Another Day, Another Indictment.

If the allegations in the latest indictment of Donald Trump hold up, the former president is a common criminal — and an uncommonly stupid one.

Everyone knows, as the Watergate scandal drove home: The coverup is always worse than the crime. Everyone, that is, but Trump.

According to the superseding indictment handed up late Thursday, even after Trump knew the FBI was onto his improper retention of classified information, and even after he knew they were seeking security camera footage from the Mar-a-Lago storage areas where the material was kept — in other words, when any reasonably adept criminal would have known to stop digging holes — Trump made matters infinitely worse.

The Justice Department is adding allegations to the already indicted former President in what is now a slew of allegations of wrong doing. There will be more to come as Georgia prosecutors are gearing up for a possible leveling of allegations against Donald Trump. The public may grow weary of such an avalanche of indictments and feel that it’s overkill so to speak or they could just be done Mr. Trump and move on. His more ardent supporters, however, will never place any allegations of criminal wrong doing in the ‘legitimate category’ and chalk it up to elaborate which hunts.
