Some Democratic partisans are quibbling about the use of the term “raid” to characterize what went down at Mar-a-Lago. Ask yourself: If 40 federal agents wielding weapons and a search warrant they won’t let you see came to your house, what would you call it – aside from a terrifying violation of your constitutional rights?
