A primary aim for Trump’s legal team, according to people familiar with the strategy, is to put the judge in DC overseeing the 2020 federal election obstruction case, Tanya Chutkan, in a position where she can’t start a trial before Election Day

    This is just ragebait. Trump’s legal team is about as competent as a bucket of dirt. The judges aren’t stupid, excepting Canon, and she’s in hot water as it is with how she’s running her courtroom.

    CNN’s owners are all-in trying to get Trump reelected, so take anything they put out this year as in service of that goal. This article reads like someone trying to make Trump look stronger than he is, rather than a sniveling coward, backed into a corner, trying anything and everything to delay.

      Trump’s legal team in the civil cases is pathetic. The lawyers in the DC case are relatively competent (eg they have successfully gotten the supreme Court to halt the case by squatting on the immunity appeal).

      Crooked judges gonna crook.
