The Deep State is doing all it can to stop Donald Trump.
Their latest attempt is an indictment in a classified documents case.
The trial date has now been set.
The trial will take place on May 14th, 2024.
A federal judge ordered Friday that the trial in the classified documents case that special counsel Jack Smith brought against former President Donald Trump begin in mid-May 2024.
US District Judge Aileen Cannon scheduled jury selection to begin on May 14 at the federal courthouse in Ft. Pierce, Florida. She said a two-week trial period would then begin on May 20.
Prosecutors wanted the date as soon as December, and Trump’s legal team wanted it after the 2024 election.
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon announced the finalized trial date after the Republican presidential candidate’s legal team asked the court to delay the proceedings until after the 2024 election. Prosecutors had asked for a trial as soon as December.
Cannon’s compromise date would put Trump’s trial nearly at the end of the GOP presidential primary calendar, by which time it will likely be clear who has won the primary — but not before that candidate is officially nominated at the Republican National Convention.
