Earlier this month, attorneys for Trump asked U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan to hold Smith in contempt for filing motions ahead of deadlines.
The judge overseeing the federal election interference case against former President Donald Trump has rejected his request to hold special counsel Jack Smith and his office in contempt.
Earlier this month, attorneys for Trump asked U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan to hold Smith in contempt for filing motions while the case is stayed pending Trump’s appeal on presidential immunity grounds.
How dare the prosecution file motions BEFORE a deadline! What do they think they are?!?!? Professionals?!?!???!? I demand they be held in contemp your honor!
I mean, trumps lawyers have done things like forget to ask for a jury, fail to comply with discovery, leading to automatically losing the case, and make the same flawed argument half a dozen times.
Maybe their view is a bit skewed
His lawyers willingly work for him. With his track record of treatment of legal counsel, that really speaks for itself.
They can change him! You don’t know him like they do!
