There are reports that Donald Trump 鈥 whether he says so or not 鈥 is very upset about his indictment in Manhattan.

Trump鈥檚 attorney described him as being 鈥渦pset and angry, but not worried.鈥

More from Dave Ross: Trump’s post-indictment popularity shows character no longer counts

But why would a man under indictment attack the Manhattan District Attorney, call on his supporters to “protest” and “take our nation back,” and threaten 聽Why would he risk being seen as trying to interfere in a state prosecution?

I have a theory. I think the reason that he has a problem with this indictment is that it鈥檚 not big enough.

It鈥檚 old news.

And even worse, there’s nothing heroic about it. It’s just tawdry.

The whole Stormy Daniels episode reminds everybody that, at one point, he was just another pathetic old man looking for sex. That鈥檚 not the stuff of history books. That鈥檚 just 鈥渟ad鈥 as he himself might say.

So, I think he鈥檚 going to keep tossing accusations and threats and attacking the process, and possibly even incriminating himself 鈥 until he鈥檚 indicted for something bigger.

I think his hit iTunes track with the January 6 prisoners gave away his real goal, he wants to be locked up like they are.

He doesn鈥檛 want to be indicted for just covering up a sleepover 鈥 he wants to be indicted for insurrection! He wants to become the world鈥檚 best-known political prisoner.

Again, just my opinion 鈥 but if he鈥檚 trying to excite the Christian base, he needs to be seen as the guy who tried to plunge a dagger into the beast, not as the guy who took a porn star to bed in Lake Tahoe.
