You know that I am a high priest in the Church of Ain't Nothin' Gonna Happen.
BUT...I also have personal experience advising clients who have gone up a bigger, better-funded, bullying adversary, when we are dead-solid right on the law and facts. I tell them that the other side is going to throw everything they have at us, and charge and bellow like an 800 pound silverback gorilla.....because THAT'S ALL THEY HAVE. To win, all we have to do is....still be there, standing firm, just like we are, when the dust settles and the gorilla has run out of shit to throw.
Patience is our weapon, and it's a lethal motherfucker. Sometimes it has taken a year. Or two. Or even four. But in every such dynamic, the same outcome came to pass. The gorilla ran out of shit to throw, we were still standing, and then we deployed our side of the case on OUR terms and beat the fuck out of them.....and they quickly surrendered, because they had nothing left (indeed, they never had anything at all, just money and bluster).
The system does allow bullies to take advantage of it and delay and cost lots of money. It fucking sucks, and is bullshit. But, the system is also still there when the bullies run out of money and shit to throw. I expect that the experienced litigants and prosecutors on the other side of Trump in these cases all know that. The legal positions of bullies like Trump fail as follows: not at all....then slowly....then all at once.
I sure as shit hope that pattern stays true here.
