@GottaLaff

I understand that all three appeals have gone to different judges, so this is the third different appellate judge to reject Trump's arguments.

Trump only has 2 days left to file appeals, so will run out of time before NY runs out of appellate judges to deny his motions.

At this stage, his attorneys should focus on preparing to litigate the case, not futile gestures.

Because absent medical emergency or Trump going on the lam, his first criminal case starts on Monday.

@GottaLaff
According to Lisa Rubin on X (won't link to thread out of respect for Laffy), there are 21 appellate judges in that division.

And between this criminal trial and Trump's civil fraud trial, a total of 14 of them have now rejected his various claims for relief!

@GottaLaff Replying is easy! I love your posts more, as they initiate the threads, setting up the issues to spark conversations.

@CarlG @GottaLaff FFS… so there’s still a good chance there won’t be a trial after all….

GottaLaff OP , 2 months ago

@JeanPDeliet @CarlG That's not what the Legals said on the TV Machine last night. They said there would be one, it won't be stayed.

@GottaLaff it's Thursday and I predict several more desperate filings.

@GottaLaff this feels more like legal team getting in hours. Also that desperation comes out of them too, realizing, if they lose case before voting, it is finished and they not gonna be paid.

@GottaLaff @DemocracyMattersALot Pardon my words but #trump is trying to rape the law, the law says NO but he won’t take a NO because “if the laws says NO she means YES”. For me that’s is RAPE !!!!!

You would think an innocent person would be in a hurry to clear their name.

@GottaLaff Mr. trump, on what grounds would you have us delay this trial ? Well, it was drawn to my attention that the day it’s scheduled to start has a ‘y’ in it, and that so unfair.

When do they charge him for abuse of process?

GottaLaff OP , 2 months ago

@WendyMsGator It's entirely possible they could... but will they?

WendyMsGator , 2 months ago

@GottaLaff

You made me laugh. Of course they won't.

GottaLaff OP , 2 months ago

@WendyMsGator I was being rhetorical. But hey, there's always hope.

pixelpusher220 , 2 months ago

@GottaLaff It's almost like we need a sportsball type rule here.

N appeals but if you lose them, you stop getting appeals.

Ok, not American...but hey, neither is Trump!

GottaLaff OP , 2 months ago

@pixelpusher220 I keep telling people, if this were reversed and it were Biden, they'd be cheering the appeals

curtisysmith , 2 months ago

@GottaLaff I’d like to think not, but you are probably right. Everything is so tribal now. @pixelpusher220

pixelpusher220 , 2 months ago

@GottaLaff agreed. changes to things have to be weighed against "how would Trump use this".

Sometimes it will be necessary to risk, others not, and mostly we won't know till later 😬

Is there a delay that involves arrest and incarceration awaiting trial?
That's the only delay I'm interested in 😐

Meanwhile, they will say they are winning. Trump probably believes it.

@GottaLaff How many times can he file for the same thing? Is this like batters theoretically being able stop a game by hitting an unlimited number of fouls balls?

GottaLaff OP , 2 months ago

@JBShakerman He's filing with different justifications though. All are bogus, of course.

One day, a judge may slam him for frivolous motions and fine him
