One of former President Donald Trump’s fiercest critics is questioning whether any other defendant would’ve been charged in the hush money case.

"bill of attainder"

"A bill of attainder is an act of a legislature declaring a person, or a group of people, guilty of some crime, and punishing them, often without a trial."

In the United States, there is a pro-forma kangaroo court "trial", in order to pretend that there was actual "justice".
