Florida District Judge Aileen Cannon on Friday set the trial date in the classified documents case against former President Trump for May 20, 2024, per a court filing.

  • I dunno I still see this helping Democrats in the end. R will give him the nomination with all his fans proclaiming with great sureness that a presently campaigning former president who is trying to be re-elected cannot be convicted, then BOOM he gets convicted <6 months prior to the election. Then what?

      My thoughts exactly.

      @pelespirit@sh.itjust.works mentioned that there are behind-the-scenes machinations to disrupt the process, and that’s a very valid concern, but I don’t see how it could be close enough to make a difference though if Trump is convicted of any charges that have been brought.

      I’ve been wrong before though.
