Willis proposes March 4 start date for Trump's Georgia election interference trial The date is one day before Super Tuesday in the 2024 presidential race.
Fani Willis has proposed a March 4 start date for the trial of former President Trump and 18 others on charges of attempting to overturn the election results in Georgia.
This seemed to be popular information when I posted it (ahem) "elsewhere". Thought it might be welcome to have here.

Other grand juries, such as for the documents at Bedminster, have not been announced.
The E. Jean Carroll trial for sexual assault and defamation where Trump was found liable and ordered to pay $5 million before immediately defaming her again resulting in a demand for $10 million is not listed as it's a civil case and not a crimimal one. That trial date is currently set for January 15th, the same day as the Iowa caucus.
I think this is the first time I realized he is now facing 91 felony charges. If he is convicted for even a fraction of them it means a life sentence at his age. I imagine he is pretty desperate at this point.
27Excellent info graphic I saw earlier today: The average US president has been charged with 2 felonies.
20Life sentence for people like Giuliani as well, who is 79. I expect more flips than a Waffle House when the juries start marching in.
13if... he goes to jail, that is.
seems most likely he'll be under house arrest. which is a joke.
10He will lokely get epstein'd if that happens. He's got too big of a mouth

91 felonies.
so.... anybody know any law-historians that might actually have a real answer as to who holds the single most felony convictions? (and would it be too low-class to take bets on if trump takes the record?)
13Serial killer Samuel Little confessed to 93 murders so he's for sure on the leaderboard
8Hmm. sounds like we need to drum up a few counts of witness tampering... got plenty of evidence, too.

Super Tuesday 😂😂😂😂
13And the E. Jean Carroll civil lawsuit is the same day as the Iowa caucus. 1/15.

This is like seeing a trailer for an awesome new movie that doesn't come out for another 6 months. The anticipation is killing me!
11SUPER DUPER MONDAY!!!
5I thought this was supposed to be January 2nd. Or is this for another trial? It's so hard to keep track of them all...
31/2 is the first proposed date for the 1/6 trial in D.C.
Trump lawyers countrered that they wanted 3.5 years, which nobody is taking seriously.
Judge is due to announce the date on 8/28.

My favorite feature of this is the judge has threatened to speed the trial up the more Trump interferes. All judges should do this all the time from now on.
3How about fuck no! Can we please not give this guy a platform to campaign on? Please, for the love of all that is left in this country just don't give him an inch. I can see it now "The crooked Democrats are trying to use the political systems against me! Never has this happened in the history of our great country! The Biden crime family is trying to blah blah blah blah.......!!!!"
-8- justice system.
Trump was part of the political system. These people are part of the justice system.
5think he’ll be complaining regardless and screaming victimhood for the rest of his life. We need not walk on eggshells around a clearly brazen huckster because then he can manipulate the situation. No, thanks
5It doesn't matter, the people have already chosen their side. This won't flip anyone either way. Lets just hope everyone else is as incentivized to vote by the trials as his base will be. And hopefully most of his base is now fully aware of what happens if you answer his "subtle" calls to violent action.
5Any date will be close enough to some other date for them to make a big deal out of it, and if it wasn't they would still say the same stuff.
Stop concern trolling.
4Nothing prosecutors or anyone else could ever do to stop him from that type of talk. The reason we all recognize your phrasing as something he would say is because it is exactly like everything he ever says.
Let the trials go on. America is lost as a democracy if we don't convict the first insurrection by a president we've ever had.
4Pretty sure all the trial dates are subject to change, and this one hasn't even been approved by a judge yet, it's just the first step. Trump team will counter with "Never, how about never going to trial, does that work?" then a judge will set a real date which will also be subject to change.
