The election will speak to that.

That's not true.

You think the public would support a newly elected POTUS being disabled from doing his job via Judicial Branch interference?

I think the public supports the rule of law and the EC is designed to skew a fair representation of the national support of candidates.

Remember, if the President was elected via popular vote, it would be almost impossible for a Republican to have a hope of winning. That excess Democrat support can sway moderates after an election if Trump engages in behavior that the moderates find offensive.

I imagine there are a TON of moderates who would never imagine Trump would interfere in his various prosecutions if he won the Presidency, and they would react very unfavorably if he did. Their support of trump assumes he would be subject to the laws of the US like anyone else. It would only be a conditional support. Very few people outside of MAGA-land see this as "prosecutorial interference" and exponentially fewer see it as "judicial interference".
