Original Note:
This claim is misleading. Trump was indicted on racketeering and conspiracy counts. Actions that are otherwise lawful can support racketeering and conspiracy charges (such as buying rope from a hardware store, when the intent is to use it to tie up a bank guard). https://fm.cnbc.com/applications/cnbc.com/resources/editorialfiles/2023/08/14/23SC188947_-_CRIMINAL_INDICTMENT.pdf
