Was charging a Trump business aide for tax evasion worth the permanent damage to the presidency? After reading the indictments handed down last week, the former president’s supporters and critics should agree that the answer is no. President Biden may well suffer the harm, too.

Prosecutors claim that Weisselberg, and the company as a whole, engaged in a scheme for the past 15 years.
