The judge was not “chosen because he’s a political hack”. That would be an accurate charge to level at Judge Cannon, in Florida, needlessly delaying a federal trial involving top secret, highly sensitive government documents, some of which have yet to be located, taken by Trump from the White House despite the fact that they’re to be viewed in a compartmentalized fashion, and not left in boxes and bundles strewn all over a bathroom at a resort open to his buddies.,
Here’s what the attorney for Trump’s ac said about this “partisan hack”, who,is anything but, except to someone overwhelmed by consciousness of behavior that qualifies as illegal activity
Judge Merchan was efficient, practical, and listened carefully to what I had to say,” Nicholas Gravante, the attorney who represented Weisselberg in his plea in the tax fraud case, said last year.
“He was clear in signaling his judicial inclinations, which helped me tremendously in giving Mr. Weisselberg informed legal advice,” Gravante said. “Judge Merchan was always well-prepared, accessible, and – most importantly in the Weisselberg matter – a man of his word. He treated me and my colleagues with the utmost respect, both in open court and behind closed doors.”

@SevIsPamprinYouAlways "Truth is the first casualty of war".. And make no mistake, America is at war with itself since before Trump. But Trump and Trumpists are well armed and winning because of it. Many people no longer know what the truth is and few even care any more..😷

@beermeplease i am American and haven't been following anything either, too much sunshine to worry about that stuff for me.
@beermeplease All indictments and charges should be dropped, it's all nothing but a political kangaroo court.
Trump's lawyers didn't even put on a defense. I think the Jury is going to notice that.

@Vin53 @CookieCrisp @TrashCatJudge expresses scepticism as Trump lawyer seeks dismissal
Madeline Halpert
Reporting from court
Todd Blanche has been talking for several minutes now.
He says Donald Trump, former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker and Michael Cohen did not plan a "catch-and-kill scheme".
And he continues to object to the idea that Trump falsified business records with intent to commit another crime.
Lastly, he says, without Cohen, there is no case.
But, he says, there is no way the case should go to the jury relying on the testimony of Cohen.
"We put on irrefutable proof" that Cohen was inconsistent in his testimony, Blanche says.
Merchan appears skeptical.
“You said that his [Cohen's] lies are irrefutable. Do you think he’s going to fool 12 New Yorkers into this lie?” he asks.
Apparently Merchan is considering this.

If so, it would be a microcosm of the whole Trump presidency..

Not yet. In fact, I'm hearing complaints on 𝕏 claiming the judge is biased against Trump. So if we're hearing complaints from one side saying he's going to get off, and complaints from the other side saying he's being railroaded, then I'd say the judge is being fair.
Hey, @Strictgram. What is it you bring to this discussion?

@Strictgram That’s the best comeback I have ever heard from a MAGA sheep like you.
