Judge sets Trump trial date

Federal judge Tanya Chutkan ruled that the federal criminal trial against former President Donald Trump over his efforts to overturn the 2020 election will begin March 4, 2024, a day before the Super Tuesday primaries.

Criminals should not be allowed to run for office. He has been convicted many times

[jvcuhzq]

Yeah, trump should already be incarcerated pending trial.

[davidcobb]

Trump should be disqualified from running for President...

[andreahughes]

March 5 is my birthday. Having the trial start on March 4th is the best present ever.

[elizabethcsanki]

What offends me is that he's even running, after being found guilty of sexual assault. It should be sickening to any woman contemplating even voting for this sex offender. Even though it was a civil trial and not a criminal one.

Lock him up and throw away the key. He thinks he is untouchable with his crimes. I can’t stand the cocky pathological liar.

Remember, if it walks like a skunk, talks like a skunk, and smells like a skunk, you are talking Donald Skunk.

As a Republican, I hope it’s also televised. No matter what side you’re on, it’s a must for the public to know. If we could see Johnny Depp and OJ, we must be able to see this.

About Time his co-conspirators are pleading guilty in Georgia RICO case.

I pray and hope Governor Newsom, please take him out of the California ballots .
Either way, my vote will never be for no Republicans.

TRUMP DOESNT GET TO TELL THE JUDGE WHEN HE IS AVAILABLE

[tomw.]

This means Donnie will be in a Georgia State Prison before the first general election vote is cast. He's done for.

[pjrazvoza]

Justice waits for no one, not even you Donnie!

[allyoopdan]

I hope it'll be televised. I hope cameras are allowed in federal hearings.

[marthell]

The “Lock her up!” crowd is having a rough time these days. 😂

[larry-kpsp]

It is a legal issue. It has nothing to do with politics. Criminals running for political office is not a get out of jail free card.

[stephennewton]

Scheduling this between all the other court appearances must be challenging.

Defendant Trump is toast. 😂

[bbot]

The legal system doesn't care about what you do in a job or personal life. It's goal is to carry out justice and bring those who break the law to accountability. Being someone in a political position should not give them immunity or special treatment for breaking the law. Trump broke the law and will now have to live with the consequences of doing so. NOBODY IS ABOVE THE LAW!!!

[gorporpio]

Lock in the trial date then lock up the cell with him in it.

[michaelburns]

Lock Trump up now, top priority!!! Maga!
