Constitutional Law Professor James Sample was interviewed by The Washington Post about the continued legal challenges faced by allies of Donald Trump who spread falsehoods and tried to reverse his 2020 presidential loss.
“It’s almost like the very top of the food chain is going to go and get off without consequence. And the very bottom of the food chain – those who actually engaged in the day-of kind of activities – are going to be pardoned,” said Professor Sample. “But the folks who were in a sense the field leaders … seem to be the ones who are going to have the most lasting consequences.”
Professor Sample regularly comments on voting rights and constitutional issues in leading media outlets.
