The special counsel leading both the classified documents probe and the Jan. 6 election interference investigation says that former President Donald Trump is trying to delay both trials “at any cost,” after Trump’s attorneys filed a motion for a stay in the Jan. 6 case.

Attorneys for Trump on Wednesday asked the judge overseeing his federal election interference case to delay all proceedings in the case pending a resolution of their motion to dismiss the case on immunity grounds.

“President Trump respectfully requests that the Court stay all proceedings in this case pending resolution of his Immunity Motion,” Trump’s lawyers said in a public court filing.

    Or he wants to delay things until after the election in hopes that he will get into office again and attempt to pardon all his crimes.

      Oh, I know. It’s blatantly obvious why he wants to delay. Can’t wait for this family to lose everything.
