"Justice Juan Merchan just rescheduled next week’s hearing on Donald Trump’s potential gag order violations. It will now be Thursday morning, not Wednesday afternoon." WAPO story on Merchan kicking the ball down the road further. Why is this finding so hard to rule on? I don't get it.

@altucker

Wednesdays are the days this trial ISN'T in session, so Merchan can preside over a mental illness court.

Not everything is a conspiracy.

@altucker

very likely the delay was based on a request since Trump was planning a rally in Wisconsin on Wednesday

Also, very likely there is going to be a new gag order that is a lot more specific on what isn't acceptable, takes a while to lawyer-ese it , and the Judge could warn trump another violation could result in jail.

@altucker Perhaps, Merchan is hoping his threat that he can use the violations in sentencing will sink into his addled brain?
