2. In the case of Trump, wouldn't it be hard for DOJ to say no to such an offer? And the case would be over. But now Trump risks being charged with a felony for which there seems to be a lot of evidence of guilt. — PolitiTweet.org

1. Non-lawyer here, with a speculation on Trump's legal "strategy". Given the facts, I assume a "normal" defendant would be thrilled if he could get DOJ to agree to a misdemeanor plea and fine--"gee, it was all a misunderstanding, you've got the docs back, let's call it a day." — PolitiTweet.org

3. But perhaps Trump thinks being persecuted by Biden's DOJ helps him politically (especially in a GOP primary), and he's confident he won't actually be charged or at least that he won't be convicted? — PolitiTweet.org
