49. They won't delay it for years

Because they can't. Federal trial guidelines require trials to be held 70 days after indictment, or after all delay attempts have been exhausted.

And TFG is fast running out of road for delays. He used up a whole bunch of them with challenges to the search warrants and executive privilege claims, even *before* the indictment. That will hurt him, and much faster than you think.
