Politics Trump Documents Federal Indictment & Trial

I'm already reading & hearing it's very possible/ almost guaranteed the Aug 14th date will be moved back.

One of the reasons (excuses) given is NPD Trump doesn't have his "trial legal team" assembled. I say TFB, he should've started that process months ago.

 

More fucking delays.
Five fucking months?
Just what we don't fucking need.

Unless Smith is hoping NPD Trump croaks.



I sincerely hope, and am almost certain, there is NFW Aileen Trump-Cannon will be involved with the Jan 01 case.

A conviction in the Jan 01 will be needed...if we hope to actually see NPD Trump in prison.

 

It's nice to have judge who likes you, and owes you big time for giving them a Job For Life.

It's already started. It only takes one juror -- either a plant, or someone acting independently -- who plans to acquit regardless of the evidence.

Redundancy alert.
I would not be a bit surprised if the DOJ, and many politicians, would be relieved if NPD Trump walks.


Cut & pasted from another article, note the last sentence:

Longtime Harvard Law Prof. Laurence Tribe called the former president's defense "ludicrous."

"There are only 2 ways for Trump to avoid conviction in the MAL case," he predicted. "Get Judge Cannon to delay trial till a new president pardons him, or get a Florida juror pre-committed to acquit regardless of the facts and the law. His odds look good."

 

That's just bleeping great. I wonder how the witnesses feel about it?

Either the DOJ is willing to take a big risk with Aileen Trump-Cannon, or they're establishing an out for when Trump gets acquitted or walks with no punishment. "Blame the judge, we did our job."

There are way too many powerful people who want this to end as quietly as possible. They see three acceptable outcomes: Mistrial, acquittal, or a quilty verdict with no real punishment.

Another possibility, less likely because NPD Trump has NPD: He develops a disabilitating illness, can no longer endure the physical & mental demands of going to trials.

 

I've been sort of sarcastically waiting for him to show up in Moscow.

It seems like he should be legally fucked - but I can't imagine the chaos if he gets jail time .. Let alone Real Time.

Then let the states get some.

Walt Nauta arraignment delays could hurt Jack Smith’s plans for Donald Trump's trial

Woodward and Nauta should've faced harsh sanctions after requesting a second delay. But Aileen Trump-Cannon wouldn't dream of making the defendants and their attorneys get with the program.

Can Nauta afford good legal counsel, a competent attorney in Florida? Are there such attorneys willing to risk not getting paid?

If the GOP foots the legal bill (NPD Trump should but won't), will they want a puppet attorney who would actually be looking out for NPD Trump?

 

Nauta's main attorney, Stanley Woodward, is being paid by Save America, NPD Trump's PAC. Nauta needs a new attorney not controlled by NPD Trump.

We might not see this trial start until 2025...after the 2024 election and certification of out 47th POTUS.

 

What kind of set-up?

A December trial date doesn't give them enough time to prepare?
Bullshit. What have they been doing the past three months (actually further back)?

NPD Trump's attorneys say a trial would interfere with him campaigning.
TFB! Your Average Joe wouldn't get additional time simply because he has something else going on and the trial would be an inconvenience.

Edit: They mention "no ongoing threat."
That sounds like a threat.

 

I mean...a reasonable person who wanted to Serve as president would want to clear this up first...

My criminal trial could be inconvenient to my attempt to become the Head of the Executive Branch where I can attempt to dismiss or pardon....

 

Absolutely.

I don't refer to her as Aileen Trump-Cannon because I like seeing his name.

I don't know if such a book exists, but I'd like to read a summary of how NPD Trump managed to poison our judicial system. Across the board, not just the SCOTUS.

 

I don't think Aileen Trump-Cannon cares about how guilty NPD Trump is. On the very slim chance he's actually convicted -- there will be a plant on the jury to make certain he isn't -- she will let him walk.

The more I see this case 'progress,' the more I see collusion, but in much larger picture. Everybody, with the possible exception Jack Smith*, will gladly let this case delay indefinitely in the hopes that by the time nothing actually happens to NPD Trump very few people will care and even fewer will be outraged.

* Jack Smith might not be in on this, or he might be. He seems intense, and his record is impressive, but he could know putting on a great show of effort is just that, a show. Especially under the right circumstances.

His lack of effort to remove Aileen Trump-Cannon was, and still is a concern. Suppose Smith has some strategy to wait for her to do something outrageously pro-Trump before requesting her removal. That might look great in the news, but that would also (further) delay the trial. To go back to the question, is Smith knowingly participating in the delay game?


*******
Some people might want to look forward the Jan 06 insurrection case, & the Georgia voting interference case, but those cases (I'm avoiding the the word trial) would be much tougher than the documents trial.
*******


The time line is a factor. The Georgia case could be three years, or more, from now. NPD Trump isn't getting any younger. His massive ego might tell him not to fake being cognitively incompetent to stand trial, but if someone somehow managed to get him to realize he could actually spend time in prison, he might decide being 'less strong' isn't that bad.

What completely sucks is how NPD Trump is being gently treated because he's an XPOTUS, has the backing of the GOP, & can threaten violence using his braindead minions.

 

Hopefully Decembef remains firm, & we won't see any delays.
