All that says is that Merrick Garland shoulda hit the ground running on day #1.

All that says is that Merrick Garland shoulda hit the ground running on day #1. And if the justice system is not a "speed demon," then it begs the question of whether our justice system was designed to stop a dictator wannabe in his or her tracks. At this stage, it appears not. The judicial system is far too sluggish for the times we are in. And who is going to keep the faith if Donald John Trump is re-elected, asserts his dictatorial powers on day 1, and invokes the Insurrection Act to put down peaceful protesters? And prosecutes (or worse) his political rivals. In these last few years I've lost faith in our system of checks and balances, mostly due to Congressional failures, but now the judicial system seems to failing democracy too.
The speed of our judicial system can be efficient. It takes courage and a willingness by all to hold a recalcitrant defendant accountable. Words such as rocket docket, fast track, etc. are used to describe a system already in place that can be applied.
Follow those with power/influence to affect an outcome at each step like Judge Eileen Cannon and discovery of their political views or other bias will be found driving their decisions if said rulings unduly favor one party over another consistently. In her case she “showed her ass” earlier as demonstrated by the Eleventh Circuit’s quick reversal of her two earlier rulings. The Circuit’s rebuke was swift and harsh.
Hopefully Cannon’s early bias can be used to boot strap any new, “coloring outside the lines” as a continuation of her bias.
Perhaps it can be when dealing with the ordinary, average guy (apologies to Joe Walsh!). But in donald john trump's case it's slow as molasses, and democracy is circling the drain.
The US Supreme Court can move mountains quickly when they want to do so, as can federal trial judges and appellate courts. This case is a non-starter for the courts because agent orange desires to delay the cases - potentially enabling him to dismiss all cases against he and his minions if he rigs the system and becomes prez again.
I love the agent orange(and not capitalized) reference. What amazes me is the utter failure of others to hang a nickname on Trump. So many words rhyme with Trump like hump, rump, stump, chump, dump, clump, etc.
Certainly we can come up with one that will stick and infuriate him. I am not in favor of insulting others but hey, it is about time, eh?

I like citizen trump because it is all he is and I feel quiet he hates being reminded of that fact.
Check out Jeff Tiedrich’s Substack if you want nicknames for the orange man.
Such as (one of my favorites), "Agolf Shitler."
Jeffs list is long.
I like “Turnip.”
Easy to see and feel the “rigging” going on? Systems be damned?
What are WE the People seeing in OUR Country?
