It's Official, The J6 Trump Trial Will Be Delayed

[gab13by13]

Supposed to happen March 4th, but judge Chutkan has scheduled another trial on April 2nd. This just affirms what everyone knew, the trial wasn't happening in March.

Waiting on the DC Appeals court to give us an idea when Jack Smith can get Trump to trial.

Time Matters

1. As long as it takes place before the election

it still leaves enough time. This case is the one, and the only one, which I think will take place before the election.

2. And once the DC court finally rules, Trump will appeal to the full DC court. Than it's on to the Supreme Court.

In matters of such national importance to voters in determining whether to vote for a convicted criminal, one would think the courts could rule within days, not weeks. His immunity claim is ridiculous. How was this not thrown out immediately?

3. Yup, I said this before,

allowing a president to murder someone is ridiculous, frivolous, stupid.

4. Little early, but i'm wondering after the circuit court decides TFG has NO immunity

What SC judge will get the appeal from TFG? Will it be Roberts? (hope he just denies the appeal)

[gab13by13]

6. The court shouldn't even take the appeal, but...

[tritsofme]

9. Roberts is the circuit justice for the DC Court of Appeals, FWIW

15. TY!

5. I really don't understand

why some people think getting Slobby to trial before the election is gonna be some magical bullet. I just don't get it.

7. Let's play some chess.😊

I don't do polls, but polls say that a convicted Trump loses to President Biden.

Picture Trump, forced to sit in a courtroom 6-7 hours a day for 2 or 3 months, muzzled. Sitting there while all of his criminality is laid out in the open for all to see. Did I say he is muzzled? Having to go to court for 3 months will destroy Trump, physically and mentally.

When we get Trump to trial, he loses. Trump has no evidence to prove his innocence.

10. Because our elections often depend on a margin of a few thousand voters...

...and even if many of Trump's supporters won't give a damn if Trump is convicted, a conviction (no matter if it's appealed for years to come) will sway a few thousand voters. That could make all the difference.

We need every advantage in saving our democracy we can get.

11. LOL! Look where those goalposts are now!

[Initech]

8. They just keep moving the goal posts, don't they?

[senseandsensibility]

12. Yes

I've been feeling more optimistic, but this is a downer.

[gab13by13]

13. Not yet,

as Weissmann says, watch how the Appeals court treats the stay in its decision.

[Fiendish Thingy]

14. Trial will start no later than August 15

Could be much sooner, if SCOTUS denies cert.

According to former impeachment counsel Norm Eisen.

Looks like Chutkan is anticipating that potential timeline.

[bluestarone]

16. Can i ask this here?

Could judge Cannon Screw everything up here, with the Florida trial? Could she be waiting, just to mess things up in the courts?

[Mr.Bill]

17. I've said it here before,

Trump will die of natural causes before all the appeals play out.

[republianmushroom]

18. Are we surprised. NO.
