President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump have both accepted an invitation from CNN to debate on June 27, a historically early showdown that will set the tone for the final months of the 2024 campaign.
How long do they think the defense portion of his first trial will last? Will his defense be like “we will give you the list of our witnesses on Nov 10th, no sooner.” If not, could Trump be convicted before the debate?
Na, the prosecution started on April 15th, cut witnesses, and tried to go as fast as it could. Trump loves slow walking everything, so it will be longer than the prosecution, putting closing statements beyond June 15th.
According to reports I’ve seen recently, Trump has no defense witnesses. If that’s true, all that’s left is closing statements and jury instructions. There be more motions, sure, but merchan doesn’t seem likely to be generous with delays at this point.

At this rate, he’ll be convicted before the end of the month.
