Thank you for understanding the importance of TIME. Thank you for stopping the endless Trump appeals that took forever going clear up to the Supreme Court. Trump was smart to use attorneys to commit his crimes but Smith pierced Trump's attorney-client privilege by taking evidence of criminal activity to a judge using the crime/fraud exception which saved all of the time going to the SC.
One big reason that Smith is having the trial in Florida is because of TIME. There would be several appeals if Smith held the trial in DC which would take TIME.
I hope that Smith can get a trial scheduled before the election so that the American people can see what kind of person Donald Trump is.
Fantastic job Jack Smith.
