I get why they didn’t want to indict Trump… yet. They can’t charge him twice and were concerned about a lack of evidence. If they get a bunch charged with this, some of those people might provide more evidence against Trump directly to support a new charge that does have enough evidence.
What I don’t get is why they specifically asked to not indict all 20 GOP people who signed off on the fake electors document or the GOP attorney who worked on it. Those people all knew what they were doing. Maybe the crimes were small enough that it would be expensive and time consuming with very little payoff that distracts from the bigger case they want to pursue.
