In reply to the discussion: SC Smith obviously knew that Cannon may be the judge [View all]yardwork
(69,128 posts)I've been reading all these threads about Cannon and I'm perplexed as to why folks are so upset. Indictments are made where crimes were committed. I read the indictment. It's clear that serious crimes were committed in Mar a Lago.
Ok, there's a biased judge in that district. Guess what, there are biased judges everywhere, especially since the big orange baby got four years to appoint them. Prosecutors deal with that.
This particular judge already tried something and got in trouble for it. Legal analysts are saying that the 11th Circuit Court (who intervened last time) will probably force her to recuse herself again. They're watching her like a hawk.
However, it's not even clear that she'll be assigned this case permanently. The justice system is slooooooow.
Worst, worst case: she gets the case, doesn't recuse, and oversees an eventual trial. Personally, I think a trial is years away because Trump's lawyers will delay and delay. But if it comes to trial, everything will happen in a glare of publicity.
I'm not worried about Cannon. I think more - and worse - indictments are coming. I don't know what will happen but Cannon's not the biggest thing right now.
