Why Trump’s vow to appeal his D.C. trial date probably won’t work

Trump’s vow to appeal his D.C. trial date likely won’t work because the U.S. Supreme Court has historically declined to intervene in such matters. The Supreme Court does not usually get involved in matters related to scheduling or trial dates in criminal cases. Furthermore, Trump faces a far less favorable outcome in the D.C. court system than he would in a more conservative-leaning region such as Florida, where he resides. In such cases, the Supreme Court has even less interest in getting involved.
