Donald Trump is following a strategy that has served him well in the past, says Julian Zelizer .
Zelizer: It's not easy to figure out who's winning in Donald Trump's tangles with the law.
He says he's trying to divert media's attention by saying outrageous things that make him look dangerous or unhinged but are probably unprosecutable.
Trump is simply trying to delay, to create confusion and lend credence to the MAGA belief that Trump is being persecuted or prosecuted for being the leader of a political movement.
