It seemed that JOshua Steinglass was finally done explaining the law. He said the prosecution had presented a “mountain of evidence” related to its theory of the Trump Tower conspiracy. But then he went right back to it, briefly, as he begins to explain the “unlawful means” that prosecutors will ask the jurors to find Trump used to aid his election win.

The defense just lodged another objection, but Steinglass made it across the legal-explanation minefield to a safer zone of explaining the prosecution’s theory of unlawful means: That’s not a legal explanation, just argument.
