Trump has no legal defense for the crimes he committed so he has another strategy:

1. Delay all of the prosecutions which hurts prosecutors and strengthens his case.
2. He needs the delay, time, to use his strategy of threats and intimidation.
Threats against the prosecutors, judges, witnesses, jury pool. Make all of those people understand that if they go after Trump he will go after them. he actually said that.

Trump wants people to fear for their lives. When Mitt Romney voted to indict Trump in the Senate he was forced to spend 5,000 dollars per week on security. Trump wants to poison the jury pool, make them fearful for their lives. he wants to poison the reporters from the MSM, make them fearful for their lives. It may just work.
3. Members of Congress who are complicit in the ongoing insurrection, like Scott Perry, appear to be immune from prosecution, they can continue to bring down our institutions withoit consequences.

3. Trump with his attacks on judges, prosecutors, public officials, law enforcement, the FBI, wants to create distrust in our institutions, wants people, the jury pool, to believe that our democratic institutions are corrupt, wants people to believe in the deep state.

Time mattered in investigating and prosecuting Trump, waiting a year and a half gave Trump the opportunity for his defense

Jack Smith is working to make up for lost time, we may have a Trump trial before the election, maybe.

This is a dupe of a post posted yesterday.
