Yes, there is plenty of time if the GOP senate supports POTUS. They won’t be doing that. That is the smoke signal Graham is sending up. Most likely on behalf of McConnell.
In criminal proceedings, you have many members of what is known as the "courtroom workgroup." In this particular case, we have a corrupt D.A. bringing bogus charges and our POTUS is apparently going to be stuck with a public defending who is making a back-room deal with that D.A.on what his client will and won't bring forth in his defense, rather than bringing down the house.
Why? Because after this trial is over - Mutt and Jeff will be working on some other stuff together down the road. It happens ALL THE TIME in courts all over America.
So - the deal will be the client will get off - but his rep will get tainted by the DA's smear campaign - rather than the client being able to run the trial and bring up all the dirt the DA (and probably some that the public defender's office is into also) is guilty of.
That's what is happening here...and it happens every single day in courtrooms all over America.
Now - If this happens - I am CERTAINLY not OK with it. And if Trump doesn't raise holy hell about it - that will raise some serious red flags for me. 1) Because I know what he has promised about his trial and 2) I know what I would want to do if I had been smeared falsely for 3 years. I would not take no for an answer - I am the President - and you couldn't make me. It would be over my dead body. These people would pay - and it would be on the stand in front of God and everyone with their hand on a Bible.
