Claiming that there is “no compelling reason for the extraordinary haste” with which Special Counsel Jack Smith wants to proceed with the unprecedented prosecution of a former President and leading Party candidate for nomination in an election less than 11 months away, Donald Trump’s lawyers argue that the Supreme Court should just wait in line to hear the nationally-critical case in a new filing about his DC federal prosecution for undermining the 2020 election.
After first claiming that the Special Counsel doesn’t have standing to request the Supreme Court expedite hearing the case–a simply laughable claim–and then claiming the Supreme Court can’t take the case before the lower courts rule, Trump attorneys amazingly claims, “the Special Counsel identifies no compelling reason for the extraordinary haste he proposes. Instead, he vaguely asserts that the “public interest” favors resolution on a dramatically accelerated timetable, to ensure that President Trump may be brought to trial in the next few months.”
