      This. Jack Smith hasn’t been able to nail her on any of her antics thus far, as they’ve been plausibly deniable, but her specious reasoning for the dismissal is a prime target for reversal by the 11th Circuit. She’s so bad at her job, she can’t even stall properly.

      If Smith doesn’t go to the 11th Circuit, then he was a terrible choice to begin with, and he was never going to win anything.

        The question now might be whether he appeals to the 11th Circuit Court or straight to the Supreme Court. I fear either way may be too slow to get anywhere before November.

          I doubt this will run its course before November, but if it can be a drain on his sanity and coffers, I’d say it’s still in the public interest to keep it going. As someone who listens to Knowledge Fight often, this kind of stuff gets under their skin and derails their ability to be effective at messaging.

          Ultimately, it’s in the public interest to keep going, if only because it’s still a crime that deserves to be tried on the real possibility that he loses in November.

            Agreed. It’s all very disgusting but no reason for despair, just continued fight.

      True, but it will all take so long that the case still won’t get anywhere before the election. In a way this might even have been the judge’s ultimate delay tactic, capping off the slow-walk that she already perpetrated.

        It’ll put more pressure on Trump’s system so I can’t complain. Its obv bullshit but it gets the rubes’ hopes up so it all balances out. I don’t buy his assassination attempt has changed anything

      and she doesn’t get to rule on a lot of the key decisions she had been dragging her feet on, so when she is replaced that judge will not have to inherit her bullshit decisions on important aspects of the case.
