Voters should know his sentence before voting it may make a difference . This delay is just more election fraud

If this had been a slap on the wrist, Marchan would likely have just held the hearing and gotten it over with. He didn't. Win or lose, Trump is going to serve some time in prison. It may very well in fact give those wealthy benefactors for Trump who are getting coldfeet but don't want the Democrats to win an opportunity to press for a 25 IV clause, led by Vance, who then may very well take his sweet time about issuing a pardon once he becomes acting president.

Followed closely behind by his theft of boxes of classified documents which clearly jeopardized our national security and that of our allies. He certainly deserves prison time, his January 6th insurrectionists have served time for less, so what does it take??
