Judge Aileen Cannon's Delays in Trump's Classified Docs Case Raise Legal and Political Eyebrows

As Trump's 2024 presidential campaign heats up, the indefinite postponement of his trial by a judge he appointed stirs controversy and legal scrutiny.

Judge Aileen Cannon, appointed by Donald Trump, has indefinitely postponed the trial over classified documents, originally set for May 20, 2024.
Critics argue Cannon's decisions could be seen as politically motivated, potentially influencing Trump's campaign by avoiding a pre-election trial.
Legal experts express concern over Cannon's slow handling of motions, which contrasts with typical judicial procedures.
Speculation arises that if Trump wins the election, his administration might intervene in ongoing cases against him.
Observers note that Cannon's rulings could set a precedent for future judicial appointments if Trump is re-elected.
