    Has there been a more incompetent, political judge to ever sit on the bench? I can’t imagine how.

    Well, this should be no surprise.

    She’s been bending over backwards for Trump since day one, and she’s spent this entire time dragging her feet on even the most basic of issues. She created delay after delay, and is now using the delay she created as the justification for granting the postponement that Trump has been seeking all along.

    “Mid November.” What a god damned coincidence. The rotting corpse of Hellen Keller could have seen right through that load of bullshit.

      Is there anyway they can throw her out or do something about this cunts corruption? Seriously we going allow her to keep this from proceeding until she is sure he is President and can pardon himself.

      I like how they say it needs to be delayed because he’s campaigning. Fuck that. Crimes come first.

        My guess is she’ll grant a delay but won’t cite his campaigning because she knows that won’t fly with appellate judges.

        She’ll have enough other bullshit justifications to give Trump what he wants and get her kickback.

          My understanding is that scheduling delays are not appealable, at least not by the prosecution. Judges have the right to set their own schedules.

          She just doesn’t want to look blatantly corrupt if and when anything does go to appeal though. She’s doing her best to postpone this trial indefinitely while still maintaining something resembling plausible impartiality. I’m sure that when “Mid November 2024” comes around, she’ll suddenly have another reason to delay because Trump will then be appealing the results of the election about 47 times, and heaven forbid her case interfere with that and after all that he’s gonna need more time to prepare. So, January 2026 then? What? He’ll be too old and suffering from dementia and therefore isn’t competent to stand trial, even though he still appears on TV every day? Darn. I guess she’ll just have to postpone this trial indefinitely. It’s too bad…the people deserved to hear the truth, but whatever was she to do? The situation was completely unavoidable!!!
