Donald Trump’s stooges Jacob Wohl and Jack Burkman have been criminally charged in election plot
Jacob Wohl has pulled so many fraudulent stunts in the name of trying to help Donald Trump, including making up phony sex scandals about everyone from Elizabeth Warren to Robert Mueller, we’ve lost track of all his antics. In fact we’ve grown so tired of his attention-seeking stunts, we’ve intentionally stopped tracking them. But now it turns out Wohl has finally crossed a line and gotten himself criminally charged.
Back in August, Jacob Wohl and his partner in crime Jack Burkman sent out a series of robocalls in Michigan with the intent of tricking people out of voting. This isn’t just a scam, it’s a felony. The Michigan Attorney General has announced felony charges against Wohl and Burkman, and it’s notable that these are state level charges, which Trump can’t pardon.
Jacob Wohl has been given a brief window of time to voluntarily turn himself in before he’s arrested. Given Wohl’s seemingly unstable nature, it’s impossible to predict if he’ll try to beat the charges at trial, or if he’ll cut a plea deal against the bigger fish who have been behind the deranged games he likes to play. Either way, this means yet another Trump henchman is off the table before the election.
