Even Cuomo sees Bragg as being political and wrong to go after Trump

“when they see prosecutors bringing these political cases it just affirms everybody’s cynicism.”

Cuomo points out the obvious... that Bragg is pursuing an extremely old misdemeanor offence that was not considered worthy of prosecution at the time it happened.

Why would Bragg think this is important when his city is burning to the ground from violent crime? Good question and one that even prominent Democrats are starting to ask.

Cuomo also correctly points out that Bragg is trying to tie the misdemeanor to a Federal crime that wasn't charged, questioning (as many do) how this actually works to build a real case? Oddly, Cuomo is making many of the same arguments as the legal experts I follow, although most of this is so obvious a 6 year old should be able to see it.

When Bragg is starting to lose prominent Democrats (especially prominent NY Democrats) you know his situation is becoming dire. Does he still follow through now that he understands the fallout for doing so? He might find some agreement with "some" NY Democrats and old wrinkled lily white nursing home residents, but he is losing prominent support with most everyone not afflicted with TDS.

Lastly... if he charges and loses, the conventional wisdom was that he could still see support, possibly even playing the martyr. But that might end up being his worst nightmare. Imagine, all this pursuit, only to watch Donald Trump gloat about how he beat Bragg at his own game. It would ultimately make him a laughingstock.
