I reject the idea that because the defendant could prevail, it justifies the prosecution playing games with the timeline of the case in an attempt to harm the defendant outside of the courtroom.

But your assumption is this is intended to "harm the defendant outside of the courtroom". Of course you'd reject a reality where that's proven to be false

The DOJ sat on this for 3 years in order to time it with the election. And, now that it looks like there won't be time prior to the election, they want to play games with the timeline again.

So you'd rather delay this and have Trump prosecuted (and potentially jailed) while President?

That's correct.

I'm not rejecting a reality. I'm rejecting the idea that pushing the timeline forward through extreme measures in order to ensure the defendant is completely occupied during the election cycle is justified.

Your argument is...yeah, but he might win.

Using the court system to impact the presidential election is not only out of line, it's illegal.

At this point, as late as it is, I'd certainly prefer to wait until after the election.
