Judge Cannon Sets Site of Trial Deep in Trump Country
The plot of this movie is way too improbable
Ya know, if the Trump documents case were a made-for-TV movie, it would be a flop. The plot is just too improbable.
Think about it. An American president leaves office with dozens of boxes of government documents including highly classified secrets, refuses to return them when asked nicely and even when subpoenaed. Then the FBI conducts a search of his home and retrieves more classified documents after he claims he has returned everything.
While the DOJ is developing a case against him, he does multiple interviews claiming that the documents belong to him, that he is entitled to them, that he intended to return them but needed some more time, his excuse seems to change daily.
Who came up with this stuff? Fire that writer!
And then, in the biggest plot twist ever, the judge appointed to hear the case turns out to be a judge that he appointed while he was president and who has ruled in his favor in the past.
Would you believe this as the plot of a movie? I wouldn’t.
Judge Aileen Cannon is gonna take this as far as she possibly can to make sure that Trump does not ever suffer any consequences…
