lol, twenty fucking twenty four. I know the court system can be a little slow, but this is ridiculous. And I’m not sure how much faith I have that it won’t just get delayed. Trump has constantly gotten away with shit for too long and continues to do so.

Decorum? You seem to be conflating whatever it is Jim Jordan does with the actual state and federal charges Trump’s currently facing under indictment.

…this is just going to drag on until he eventually succumbs to his decades-in-the-making suicide by cheeseburger.

Maybe we’ll get lucky and see some vigilante justice, but I’m not holding my breath for that, either.

He has the New York State trial in March of 24. That trial isn’t as delayable as the documents case.

His impending cases for January 6th and racketeering in GA aren’t as delayable either.

If he does manage to stay out of jail before the presidential election, everyone who opposes him will have to make it their mission to help campaign against him.

J6 with a DC circuit that is less likely to put up with his delaying tactics and shenanigans in general.
