Trump's attorney said it was "unfathomable" that Trump would be ready to balance his legal obligations with his campaigning.

I can't believe this stuff is even allowed in open court. Campaigning isn't even a job. It's a 100% optional thing somebody chooses to do in running for elected office. It can be stopped at any moment for any reason, completely and willingly.

A court date for multiple felonies is an obligation. It's much higher priority. There's no comparison.

If it is a fair excuse, then I guess we should all be campaigning.

Sorry boss, it's unfathomable to work today because I need to campaign. Sorry your honor, jury duty is unfathomable because I'm working the crowds. Sorry IRS, can't file my taxes this year because I'm busy raising money on social media.
