Trump March 4 DC Trial Date is “Pretty Shocking”
Legal Insurrection ^ | 29 Aug 2023 | Willam A Jacobson

Posted on 08/30/2023 7:43:19 AM PDT by Rummyfan

My appearance on NTD TV: “I don’t know how [the Judge] justifies the day before Super Tuesday. Clearly that puts the defense under enormous burden to prepare their defense…. I think this really does deprive Trump of his right to a fair trial.”

Trump’s lawyer has said the date deprives Trump of effective assistant of counse:

Lauro: “We will certainly abide by your honor’s ruling, as we must. We will not be able to provide adequate representation.” Warned that the “trial date will deny President Trump the opportunity to have effective assistance of counsel.”

Retired criminal defense lawyer Leslie McAdoo Gordon, who has extensive experience in DC federal court, made a similar point:

Here is the briefing schedule that Judge Chutkan issued in DJT’s DC case today. These dates are patently ridiculous & constitute a violation of his 6th Amendment right to the effective assistance of counsel. Disgraceful.

Smith rigged the filing schedule to get the most anti Trump Judge in DC. This is just the beginning of the payoff.

Couldn’t Super Tuesday be rescheduled?
No one ever thought a former president would be treated with such blatant bias by a judge in the first place.
Why not establish yet another precedent?
Two sides can play this game.

It’s almost like ALL these indictments are nothing more than a smokescreen. I think even Dems realize every case will be tossed out on appeal or collapse under it’s own weight of stupidity.

The Dems are literally tossing EVERYTHING they can dream up against the wall in hopes something will stick. They are actively engaging in open election interference. Where The Hell is the GOP Congress??? Is there one member with a set of balls who will go toe to toe with the Dems? I know, rethorical question.

Reading the transcripts, I find it both shocking and laughable that when defense objected to the short time for discovery prep the judge told defense that they should have been examining the discovery information prior to the indictment.

Of course it’s purely political.

The Left doesn’t care. They want blood.

The GOP cares... but isn’t willing to get dirty.

“The GOP cares... but isn’t willing to get dirty.”

This is where we differ... the GOP does NOT care.. they want Trump Gone... they will provide lip service at most to pander to the base, but they don’t care.. at least not the establishment leadership.

People need to wake... the POLITICAL ESTABLISHMENT DOES NOT CARE ABOUT YOU, OR THIS COUNTRY.... I don’t care what letter is beside their name.... IF either side actually DID care, Trump would have been nothing more than an also ran in 2016 no one would even remember.

The establishment cares about only 1 thing, the status quo, and the money flowing into their pockets... PERIOD.

LOL - this Star Chamber is all about depriving President Trump of his rights. That is the point of this persecution. A real court would have already dismissed the charges with prejudice and sanctioned heavily all the persecutors involved.

The dems have planned this thing down to the finest detail. They are absolutely fixated on the election and Trump. Trump will prevent the country from becoming 100% totalitarian and repressive.
They aren’t just going to use the trials. They have many other things prepared in case they need them against Trump.

It’s Soviet level in-your-face abuse of power at this point.

Such is life. But life goes on until we meet our maker.
Make the best of it as you can.

This is so blatantly in our faces.

How I despise these evil crooks. I knew we had them among us, but never realized how bad the infestation was.

The democrats have over a million pages of charges on Trump lawyers would have to read over 37,000 pages a day to be ready for all the trials aka inquisition.

It’s a communism as it gets

Corrupt Dims (I know...redundant etc.), knew all along their corrupt judges would push this stuff along in order to convict Trump prior to elections. It’s all they have. They will then have to hope stupid voters will turn away from a “convicted” Trump.

It’s all they have. Well...they do have their 2020 Covid ballot harvesting scheme ready to go when needed, but this time Biden (or his replacement) will need 100 million votes.
