However, a trial will not be possible before his November #election matchup against MVP #Harris …because whatever the judge decides is expected to wind up back before #SCOTUS next year.

“There’s no point in haste now, because there’s no way to do the #trial now before the #election,” fmr federal prosecutor & George Washington University #law professor Randall Eliason said. If #Trump wins in Nov & returns to the White House in Jan, his #DOJ would be expected to drop the case, & he could not be prosecuted while in office anyway.
“If he loses, there will be plenty of time to do a trial next year & get all the issues right,” Eliason said.
