He&#8217;s lashing out at his perceived persecutors, especially the special counsel, Jack Smith, who Trump calls a <em>&#8220;deranged&#8221; &#8220;thug&#8221;<\/em> bent on destroying his aspirations to become America&#8217;s first dictator.<\/p>\n<p><strong>RELATED: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=57349\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Says \u2018Deranged\u2019 Special Counsel Staged Photo of Trump with Suspected Obama Stalker<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On Monday evening, at the very last moment, Trump finally <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/2023\/07\/11\/trump-classified-documents-trial-date-2024-00105565\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">responded<\/a><\/strong> to the special counsel&#8217;s motion to move his trial date to December 11. That&#8217;s four months later than the judge originally scheduled it. But that still isn&#8217;t far off enough for Trump. In response, Trump didn&#8217;t actually suggest an alternate date. He asked that no date whatsoever be chosen. He wants the trial delayed indefinitely. But if a date is set, it should be after the 2024 election, a year and a half away. And his reasons are downright laughable. Trump&#8217;s filing says that he can&#8217;t possibly defend himself properly in December because&#8230;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>He&#8217;s too busy with other criminal and civil trials.<\/li>\n<li>He&#8217;s too busy running for president.<\/li>\n<li>He says that &#8220;There is no ongoing threat to national security interests nor any concern regarding continued criminal activity.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>He says that he can\u2019t seat an impartial jury in the midst of a presidential election.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What a brilliant legal maneuver. Trump is using the fact that he&#8217;s such a prolific criminal that his logjam of trials have to be spaced out for many months to avoid colliding with one another. If this works it might inspire other defendants to give it shot. For instance, a murder could kill four or five more people so that his pending trials would have to be postponed for months or years.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Trump thinks his candidacy for the Republican nomination for president suffices as a delaying tactic. This strategy might help the aforementioned murderer as well. He would just need file papers to join the GOP campaign and &#8211; voila &#8211; his trial date is shelved indefinitely. And as an added bonus, he&#8217;d fit right in with the Republican candidate roster.<\/p>\n<p>What&#8217;s more, Trump is claiming that his trial can be waived off because he allegedly doesn&#8217;t represent any <em>&#8220;ongoing threat to national security.&#8221;<\/em> Never mind that he may still have more classified documents at his other resorts and villas, and his daily tirades that smear prosecutors, judges, and political foes, put all of their lives in jeopardy. His very campaign is itself a threat&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE THIS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=56236\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Trump Post Urges His Cult Followers to Take Up Arms and \u2018Physically Fight\u2019 for the Presidency<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Finally, Trump is pretending to be concerned that it would be impossible to find impartial jurors while an election is in progress. First of all, what is known as the <em>&#8220;60-day rule&#8221;<\/em> is a Justice Department policy (not a law) that seeks to avoid any legal proceedings within 60 days of an election so as not to influence the voting. Trump is absurdly stretching that out to a year and a half.<\/p>\n<p>More to the point, there is no logical reason why it would it be any more difficult to seat a jury now than it would be in 2025. What Trump is really interested in is the prospect that he, or another Republican, would be elected in 2024, and his case would be dropped or he would be pardoned. In other words, he&#8217;s hoping for sanctuary, not acquittal. He knows that he&#8217;s guilty and there&#8217;s mountains of evidence to prove it. He also knows that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=57338\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">most Americans &#8211;  including 25% of Republicans &#8211; believe that he&#8217;s guilty<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SEE ALSO: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newscorpse.com\/ncWP\/?p=57206\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Scared and Desperate Trump Begs Congress to Save Him From the Meanies Prosecuting His Crimes<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Under the circumstances, there are no rational reasons to delay Trump&#8217;s trial. And clearly, Trump and his attorneys have pitifully failed to articulate any. To his advantage, the judge assigned to the case, Aileen Cannon, is a Trump flunky who could just put off the trial because she feels like it. But anyone paying attention to the law would seek a speedy trial. In fact, anyone paying attention to Trump would argue that he shouldn&#8217;t even have the right to run.
