    100 bucks says they deny his appeal and what he says comes true. 100% like Trump and co want and all the GOP. These whole things a joke.

      They’ve already overturned her twice. They know she’s an incompetent hack & beholden to Trump.

      I said it yesterday, she wants to be removed at a late enough stage of the trial that it will take another judge past the election to get up to speed on the case.

        It’s important to note too that the ones overturning her were appointed by conservative presidents. It’s that blatantly bad.

        Why do people keep calling her incompetent? As far as I can tell, she’s been doing her job – being a blatantly corrupt ally of Trump – perfectly.

        What opportunity to skew the trial in Trump’s favor has she not taken advantage of? 'Cause that’s the true measure of her being incompetent.

          Yeah, this seems more on the order of weaponized incompetence, it’s giving the appearance of incompetence for a specific purpose so she can try to avoid claims of corruption or bias. Otherwise, she’s doing the job she was put in there to do, that’s why Trump and the GOP were so hot on getting all those Judges appointed.

        I agree 100%. Whatever happens, it’s a win for Cannon – She gets removed which gives her an excuse to use to the maga-cult she fears, or she stays on and can easily end the case for her cheeto-lord.

      You know a whole bunch of Trump people are in prison right and they’ve already been working on seizing his assets in increments of $100 million

      I’m as jaded as anyone about the leniency the justice system keeps showing to Trump, but it’s not like everything has been going exactly his way

          100% agreed

          Everyone’s treating it like business as usual. The third floor of the building is engulfed in flames, and the manager on duty is saying “Well we need to finish the staff meeting, dealing with the fire is on the agenda yes, but we have other business to take care of also.”

          Anyone dealing with anything Trump related should have 24/7 security from the Justice Dept, and everything else on their plate they should get a pass on. If some drug dealers they were also trying a case for need to wait, that’s okay.

        It’s not as though his peons getting locked up means fuck about dick to him. They were always cannon fodder. They served their purpose.
