Then have Judge Cannon remove or recuse herself.

[kraftwurx_Aviation]

Yep. His daughter is a political activist. The father is aware and democrat himself. He helped her starr the business....

When Trump says EVIDENCE... I always laugh my A$$ off!! 😂🤣😅

[jacobmuehlhausen]

Delay, delay, what a coward. Time to face the mess you created.

[peterpoprafsky]

The Judge is not on Trail you are Trump 😂

[copernicus]

Since when is it illegal to pay off your blackmailer? Since when is a non-disclosure agreement illegal? The whole case is bogus.

[debbienix]

The judges daughter would absolutely cause a bias. The problem with people today is that most people can’t handle the truth.

[michaelmeuser]

What a bunch of bull. Delay delay delay.

[jackfarrell]

The bigger question is why is Clarence Thomas not recusing himself. Thank you Fox News for telling us what to think.

[half-breed]

Poor Stinky is shorting a fuse as his trial approaches and he is fresh out of delay tactics. Watch out for flying ketchup 😁

[gilbertsuarez]

Stormy is going to testify what you guy so nervous!!!

[k.k]

Hey Trump, if you are innocent, then why not comply to a swift trial? Hm? Surely you could prove your innocence. Enough with the delay tactics, just get it over with. :)

[HZVV]

Trump tried this same exact thing with the same judge a year ago, and it didn't work. Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

FJB! - If he's Competent Charge Him for Insurrection!
If he's Incompetent, Impeach him and Charge him for Treason!

Judges usually recuse themselves for far less than this. Shows he and the system is crooked.

[ETraylor]

Even the appearance of impopriety requires recusal!

[CoolLava]

Really? And yet you embrace Cannon who you appointed and you see no conflict there? Hmmm. Selective sight? Nothing fair here.

[richardschumack]

The courts are supposed to remain unbiased in any case, and if that is not possible then it should be a mistrial.

[Gaber]

Yeah, and Judge Cannon has to wipe OrangeJuice from her mouth every morning. What's your point? 😉

[ThePiratemachine]

Don't blame him - Trump, I mean. This is absolutely outrageous. This is patently not a fair trial and that judge should have the self-respect and honesty to get off it quick. It doesn't matter who the defendant is. This is disgusting..
