Judge Merchan Will Shut Down Trial Early Monday So Alternate Juror Can See Dentist – But Same Judge Won’t Allow President Trump to Attend His Son’s Graduation!

New York Judge Juan Merchan will reportedly shut down the latest lawfare trial against President Trump early today so that an alternate juror can visit the dentist.

The Boston Herald reported:

Donald Trump’s hush money trial will adjourn earlier than expected on Monday to accommodate an alternate juror’s emergency dental appointment in the afternoon.

Judge Juan M. Merchan had previously planned to adjourn the trial at 2 p.m. because of Passover, but will now adjourn the case at 12:30 p.m. He plans to end at 2 p.m. on Tuesday for the holiday.

This is the same conflicted judge who will NOT allow President Donald Trump to attend his son’s graduation ceremony.

Ben Bergquam reported this breaking news on The War Room.

Something has to give in this trial pertaining to this anti-Trump judge.

Typical Russian show trial. I bet Trump would get better justice in North Korea before he’d see any here in NYC.

Last week there were corrections and updates that the judge has not said Trump cannot attend the graduation.

Looking for fairness and competence in a judge? Good luck.

Probably 10% are okay. Trump appointed 400 of the federal ones. Others learned wokeness every day from preschool through law school. Indoctrinated.

I guess that wasn’t on the world’s most thorough jury selection pool questionnaire.

We keep using this word ‘judge’ for Merchan, when the correct descriptor for what he is would be scumbag.

And maybe Trump 2.0, if he wins, will learn his lesson and fire all fireable prosecutors and SES across the federal government on day one.

This is just another way Merchan is giving Trump and all of us the middle finger.

Is there anyone we can call to complain about the judge?

Telegraphs the judge’s perception that Trump is already guilty
and deserving of punitive sanctions.

Each of these first three trials have MAJOR problems, that
should see them evaporate after showing up at the appeals
courts.

This judge obviously doesn’t realize that when you find yourself in hole, stop digging.

It would be easier for one person to reschedule a dentist appointment than to try to get a school to reschedule a graduation ceremony.

The judge wants to make it easy for the jurors so they will know how they are expected to vote.

Yeah, that’s a good point. Clearly prejudicial...

I can’t find a transcript of Bragg’s opening statement. Is it a secret?

The decision regarding the graduation has not been made.

How is it even possible that this corrupt leftist judge isn’t removed by a higher court or the Bar association? None of them care about justice and jurisprudence only because they hate and fear Trump?

Reminds me of the Chauvin murder trial. Just before the trial, either the city of Minneapolis or the country (Hennepin Co.) paid out a massive sum of money ($27 million?) to George Floyd’s family to signal to the jury how they were supposed to vote. As insurance there was also a BLM activist among the jurors to make sure they voted the right way (he complained afterwards that they didn’t vote to convict fast enough to suit him).
