Dershowitz keeps claiming this is a First Amendment case. It is not. The indictment specifically states Trump has a right to voice his opinion about the election, and even lie about the election if he wants to. Trump is not being indicted for statements made in his Jan. 6 speech.
The First Amendment does not protect your right to commit a crime. If your speech is part of a fraudulent conspiracy, you aren't protected.
I think the indictment might be a stretch on fraud against the US, but you can expect to hear more evidence as co conspirators get charged in superceding indictments.
If you were correct about this, Smith would not have manipulated Trump's comments when he quoted him in the indictment.

Please. It's an indictment. It isn't evidence. There is plenty of time for the DOJ to present evidence and the Defense to rebut.
But also, Trump is not being indicted for inciting the Capitol Building demonstration. The groups and individuals who participated in the demonstration are not part of the alleged conspiracy.
