For those who haven't been keeping up with the Trump trial calendar, Judge Cannon was the first to set her trial date for May 20, 2024. The DC judge Chutkan was next, and set her date for March 4th - two months ahead of the Cannon trial
Yup ... Chutkin - who is an experienced and well-respected judge - ain't messing around.
Cannon on the other hand is a mere novice ... with barely any actual trial experience at all.
Plus she's in the tank for Donnie ... as evidenced by the brutal slap down and raking over the coals she got the first time around @ the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals.
and not coincidentally the day before Super Tuesday.
No real evidence that it was anything but a coincidence.
Of course, there is something to be said for the American people having the matter resolved well before any upcoming coming elections.
This is not only blatant election interference,
BWAHAHAHAHA !
No.
It's the justice system functioning as intended.
but also an intent to deny Trump's attorneys the ability to provide an effective defense by requiring them to deal with two complicated cases that would overlap.
Overlap only in time, not in substance - two separate issues about different matters.
Mr. Big Mouth has deep pockets (supposedly) - let him hire two separate sets of attorneys to represent him in each matter.
He's already doing that to some extent anyways.
Cannon has blown up this strategy with her decision to pause the proceedings, with the likely result being to put more time between these two trials.
That's one way to look at it.
The other way is that Cannon, with her dilatory inclinations, opened the door for Chutkin to schedule earlier.
Whichever way you care to look at it one thing is for sure: It really sucks to be Donald Trump.
There are millions of pages to be reviewed by the defense team, and the govt is dragging their heels in turning over evidence.
Where do you think most of that evidence originated ?
It would be no surprise to see the documents trial delayed until after the Nov 24 election.
With the inexperienced Columbian Rookie™ Cannon presiding that's correct.
She already telegraphed where she's coming from ... and it has nothing to do with any "fairness" (real ... or mostly likely
imagined)
This is only fair and reasonable considering these are the two most important cases pending against Trump.
Nah ... it's unfair for the American people.
They're going to be voting ... they need information about those who are seeking the offices they will be voting on.
