Former Republican National Committee (RNC) leader Michael Steele: Cannon putting Trump classified documents prosecution on trial
The Hill ^ | June 25, 2024 | Lauren Sforza

Former Republican National Committee (RNC) leader Michael Steele said the judge overseeing former President Trump’s classified documents case is “putting the prosecution on trial.”

Steele slammed Judge Aileen Cannon, who is overseeing the classified documents case, for handling the pretrial motions slowly and for being biased toward the prosecutors on MSNBC’s “Inside with Jen Psaki.” He referred to a New York Times report last week that said two of Cannon’s colleagues urged her to pass off the case, suggesting it might be better for the case to be heard in the Miami courthouse.

"Since then, as the Times puts it, she has exhibited hostility to prosecutors, handled pretrial motions slowly and indefinitely postponed the trial. It’s almost as if those judges who encouraged her to decline this case, knew how all of this would play out,” he said.

“In fact, Judge Cannon has proven herself to be so biased in Trump’s favor, she’s effectively putting the prosecution on trial,” he added.

Whether or not the Judge is biased in favor of Trump is debatable. She’s displaying an obvious bias against the government, probably because its case stinks.

It says mountains about the uselessness of the RNC that Michael Steele was its chairman in the recent past.

The “prosecution” should be on trial.

It is appalling to think that Michael Steele was the Chair of the REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE.

The fact the Michael Steele was the Chair of the RNC shows how corrupt the Republican Party was and continues to be today!!!!

Ah, Michael Steele — from the bad old days when the Assistant Democrats still pretended to be friendly to conservatives in public.

You’re right. I was just thinking about a few more present-day Chamber RINOs who could just as easily fill the bill. Gov. Kemp’s name was the first to come to mind.

Steele is stupid as a hammer.

Never has someone gone so far based purely on the pigment of their skin.

I had high hopes for this guy at one time. Then he started moving left and left and left till he fell over. Now is a truly a Republican in Name Only.

There is literally no difference between him and a democrat.

More like a Democrat Infiltrator. There was a lot of that during the Bush years.

This is why you can’t trust type people like Ben Carson, Byron Donald, or Tim Scott.
