This event scores 21.65 on constitutional damage (below 25 threshold) and 62.08 on distraction/hype. The A-score reflects genuine constitutional concerns: election integrity prosecution (3.5), rule of law application to former president (4), and corruption allegations (2.5). Judicial mechanism adds +15% modifier, single-state scope reduces by -15%. The B-score is elevated by extremely high media friendliness (85) and outrage potential (75) around Trump prosecution, with strong tribal signaling and political figure focus driving intentionality to 8/15. The D-score of -40.43 clearly indicates List B classification: high distraction relative to actual constitutional impact. While the legal proceeding has constitutional relevance, the media treatment and public discourse generate disproportionate attention compared to the single-state scope and routine nature of DA defending charges.
