The former presidentās legal team requested a trial delay, saying Habba had been exposed to COVID and had a fever. She attended the party one day later.
Donald Trumpās attorney, Alina Habba, was spotted rubbing elbows with Republicans in New Hampshire on Tuesday, just the day after asking for a delay in the ex-presidentās defamation trial because she was feeling under the weather.
On Monday, one of the nine jurors considering writer E. Jean Carrollās second defamation suit against Trump was excused for being ill.
Though Judge Lewis Kaplan and Carrollās lawyers agreed to continue the trial with eight jurors, Trumpās legal team requested a delay, saying Habba had been exposed to COVID and had a fever. She was not wearing a mask during the hearing.
The next day, however, Habba was sighted celebrating Trumpās win in the New Hampshire primary by NBC Newsā Garrett Haake.
Nope, it goes to the Speaker of the House, but more likely the Supreme Court would just pull a 2000 and assign the presidency.
Wait. Really? So say Biden/Harris are Pres/VP. trump/CarrotTop are pres/vp-elect. trump gets disqualified before the inauguration, so when the inauguration comes around, Biden/Harris are out because they lost, and trump has been disqualified, so it goes to the Speaker? Why is CarrotTop disqualified?
They really didnāt do that though. They essentially decided two things:
A state counting some ballots under different rules than other ballots violates equal protection.
Election deadlines are legal and enforceable.
Gore wanted to recount a handful of places under a different standard than the rest of the state (basically changing how to handle undervotes, overvotes, that sort of thing) after the previous count and recount under the state standard did not give him a win, starting this recount just a couple of days before the deadline. Bush asked for an injunction and for SCOTUS to sort it out, and SCOTUS heard the case and issued a judgement in frankly record time, but that still meant their opinion was issued 2 hours before the deadline.
Those looking into the Florida 2000 election after the fact actually came to the conclusion that the last recount Gore called for wouldnāt have caused him to win if completed, but an estimate by one org suggests that had it been a statewide recount under the standard Gore wanted to use that that would have tipped things in Goreās favor but thatās not a count that had ever been put on the table.
