Serious question for the MAGA types on here. If this is truly a witch hunt, and he's done nothing wrong, why is he trying so hard to delay this trial? Seems like an innocent man would want to get to trial and prove his innocence ASAP.

Probably the same reason he wants immunity and takes the 5th; He is guilty as hell!

Let me get this straight. President Trump exercising his 5th Amendment rights is an admission of guilt?
From the link:
"Quinn v. United States, 349 U.S. 155, 161-62 (1955) (footnotes omitted, quoting Twining v. State of New Jersey, 211 U.S. 78 (1908)). This explanation makes perfect sense: While we hope that law enforcement will act responsibly and impartially in exercising its considerable powers, history has repeatedly taught that that is not always the case, and that “heedless, unfounded, or tyrannical prosecutions” did not vanish with the compelled false confessions of the Star Chamber."

The Fifth Amendment Is for Innocent People, Too | New York Law Journal
The ability of an entirely innocent person to plead the Fifth Amendment and refuse to answer questions even under compulsory process such as subpoena or court order is a large part of why we have the right in the first place.

Your buttons reflect your approval of open borders, America for sale, all the violence across this country, and the stupidity of the current administration.
