The New York state judge overseeing Donald Trump’s criminal case tied to hush money payments denied the former president’s bid to have the judge recuse himself from the litigation.
Just want to make one thing clear, here… Trump’s lawyers were basically making the argument that it’s impossible for anyone but a Republican to be impartial. It’s absurd on the face of it, but be prepared to see the MAGA mob embrace the argument that the judge should have recused himself and been replaced with a Republican appointee, as if it’s prima facie obvious that no Democratic appointee could possibly oversee a fair trial.
Trump’s lawyers, and especially Trump, called his own 2016 election win “rigged”. He WON and still called it rigged. That’s how full of shit the guy is and proof that he’ll call anything rigged, biased, or whatever in order to look like a victim.
I think he called it rigged due to losing the popular vote. Despite the Electoral College who REALLY decides who wins, that wasn’t enough for him. He wanted a huge popular lead over Hilary.

Trump: “How can I get a fair trial from someone who doesn’t owe me a huge favor?”
So since it’s always projection with Trump, he thinks a republican judge wouldn’t be impartial.
Well, it’s probably true that on the face of it, the trump appointed judges can’t be impartial.
They’re just projecting more. As always
