"Let's delay the case" says the unqualified Trump appointed judge who should have recused herself.
The system should not rely on judges with a conflict of interest to recuse themselves. A judge that was appointed by the defendant just shouldnt be allowed to preside over that case. Period.
It's amazing how much of our government relies on the assumption that government officials will do the right thing. Turns out, it just took one con-man to blatantly just not give a fuck and the whole checks and balances thing fell completely apart.
Aye, Andrew Jackson really got one over on the supreme court with those natives. America's been an illegitimate farce for nearly two centuries now.
That’s why I don’t care if the trial gets delayed. It won’t be fair or meaningful anyway.
In fact, I hope she delays it long enough that it isn’t done until after the election. I’d rather Trump didn’t have a legal win to brag about.
Good point. Although it will almost certainly be appealed either way and all these cases will end in the Supreme Court. Increasingly it's looking like our current system of government will be on the line in the next election and we will either spin into dictatorship or hopefully end Trump's political career. A more confident voter would want Trump as the Republican candidate as it is likely he will hurt all Republican candidates. I'm not a more confident voter.
