    lol, twenty fucking twenty four. I know the court system can be a little slow, but this is ridiculous. And I’m not sure how much faith I have that it won’t just get delayed. Trump has constantly gotten away with shit for too long and continues to do so.

    Well, that is almost immediately getting delayed until 2025.

    Presumably the orange shitstain will have at least one competent lawyer who argues for delays because that is right during the time he is campaigning for president. And even most Democrats will begrudgingly support it because this is very much the kind of weapon that WILL be thrown back at them. AOC runs for reelection and gets investigated on bogus charges to prevent her from campaigning. And so forth

    Of course, the reality is that republicans are going to do that regardless of what happens here. But Democrats are notoriously good at “decorum”.

      Decorum? You seem to be conflating whatever it is Jim Jordan does with the actual state and federal charges Trump’s currently facing under indictment.

    …this is just going to drag on until he eventually succumbs to his decades-in-the-making suicide by cheeseburger.

    Maybe we’ll get lucky and see some vigilante justice, but I’m not holding my breath for that, either.

    He has the New York State trial in March of 24. That trial isn’t as delayable as the documents case.

    His impending cases for January 6th and racketeering in GA aren’t as delayable either.

    If he does manage to stay out of jail before the presidential election, everyone who opposes him will have to make it their mission to help campaign against him.

      J6 with a DC circuit that is less likely to put up with his delaying tactics and shenanigans in general.
