100%... but... I've also heard some legal experts speculating that even with the delays, Trump could be starting the court process in the Fall, keeping him in court right at the run-up to the election. Pure speculation, but I like the spiciness.

I read the judge would give them 90 days post ruling before the trial which assuming we get a ruling this week meant the trial could start early October.

We aren’t getting a ruling this week.

Nope, I read this morning that Roberts announced they're coming back into session this week, when this session is supposed to end. They'll drag this out as long as they can to fellate Trump. The silver lining is that it shows even the unplugged from politics type how corrupt and dangerous SCROTUS is now.
