It’s Perfectly OK if Trump Is in Court During the Election, DOJ Warns

The Justice Department is making it clear that the “60-day rule” doesn’t apply to Donald Trump’s trials.​

Amid an ongoing spar over when Donald Trump’s classified documents case will begin, the Justice Department has clarified once and for all that he cannot continue to delay his legal trials by claiming that he has to focus on the election.

On Friday, Judge Eileen Cannon asked about the DOJ’s “60-day rule” against taking actions that might affect an upcoming election.

But the DOJ said that the “60-day rule” does not apply to Trump’s actual trials, on the basis that he was indicted before he started campaigning, and that his trials are already being litigated.

“We are in full compliance with the justice manual,” announced Jay Bratt, a senior counterintelligence supervisor at the Justice Department, during the hearing—which Trump attended in person.

To that end, Trump could be smack dab in the middle of a criminal trial during the election itself.

Well, that's good to know. What do you think?

The meme is kinda wrong though....it says the rule was a candidate can't be tried within 60 days of an election, but being TRIED was never part of their rule...the 60 days prior to the election was for bringing indictments, making public announcements on charges etc....

Please quote the 60-day rule.
 
If the DOJ or any of the numerous prosecutors pushing cases against Trump, manages to have a trial sixty days or less before the election, their goal must be to have Trump surpass Ronald Reagan's 1980 forty-nine state electoral landslide.

Lakhota and the others, y'all still don't know that every time Democrats go after Trump in the courts, it only makes him more popular?

It only makes him more popular among NaziCons and miscellaneous deranged retards. Keep sending the money! He can use it in the prison canteen.

The meme mentions candidate trials can't take place close to an election, but that is wrong....as you are showing.

Here is the 60 day rule...

The Justice Department has a written policy that says “federal prosecutors and agents may never select the timing of any action, including investigative steps, criminal charges, or statements, for the purpose of affecting any election, or for the purpose of giving an advantage or disadvantage to any candidate or political party.”
