Will any trial of Trump’s multiple indictments actually get underway before the 2024 election? Doubt it. So the only thing Trump has to do to stay out of jail is to win that election. All the indictments will then be quashed. No trials. Like it never happened.
@johnldeboer maybe the federal ones, but not the one expected out of Georgia in a few weeks.
@Darkenyght1701 The key is to get the trials underway before the election. If Trump wins, he can quash indictments, but I don’t think he can cancel trials. And the DOJ can preempt any state AG, so indictments in NY and Georgia won’t be safe either.
@johnldeboer so my ex wife used to be an AUSA for the EDVA.
I asked her to backstop me on this
She had a two word message for you .
" You're wrong"
@Darkenyght1701 Which part of what I said is wrong?
@johnldeboer the part of " DoJ can overrule any indictments from a state AG".
In truth, they can't.
The only way DoJ can get involved on the state level is if there is a violation of federal law, which in neither the GA nor the NY indictments is the case.
Both indictments are on violations of state laws.
@Darkenyght1701 Yes, but can’t it be argued that federal law is involved? Trying to change Georgia votes wasn’t aimed at the governor’s race, after all, but in the vote for president. And it’s federal law that makes the Georgia result part of the Electoral College. Sorry, but I’m thinking like a Trump DOJ might approach the issue. And as convoluted as this attempt might be, bear in mind there’s a Supreme Court which might just agree with it.
@johnldeboer no, because of the simple fact he asked the GA SoS to " find" 11k+ votes to throw the election in his favor, which would violate GA election law.
And they can " approach " it until the sun becomes a red giant. Doesn't change the fact they wouldn't have a legal leg to stand on.
You HAVE seen the mental midgets that work as his lawyers?
Rudy has already been disbarred twice, and just might be a codefendant in GA.
John Eastman is a clueless jackass.
@Darkenyght1701 Well, the issue might be moot, as the Georgia legislature is looking into how they can remove prosecutors. Should’ve seen that coming.
@Darkenyght1701 Yeah, well, they’re against it. Big surprise. But DeSantis has already done it in his state. Georgia now has the power to do that too.
@johnldeboer and on appeal it would be overturned on the grounds of voter nullification
@johnldeboer and every DA in Georgia is up in arms against it.
it's called subverting the will of the people
