I think the entire point is to smokescreen and deligitimize Trump's legal situation by trying to show people "look, we're doing the same thing they are doing to us!" Doesn't matter if it's completely different, or if it even goes anywhere legally. A lot of people will either not take the time to follow both cases or they'll be disenfranchised enough to tune out altogether, which is exactly what they're hoping for.
