The Upside Of Trump’s Pre-Trial Appealpalooza

I’ll make this short, I promise. But as I was listening to Lawrence O’Donnell tonight talking about Traitor Tot, I realized just how truly incompetent and pathetic Trump’s paid legal bottom feeders really are.

You all know that since the start of the Trump trial circuses, I have been on my high horse. No man is above the law. Every defendant has equal rights under the law. What unutterable bullsh*t. From day one Traitor Tot has been treated with special care and cuddling. Normally an initial appearance before a judge or magistrate is purely for the purpose of recording a defendant’s plea. The bail hearing takes place 12-36 hours later, and the defendant is locked up until that hearing. But Traitor Tot has gotten bail on the spot every time.

But by far the largest bur under my saddle has been the Traitor Tot teams most despicable abuse of the appeal. Normally most judges, local, county, state, federal, sh*t, even Shire Reeves have almost dictatorial control over their courtroom. It’s the judge who determines the court schedule, the hearings, an d what evidence and testimony can be heard in the courtroom. And if the defense doesn’t loke it? Then they can always appeal after the trial of the defendant is convicted.

And instead, because of his special status as a former President, his legal beagles have taken to appealing every pre-trial decision Judge Chutkan makes to the appellate court. I can’t tell you how unprecedented this is. Appeals are filed after the conviction, not before. But they’re letting their special little snowflake get away with it.

Which, mark my words, is going to cost El Pendejo Presidente. On both sides. For starters, both the federal appellate courts as well as the Supreme Court are ready for Trump’s bullsh*t. Every appeal that His Lowness has filed so far has been dispatched with extreme expedience by the courts, and they’ll continue to help assure that Trump stands trial on at least one charge before election day.

But here’s what warms the heartles of my cock warms the cockles of my heart. Trump is a legal imbecile. Due to political expediency, Trump is hell bent for leather to delay the start of his trial(s) for as long as possible. But the legal system is bound and determined to hold The Mango Messiah responsible before election day. Which means, if Trump’s legal problems were a porn flick? Then Trump is blowing his wad during the coming attractions.

The orange sh*tgibbon is busy filing every appeal he can think of before trial to delay the trial. And the appellate courts are busy dispatching with them in near record time. Which asks a simple question.

What happens after Trump gets convicted? Normally, it’s post conviction when the defense starts spouting off the nyriad procedural and legal sins of the trial judge that robbed their client of a fair trial. But Trump’s legal poltroons are adjudicating all of those issues now!

Nobody with 12 functioning brain cells is going to accuse Special Counsel Jack Smith of not having a top flight legal team working to send Trump to durance vile. And as such, it is highly unlikely that a thoroughly professional crew like that will create many opportunities for the defense to appeal on conviction, nor will Judge Chutkan.

If Trump has already burned all of his best time delaying appeals before trial, what’s left for him to crybaby about after conviction. The normal post conviction appeals process for famous defendants takes 18-24 months. But if there’s nothing left to appeal but a handful of procedural matters, those could be completed in 8-12 months.

Trump is desperately trying to delay any criminal trials until after the 2024 election, where if he’s reelected, he can make this all go away. But Trump is a deeply flawed candidate, and if he loses in November, and he is convicted before trial, then he just threw away 18-37 months appellate time before he will be required to report to federal prison. Marry in haste. Repent in leisure.

I thank you for the privilege of your time.
