    So, armchair pundits…what are your thoughts on the fact they’re trying to get this moved to a federal court?

      Fundamental Trump legal strategy: sue over everything, appeal when you lose, hope the other side runs out of time, money, or patience. Sue over the evidence in the indictment. Sue over the venue. Sue over the prosecutor. Sue over the trial date. Sue over the jury. Sue over the courtroom lights…

        Funny how you haven’t heard republicans screaming “StAteS RigHTS!!!” in a while.

        Somehow those rights were extremely important when it came to forcing women to give birth.

      From what I heard a commentator say on TV last night, the move to federal court would be more so that the trail wouldn’t be televised. The case would still be under Georgia law and it being tried in Federal court wouldn’t change the fact that it wouldn’t be pardonable by the governor or president.
