“In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial”
The public needs to see the evidence too.
Trump is an old man and faces 37 counts as I recollect.
Pick a few documents that were sensitive when Biden was sworn in but no longer are.
It was Comey and his memos that led me to this conclusions. He classified them and then he declassified them when he got caught passing stuff to the media.
What classifying does is shorten the list of who can see them.
So who knows what they really have. I would guess that ALL the "supposed" classified documents that the President has are copies only.
I think (hoping) the judges decision is going to be a "gotcha" moment for not only the NARA but the entire crew of conspirators to keep Trump out of the race.
That move though would risk alienating the jury.
I would expect Smith to as much as admit defeat as to the trial timing, by appealing this decision.
