Leftists Irked Over Trial Delay [semi-satire]

News that Trump's "election interference" trial originally scheduled to start on March fourth has been taken off the calendar has some leftist "journalists" miffed. Politico reporters Kyle Cheney and Josh Gerstein complained that "this delay may result in Trump's conviction coming too late to ensure his defeat in the November voting." Similar complaints were expressed by MSNBC legal analyst Jordan Rubin and Columbia University law professor Daniel Richman.

Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif) tried to assuage their angst by pointing out "we anticipated this possibility and arranged for James Goldston, former president of ABC News, to create a documentary of the closed door hearings of the Select Committee to Investigate the January 6th Attack on the United States Capitol. This show will air on PBS. This prime time exposé is better than an actual trial because all the extraneous commentary that is typically injected into trials by defense attorneys was excluded. Every member of the committee--including the two Republicans permitted to participate--knew Trump was guilty. The findings of this powerful and unanimous committee will be viewed by millions before the November election. While voters won't be able to send Trump to prison they will be able to defeat his attempt to seize power and destroy our democracy."

In related news, former agent Kyle Seraphin says that "the FBI believed that it had identified the person responsible for planting the 'bombs' found outside the Democrat National Committee and the Republican National Committee on January 6, 2021. Inasmuch as these bombs were the only tangible evidence of a planned act of violence I was surprised that I was barred from interviewing this person of interest." Steve D'Antuono, the former head of the FBI's Washington Field Office, explained "higher-ups decided that since there was no link to the MAGA extremists who were attacking the government this lead was not worth pursuing."

This is simply more proof that this “trial” with the biased corrupt judge and Smith is a political trial, not a real crime trial.
