They tried...and failed again in court. Hush money trial still on schedule for April 15. Trump lawyers tried to delay until SCOTUS ruled on Presidential immunity...on another of his criminal cases.
www.cbsnews.com/news /trump-judge-merchan -hush-money-trial-im munity/
 
Say what? What does POTUS immunity have to do with the Hush money case, which occurred BEFORE the 2016 election?
Regardless, the judge threw it out because the LAW states pretrial motions must be filed within 45 days of arraignment, which was last year.
But which of Trump's lawyers actually try to follow the laws that their client tries to circumvent at every chance?

Did anyone see this coming? Apparently taking the Trump Media Company public isn't helping his desperate need for more financial resources. finance.yahoo.com/ne ws/trump-media-stock -tanks-as-new-filing -reveals-heavy-

Talk about a hypocrite!
"Former President Donald Trump blasted Department of Justice (DOJ) special counsel Jack Smith on Thursday, calling him out for "attacking" Florida U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon.
 
"Deranged 'Special' Counsel Jack Smith, who has a long record of failure as a prosecutor, including a unanimous decision against him in the U.S. Supreme Court, should be sanctioned or censured for the way he is attacking a highly respected Judge, Aileen Cannon, who is presiding over his FAKE Documents Hoax case in Florida," the former president wrote in a post on his social media platform, Truth Social."

For the life of me, I don't understand...
All the Christians who love the guy who lied about having an affair with an adult film star.....
 
All the veterans who love the guy who bailed out of Vietnam...
 
All the rural folks who love the guy that for years lived in a golden tower in NYC, but now lives in a luxury resort in Florida.

What's more irritating is that one reason his lawyers are pushing for delays, is because of pretrial publicity. I haven't seen any extra reports from judges or prosecutors discussing a case, other than gag orders or arguing against delays. That leaves.....Trump himself for causing publicity over appeals and gag orders. Hypocrisy? Perhaps. Monday cannot get here soon enough.

Trump bumped from Bloomberg's list of billionaires as Truth Social stocks plummet

Former President Donald Trump has been bumped from Bloomberg's list of billionaires, according to new reports.
 
Trump's name did not appear Tuesday on the financial news site's daily ranking of the world's 500 richest people, based on net worth analyses of the billionaires' profiles and the day's trading.
 
USA Today, the first to spot Trump's absence, linked Trump's fall to the problematic public opening of the eponymous media company that parents Truth Social.
 
"Tuesday has been the stock's lowest trading day since Trump Media merged with the public shell company Digital World Acquisition Corp," the report notes.
 
"The price dip has wiped out billions of dollars from the company's market value."
 
USA Today put the value of Trump Media - of which the former president owns the majority stake of about 57 percent - at about $5 billion as of Monday evening.

Strike 3, YOU'RE OUT! Trump loses 3rd appeal in 3 days to delay trial. Lawyers claiming he needs to be out on the campaign trail, not a courtroom. Prejudicial media coverage cited as a reason. Trump's the one putting out publicity, not the DA or the judge. Judge cited again, that the time to ask for a delay was last year, not at the 11th hour.
