Former federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann thinks Trump-appointed U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon is using a highly unlikely trial date as a “blocker” to limit when other cases can go to trial.
MSNBC anchor Alex Wagner on Wednesday questioned why Cannon, who is overseeing Trump’s classified documents case, hasn’t moved the scheduled May 20 trial date, which is unlikely given the current pre-trial schedule, since the judge in Trump’s D.C. election subversion case may set a trial for May or June.
