It was extremely stupid. You had a state court declare that he broke a a very narrowly defined federal law without any charges filed, let alone a conviction, when the conduct in question was prima facia perfectly legal.

The Dems always think that they're the only one who will use their dirty tricks, and they never learn. Dems removing the filibuster for judicial appointees is how Trump was able to get so many federal judges in office during his presidency.

If they had gotten away with this there's nothing stopping a state like Mississippi from just declaring the Democratic party to be a terrorist organization under the federal definition and criminalizing contributions to them. What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
