• The trial date in the federal election subversion case against former President Donald Trump has been postponed due to ongoing appeals about presidential power.
  • Trump’s team is seeking further delays and focusing on the fact that a new trial date has not yet been set.
  • A ruling in favor of prosecutors that allows the case to proceed is expected to be appealed, resulting in additional delays.

    The thing is, they need to have a trial date that everyone that has to be there can be there. Having it on the calendar early means that everyone knows when they need to be available and can clear their calendars, and not having a replacement date increases the risk of calendar conflicts (and delays) when they try to reschedule.
