incredz we should all be discussing ( seriously even tho this is AB) whether a head of state can pardon himself...
let alone the greatest state on earth.... and once we looked on american democracy as a beacon and not a laughing stock.
Trump is saying "bring it on!" - but it may not draw in the floating voters he needs

// They've tried by hook or by crook for years to nail him with something. //
I wonder if this line of reasoning ever goes as far as reading into what the "something" is.
It's complicated law, for natural reasons the prosecutors will want the evidence to be damning and for the charges to stick (hence the length of time taken to bring many of these); and, since Presidents are at least functionally (and probably also actually) immune from criminal prosecution, then naturally there was a rather large four-year pause button on any of this.
Also many's the time Trump's been able to settle before things got as far as a criminal case when they arguably should have (eg his "Trump University" fraud).
Put simply, he's rich and powerful, and rich and powerful people are hard to nail even when the charges would otherwise been an open-and-shut case. The guy tried to rig the election in multiple ways.

Possibly also that, too. As it is, another reason for the delay is that they've already been trying such tactics -- change judge, change location, more time to prepare a defence etc etc (the last is superficially reasonable, but if it's used to keep delaying even the start of a trial then at some point it's not legitimate).

This indictment has to be the strongest one...surely? I mean, have you heard the call to the Governor of Georgia? It sounds like a slam dunk. Trump is literally trying to coerce the Governor to 'find' 11,000 votes.
This is hugely more serious than the documents he took out of the White House.
This is a direct attack on democracy!
