Bragg Ignores Trump Case in Re-Election Bid Amid Fading Poll Numbers and Criticism

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg has distanced himself from even mentioning his 2024 prosecution of President Donald Trump over falsifying business records as he campaigns for re-election. The case, which is expected to be a high-profile trial in the coming months, has been largely absent from Bragg's campaign rhetoric so far. Despite its significance, Bragg has instead focused on his overall track record and law enforcement accomplishments during his first term. By avoiding direct references to the Trump case, Bragg aims to avoid being tied to controversy and maintain a more positive public image.
