Attorney Lindsey Halligan said that if Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's inquiry is not ending then 'it should be.'

Former President Donald Trump speaks at the New Hampshire Republican State Committee's Annual Meeting on January 28, 2023 in Salem, New Hampshire."I think they just are trying to keep the case alive—but it looks like the case is dead," Halligan said."If not, it should be. Bragg needs to wrap this case up, stop focusing on someone who doesn't even live in New York City, and focus on protecting those living in New York City from the violent crime going on there.

Halligan also said Bragg's investigation into Trump is politically motivated, while noting how much the 2024 Republican candidate can still draw a crowd. "I think it really comes down to who else can get 20,000 or more people to go to Waco, Texas, for a 90-minute speech, who can even get 2,000 people to go watch them speak for 90 minutes," Halligan said.

"That's what this is all about. They hate to acknowledge that President Trump can draw a crowd. He has created a patriotic movement, and it seems that some people just can't stand that."
