Usually trying to delay a trial is done to give your side more time to prepare.
Jack Smith, the Clinton-linked special counsel targeting Trump, is strangely asking for a significant delay on behalf of Trump's people.
Special counsel Jack Smith has requested a delay in the classified and sensitive documents trial of former President Trump from August to December.
Smith on Friday filed a request for the start date for the trial be set for Dec. 11, which would be about four months after the initial Aug. 14 date that Judge Aileen Cannon set on Tuesday.
The filing notes that the case will require Trump's counsel to receive interim security clearances because the case concerns classified information, which will require additional time for the counsel to review and process the evidence that the government has gathered.
Pushing the trial to December will, along with inevitable further delays, will take the trial into the primary season: as it's intended to do.
I've said before that Trump faces no serious threat of jail, but that's not what this is about.
