“While the government appears to favor an expedited (and therefore cursory) approach to this case, it cannot point to any exigency or urgency requiring a rapid adjudication,” they wrote. “There is no ongoing threat to national security interests nor any concern regarding continued criminal activity.”

If the trial is pushed back until after the election & Trump wins, he could try to #pardon himself after taking office or have his #AttorneyGeneral #dismiss the matter entirely.

If granted, it could have the effect of pushing Trump’s trial into the final stages of the #PresidentialCampaign… or even past the #2024election.

The former president’s legal team argued in a court filing that no trial date should be set until all “substantive motions” in the case were resolved, setting up an early key decision by Judge #AileenCannon.
