Yesterday I thought Jack Smith's move was pretty pointless. And now I see the genius of it!
Trump's only move to avoid sentencing was to call his SCOTUS buddies. And now the SCOTUS has the following choice - that they probably don't want to have to make:
In other words, Jack Smith brilliantly cornered the SCOTUS. Beautiful!
