Trump’s Gonna Be So Pissed At His Lawyers

He can raise the issue on appeal after the trial, as his lawyers preserved their objections today in court. But he can’t make an appeal before trial (an interlocutory appeal) on the issue.

Trial courts have discretion over handling their docket, which can be reviewed for abuse of discretion, but only after a final judgment.

They might want to remove the ketchup at Bedminster. And Chutkan will probably store this for use in moving the trial earlier, if he keeps shit-talking her (i.e., disparaging the legitimacy of the court and the process) in social media.

She’ll give him enough rope that, if she does it, he’ll have a hard time claiming denial of due process.

And by the way: even talking to the lawyers about this shit is going to mean legal fees he needs more money for. He really has no idea what a money pit four criminal trials are going to be.
