I expect her to recuse herself. There are significant pressures coming to bear.
I'm not a betting person, but I would bet that she won't recuse herself, because corrupt dystopia.

I watched a video explaining how she was selected and why she has to recuse. If she doesn't remove herself the 11th circuit WILL. This is not her court, she is from Ft Pierce, a 3 hour drive away..

Same report I heard.
Circuit court will prevail. Every eventuality has been examined by Jack Smith. It will go better to have the case in FL opposed to DC from insurgence standpoint.
what about the timing? i saw some experts weigh in on the unfortunate timing, if she drags it out and this is not resolved before election time with all the appeals and other courts, would it just get delayed?
@peeppeepcircus @LnzyHou @KGinKS @sloudermilk
There are ways to drag it out that would be difficult to counter.

Florida Supreme Court has ruled on standard times for various sorts of trials there. Standard for a jury case in Florida federal court is 18 months, with extra time allowed for special circumstances.

Yes, but this seems very different. The indictment is scathing and was made public without going through Barr's pro-Trump filter first.
I feel Jack Smith has done a stellar job and even if Trump manages to drag it out after a guilty verdict with that self-pardon ridiculousness, there are New York & Georgia. No pardons happening there

Akin to Russian chess vs Alabama checkers

🤞
and good point.
this feels like a massive showdown between Jack Smith's brilliance and shamelessly corrupt power. i think it will feel like watching a tennis ball go back and forth in a tennis match, at least in FL.
