge Mary Kay Holthus wrote, calling the evidence presented by prosecutors “at best, minimal.” Holthus sharply rebuked the case brought by Attorney General Aaron Ford, and it is the latest setback for the prosecutions aimed…
