Yeah I think Trump is doomed. I don't think the SCOTUS will touch such a toxic decision with a ten foot pole.
Of course this is just a stupid delay tactic by his defense attorneys.
I do think the current judge can simply refuse to wait. I don't know if they will or not. The SCOTUS can also simply refuse to make any ruling and just challenge the defense to appeal the case up to them after the current judge rules.
Of course this is just a stupid delay tactic by his defense attorneys.
Jack Smith is the prosecutor, not a defense attorney. With that being said, I think you're accidentally right. I don't think Smith would push so hard for SCotUS to rule if he thought they were going to rule against him.
I am not sure about Smith's motivation being about how they will rule but rather because that is where it will end up one way or the other. This just gets it there faster, and time is of the essence.
Kind of trumped Trump
