because he's broken the law and because the indictment is ready now. Simple as that. Dressing it up as a political witch hunt distracts from the fact that the man has done things that might very well be illegal. How can the party of law and order be against due process? Oh sorry, I forgot - it's only the party of law and order if it's convenient to them. My bad.
This will ultimately only lead to a slap on the wrist, and of course he won't spend a single day in prison if he's convicted - but the fact that a president is at least partly held accountable for his illegal actions is a win for democracy. And given that there's other cases pending (Georgia should be ready soon, and then of course there's the documents case too), I hope the man is bombarded with indictments and court dates going forward.
