One question that comes to mind in all this is how come RICO laws don't apply to Trump in this case. In a RICO case, if I told you to go kill someone and you went and did it, I'm as culpable for the murder as you are. But for some reason this doesn't apply to cases of free speech traceably inciting action by a third-party? I am entirely unsure when a situation can have RICO statutes applied, but the very existence of RICO also sorta contradicts free speech
