They now allege that Trump crossed

a line no modern president has dared

approach: conspiring to defraud the United States,

obstructing and attempting to obstruct the certification of an election,

and violating rights guaranteed by the Constitution itself.

At the core is a chilling accusation—that the peaceful

transfer of power was not just challenged, but targeted.

This case is no longer about partisan loyalty or cable-news spin;

it is about whether the rule of law can still bind the most powerful.

Supporters see persecution, critics see long-delayed accountability,

and millions of uneasy citizens watch,

wondering what happens if a jury decides a president tried to break democracy to keep power.

Whatever the verdict, the country that enters this trial

will not be the same one that emerges from its final, irrevocable judgment.
