Trump Gets Massive Court Victory - Judge Deals Blow To Jack Smith

Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and former President Donald

Trump just got very, very welcome news from Judge Eileen Cannon, the judge in his classified

documents case, federal case, and he's smiling right now, huge, or should I say huge. Before we

get started, please make sure you like, comment, share and subscribe. Those little things really

help us out and they help our channel continue to grow. Look, it's no secret, former President

and his team, they want to postpone these trials till after the election for a variety of reasons

many of which are reasonable. His schedule and they want to look into things like presidential

immunity and all these other issues. Well, it's kind of hard to have a trial starting in, let's

say May, when this one is supposed to start, when you're doing all that in the middle of a presidential

campaign. Come on. Well, now they got word or an inkling from Judge Eileen Cannon that this might

get pushed back till after the election, which is exactly what the former president wanted

Let's take a look. Overseeing the case of Trump's mishandling of classified documents

is signaling that she may push things off. That trial is currently scheduled for late May and

at a hearing yesterday in Florida, the judge talked about her concerns over that timing. CNN's

Caitlin Polanski is in Florida following all of this. Caitlin, it's all about the calendar

What is the judge signaling here and how is Donald Trump's team responding

Well, Kate, Donald Trump's team is all in on trying to get both of his federal trials

moved off of the calendar before the presidential election of next November. And yesterday they were

here in Florida arguing in that documents case about the handling of Mar-a-Lago just behind me

What happened with the documents there? He's supposed to go to trial on that in May, but they

said to the judge, he's so busy and we're so busy on preparing not just for that trial, but his other

federal trial in Washington, D.C., around what happened after the election, January 6th, his

attempts to hold on to the presidency, that how could we possibly go to trial in May? And Judge

Eileen Cannon here in Florida, she didn't say exactly what she's going to do if she's going to

keep that date on the calendar for the May trial in the Mar-a-Lago documents case, but she indicated

that she totally understands where they're coming from. She even said, I'm having a hard time

seeing how this work can be accomplished realistically in this period of time, the period

of time where they're going to be preparing for trial as a defense team. So we are waiting to see

whether Eileen Cannon, the judge here, is going to move that trial date in the documents case

But then Donald Trump's team in just hours after that hearing, they went to the judge in D.C.

Judge Tanya Chutkin, over the January 6th, 2020 election case that he faces, a trial that's set

to start in the beginning of May. They asked her to put the entire case on hold. And so because

they have things on the table around presidential immunity, they want the judge to look at whether

Donald Trump is immune from that case. Prosecutors hit back pretty quickly, telling Judge Cannon here

in Florida, look what they're doing. They're trying to manipulate the court. So we just have to watch

to see how these judges are going to respond now. Great to see you, Kaitlin. Thank you so much

Yeah, Kaitlin Polz, about to go on a three-hour tour on Gilligan. If she does this, to me, this is the correct move. This is the correct decision

He needs a fair chance to defend himself. He cannot get that chance during the presidential

election. You see people attacking him left, right, and center. He's got gag orders on him

So he can't even respond to a lot of these people. It's ridiculous. It's ridiculous

Everybody is entitled to a right of defense in any trial. The former president has the same

rights as any one of us. They say nobody's above the law, but nobody's below it either

Just because you dislike somebody doesn't mean the law doesn't apply to them

And it doesn't mean the protections afforded to other defendants are not afforded to them

That's what a lot of people are forgetting here. I think Judge Eileen Cannon is going to make the correct decision. And you know, the DC judge, she may make that decision too

She hasn't been very friendly to Trump, but this is solid reasoning

So we got to see what she says. Guys, I want your comments on this. Let me know what you think about

it. Should the case be postponed? Is Trump being treated unfairly? I want to know what you think

Also, please remember to like, comment, share, and subscribe. It really helps us out

I'm Carmine Sabia. This is Explain America. We love you guys. God bless you. Take care, everybody

you
