Donald Trump sets a record

This may be one of those records that stands forever or at least a very long time. A good example of this type of record is Lou Gehrig’s record of playing in 2,130 consecutive baseball games. This record stood for 56 years until surpassed by Cal Ripken Jr. of the Baltimore Orioles.

Donald Trump’s may be an even greater record. In over 200 years of US history, no former President has ever been criminally indicted as far as I know. But in just in a few months, Donald Trump has been criminally indicted 4 times.

August 14, 2023 Georgia

Multiple charges related to a violation of various Georgia laws to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.

Perhaps the details listed in the Georgia case may act as a model for other states to investigate various schemes to overturn the election in their state. If there are more indictments, it may further solidify Trump’s record.
