None of this is surprising or new. It’s just a description of the methods of delay. That’s literally the thesis of the article: Trump is trying to delay until after the election, and the government’s filings indicate they aren’t trying to fight that timeline, so Trump was successful.

It was already “jumped” to a friendly court (Cannon), which is why and how it was dismissed for such bizarre reasons. And it is the prosecution of a former president. It was always going to be appealed to SCOTUS. None of this is new. And none of that will matter if Trump is elected.

“Delay until after the election” has been Trump’s strategy for this case since it started.
