    I’d put just a bit more distance in there. Trap, to me, implies bait or deception being used to lure something or someone into a place or situation of your design.

    Jack Smith did not design the situation that the defense team placed themselves in. I am reasonable sure he’s overjoyed that they did.

    The OP article does make a good case for exactly how that defense will fail in multiple ways, from a legal standpoint.
