With Trump looking more and more like he is the presumptive Republican nominee in the 2024 presidential race, the Left has begun to melt down in greater numbers.
Rather than facing the uncertainty of running someone against Trump, they want to jail him.
This from westernjournal.com.
If they can’t jail him, they at least want to keep him off the campaign trail and label him a criminal by keeping him in court and draining his funds.
On Sunday, Jen Paski took up the progressive bullhorn at MSNBC to ask legal analysts Neal Katyal and Andrew Weissman if Trump’s trial could:
[S]tart in June, July and still be concluded before the election.
According to Fox News:
The topic at hand: the delay in Trump’s trial related to the 2020 election interference investigation.
Katyal cut right to the chase and let the rabid cat out of the bag:
In the case of this gravity, it should be moving more quickly.
And so, to use your phrase, Jen, at the beginning of this show, I am officially now at the freakout stage.
I resisted that for a long time, but we are now at the point.
Psaki pointed out:
You don’t typically freak out. [And] So that’s important.
When it comes to the subject of Trump, freaking out is a sure symptom of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
Katyal continued:
I think we’re now at the point, to use a different legal phrase, justice delayed is justice denied.
I mean, I can’t imagine a more compelling need for speed than the idea that American citizens deserve to know before the election whether a candidate for office is a felon and an insurrectionist.
Obviously, (wishful thinking) Katyal thinks this is an “easy case.” He claimed constitutional law scholars unanimously believe Trump does not have presidential immunity in the case.
Katyal fretted:
And Judge Chutkan set a fast schedule here. And I have no idea what the Court of Appeals is doing right now.
But I can tell you that I’m really worried that this delay is going to put the trial past June. It’s possible that Trump will try and go to the Supreme Court after he loses on the Court of Appeals. That can take months. This is a real problem.
Translation:
The court date will be after the 2024 presidential election. The progressive machine won’t be able to flood the media with their spin on the trial, and Trump will be out on the campaign trail in the meantime. A nightmare on Progressive Street. Time to freak out.
At this point in the game, Special Counsel Jack Smith’s trial for the alleged 2020 election interference investigation against Trump has been delayed indefinitely. Federal Judge Tanya Chutkan vacated the initial March 4 trial date last week. She said the court will:
[S]et a new schedule if and when the mandate is returned.
According to ABC News:
[Tuesday] the appeals court did deny Trump’s immunity claims, The Supreme Court will be asked to review the issue.
Whatever happens, Katyal’s reaction to the delay is telling. The Left is desperate. They don’t want Biden or anyone else to face Trump in the 2024 election.
The plan isn’t going as smoothly as they would like, and—in the end—it’s doomed.
According to Politico:
Even if the trial does take place before the election and Trump is convicted and put in jail, he can still run for president.
The Dems are going to have to face Trump. When they do, they want the most uneven playing field they can get.
Could Trump win re-election from a jail cell and then pardon himself? Conservatism will accept him that way and liberalism will further melt down, create further violence.
Final thoughts: Whatever comes to pass, We the People must anticipate the full gambit of worst-case scenarios. There are several excellent apocalyptic novels online or on the shelves that will prove to be educational reading.
