I think her game plan is clear. Avoid any decisions that Smith can appeal to the 11th Circuit, start the trial after the election and once the prosecution has presented its case, entertain the almost-certain defense motion to dismiss the charges based on the Presidential Records Act and decide to do just that. Since double jeopardy would apply, there is no way the prosecution can appeal, so she can't be reversed. Adjudicated Sexual Assailant P1135809 walks on the most open-and-shut of the criminal cases against him because the judge is auditioning to replace Clarence Thomas on SCOTUS if P1135809 wins the election and Thomas drops dead shortly thereafter.
I wonder who Cannon is getting legal advice from for her protect-Trump-and-her-career actions. I imagine several Trump cult lawyers are guiding her. And I wonder who's paying them. If Trump wins, he'll make a place for her on SCOTUS. He'll owe her big time.
It seems more and more obvious that while she may be really really dumb, someone probably is feeding ideas and docs to her. Wouldn't be a surprise given the actors on one side of the drama. But the odor of incompetence pervades the room.......
When has Drumpf ever rewarded someone that he owes? In the unlikely even he gets elected he'll kick her to the curb like anyone else who has ever helped him and find someone who he can leverage.

You're exactly right. Silly me.
You really have his number, Tom.
Probably!!
Yep, but the lonely always have hope. Fools that they are.
Stormy got a few bucks...
That would be The Federalist Society and Leonard Leo.
Totally!
Thomas oversees that area for the SCOTUS.
Yep, you and lots of the rest of us see that quite clearly.
My understanding is the 32 counts apply to specific documents (I’m unsure how many).
If dismissed, can DOJ bring another case based on other docs, and on grounds other than the Espionage Act?
The Horror!!!
