But Trump was too dumb to play along. Garland should have realized that 6 months into the job, but he waited 2 years and then it was too late. Smith has done an admirable job, but the federal courts move so slow, and Trump seems to have allies on the bench at SCOTUS and SDFL, so these cases have almost no chance of reaching conclusion before the election (and probably ever, depending on how the election turns out). I think Biden really missed the boat in appointing Garland. A muscular AG would have treated the Insurrection as the serious crime that it was. Garland effectively helped the GOP sweep it under the rug. At the same time, I think a lot of blame actually rests with the FBI. The FBI is Trumpworld inside the deep state, and they have been covering for Trump or at least gold-bricking the investigations so that everything is done at a snail's pace. Three years+ after 1/6, the clueless FBI can't even figure out who left multiple explosive devices at DNC headquarters on 1/6 - something that occurred a stone's throw away from Chris Wray's office. That case stinks to high heaven like law enforcement giving a favored right-wing paramilitary a pass on an egregious crime. Or just pathetic incompetence. However, I don't actually think the FBI is *that* incompetent - they have an unexploded device planted in 2021 in the most camera-covered 10 square miles in the entire United States and they can't figure out who put it there? They were reconstructing the Unabomber's devices *after* they exploded and finding leads, but here they are just up against a wall and gave up? That never smelled right and still doesn't.

I understand that russian and chinese bots are here to stir shit. But if you are american why the hell do you willingly choose to ignore reality? Garland let the statute of limitations run out on Trump's obstruction of justice crimes listed in the Mueller report. That investigation is over and done. Garland just ignored Trump's crimes. The Michigan AG waited one year for Garland to do something and he didn't do shit. She had to charge them with state crimes before she ran out of time waiting for Garland who by the way hasn't charged a single fake elector to date. And even if he charges them tomorrow the chances of them being convicted before election day are zero. It has been more than a year since James referred Trump to DOJ for financial crimes. Not a single charge for Trump although he was found to commit fraud by judge Engoron three months ago. But as soon as republicans bitched about Hunter Biden the DOJ charged him.

They take their time building cases, and for something this high profile, they can't afford to shoot and miss. Everything has to be perfect and unimpeachable. I say this all the time, from my experience working with Federal prosecutors they are working at warp speed. For example, a former manager of mine got indicted and his crime/arrest was years prior and they only moved when the statue of limitations was coming up. Coming from New Jersey; Trump is also following the East Coast organized crime playbook and the prosecution is doing the same. Prosecute all the underlings first and then go after the Big Goldfish. I will say, not so much in Trump's ""defense""; but his entirely life has been one of of whinging, whining and pressuring people around him to bend/break the law, behave unethically, commit tax fraud, etc. This sort of behavior is by nature difficult to prosecute in any scenario.",3,2024-01-19 23:43:27 kio0xo7,19ap7mi,Attorney General Merrick Garland says there should be ‘speedy trial’ of Trump as 2024 election looms,I have no idea where that came from lol,3,2024-01-19 23:54:17 kiobbkl,19ap7mi,Attorney General Merrick Garland says there should be ‘speedy trial’ of Trump as 2024 election looms,AutoCorrect happens to the best of us.,3,2024-01-20 01:03:01 kimom6d,19ap7mi,Attorney General Merrick Garland says there should be ‘speedy trial’ of Trump as 2024 election looms,"Just so everyone is aware Misdemeanors must be charged within 3 years and Felonies have no time limit for charges in Washington, District of Columbia.",2,2024-01-19 19:11:45 kin0tuy,19ap7mi,Attorney General Merrick Garland says there should be ‘speedy trial’ of Trump as 2024 election looms,"What blows my mind is that with every single one of these trials that Trump is in, he's being allowed to delay, delay, delay with no repercussions.
