The Spin

Anti-Trump narrative

It's about time that Cannon ruled on something rather than continuing to push this trial further into the future. She was probably right to strike the incident from the indictment, especially since she seems willing to allow it to be submitted as evidence. But it's also time for her to stop her slow pace of this case so the American public can hear it sooner rather than later.

Pro-Trump narrative

Cannon is handling this fraudulent case at the right pace, allowing the public to see how desperately the Biden-led government wants to persecute Trump. Whether it's fabricated evidence or other wrongdoings by Smith's team, this case is nothing but an attempt by the Biden administration to hurt Trump's chances of winning the election — it should eventually be dismissed.
