Nancy Gertner: “What he is doing and trying to do is lawless from top to bottom, and it would be shocking if judges did not respond.”

The notion that this justice would do this at this time following January 6th, given the fact that the Supreme Court, the opinions of the Supreme Court have plummeted, really is a in-your-face, you can't touch me and I don't care.

What is interesting about what she said, though, is that she's kicking all of this to the trial itself. And the trial could well be a mess, allowing Trump to raise defenses that really no one else would be allowed to raise and essentially…

This was a move that, in my view, is so far from constitutional that no judge worthy of their name would ever rule in a different direction.

This is just pushing back on the judiciary, and then, when the judiciary does what they don’t want them to do, and the judiciary says this is wrong, trying to delegitimize that decision.
