14. The docs case is very strong with undeniable evidence.

That trumper judge will do what she can to delay it but no one can get around the evidence of him having stolen docs and then hiding and moving them to obstruct justice.

IMO though the J6 case is the strongest. SC Smith has worded the indictments precisely so the argument tried by his attorneys that he has free speech/First Amendment rights, as threats to violence acted upon is not protected speech.

And then the other silly one contending he was acting on advice of counsel that he won the election is obviated as there are many instances cited by people like his very own AG, Bill Barr, that he was told that he lost.

The most recent one offered by his weak team that he was only trying to delay the counting of the EC votes to recount or send to the states' legislatures to audit is illegal and is not prescribed in the Constitution anywhere and therefore is nothing but a croc.

This IMO is stronger even than the docs case as the nation saw the attempted coup on TV, and we also saw he did nothing after spurring it on verbally to stop it...for several hours in violation of his oath of office to defend and protect the Constitution and the nation.

It looks like SC Smith targeted only trump and not the co-comspirators to cut down on multiple lawyer motions causing delays so the trial can get started quick, even before the docs case, and with a no nonsense judge and blue jury pool, trump is in big trouble as moving to another venue won't fly even as the whole nation is familiar with the case and no jurisdiction is impartial.

He's going down, probably eventually in Georgia and Florida, but first in DC.
