New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg wasnβt even the person who announced that a grand jury found former presidentβand current Republican presidential candidateβDonald Trump guilty on 34 felony charges of falsifying business records to hide a hush money payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels. And yet, white people on the internet seem to be mad mad at him.
Speaking about the case, Bragg commented, βWe cannot and will not normalize serious criminal conduct.β And when asked about the verdict, he kept things short and sweet by saying, βI did my job.β

In fact, according to several legal analysts, heβs done his job better than anyone could have in his situation when faced with handling such a polarizing case.
And yet, no one wants Black people to bend the rules more than a white person in trouble. And in the seconds, minutes and hours that followed Trumpβs guilty verdict, white people have been attacking Bragg left and right on X, formerly Twitter.
βWhen Alvin Bragg said βI did my jobβ β he was talking to one person: Joe Biden,β posted North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum. βNow itβs up to all of us to do our job: send @realdonaldtrump back to the White House!β
While some believe Trumpβs guilty verdict will lessen his chances at another presidential term. Others say it will only hype up his base, and you know white people are mad mad when they start talking about war.
βTRUMP 2024! World War Two Pearl Harbor all over again,β posted someone going by CHEEZIT1350 on X. βIsoroku Yamamoto said, β I fear all we have done is too awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve.β Well, guess what, Alvin Bragg woke him up again.β
Another social media commentator going by Michelle Elaine Design, who says she makes handmade jewelry of all things, called Bragg a βdisgrace to the legal professionβ in a post.
βThis is political persecution & will not stand on appeal. Karma is a bitch & what goes around comes around!β wrote Michelle Elaine. βYou have personally elected Donald Trump to POTUSβ¦Americans hate unfairness & will respond to this injustice.β
And then came the attacks on DA Braggβs weight.
βFat Alvin in New York canβt put murderers, rapists and carjackers in prison, but he wants to send Donald Trump to Rikers Island because murderers rapists and carjackers are not a threat to the Democrat base they are the Democrat base #AlvinBraggΒ #Trump,β wrote @quinnwarroom247 on X.
And of course, no Republican political coverage would be complete without a few comments of outrage from professional white woman Megyn Kelly, who has a habit of saying nasty things about Black women.
βGuilty on all counts,β Kelly tweeted. The country is disgraced. Alvin Bragg should be disbarred. They will rue the day they unleashed this lawfare to corrupt a presidential election.β
Honestly, they all need to shut up and just take this L. See you all at the polls in November.
