Former U.S. attorney Joyce Vance in a Friday podcast episode accused former President Donald Trump of “abusing the system” by using his rights as a defendant to legally delay his cases.
Trump has successfully delayed the cases he faces as a defendant, making it so some are unlikely to occur before the upcoming presidential election. Vance on “Defending Democracy” criticized Trump while praising Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and special counsel Jack Smith for their efforts to accelerate the cases against the former president and hold his “feet to the fire.” “I mean, it’s tough, right? It is a balancing act,” Vance said.

Utterly laughable, a Democrat talking about "abusing the system" when all the cases against Trump are a gross abuses of the system and election interference. This person should be ashamed of herself except Democrats have demonstrated over and over that they have no shame.

Her podcast is "Defending Democracy"......already, right there, she's anti-American. Should be "Defending Our Republic". We have NEVER had "democracy".
Old saying, democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what's for dinner.
In a republic, the sheep move to Sheepistan and the Wolves live in Wolfistan and they cooperate sometimes, but disagree on what's for dinner a lot.

That would be a "federal system" of a republic, many sovereign states allied under a federal government. So, Sheepistan and Wolfistan would send there representatives to the Big City to work things out.

The only one given the option for a speedy trial is the accused. The only time they take that offer is when they're an NFL superstar who murdered two people and they don't think the prosecutors can unravel the complicated forensic case in time.

This female dog shows exactly what our "justice" system has become under the corrupt FBI and DOJ. It is no longer interested in justice but in political prosecutions. Every one of them who thinks like her should lose their license to "practice" law -- as should a lot of democrat judges.

#13, that is a very famous quote from Benjamin Franklin. The founder very much understood that a true democracy is just the tyranny of the majority.

I notice that she does not say that Trump is doing anything illegal or unethical. She does say that he is within his legal rights to use all legal methods to delay his trials. To her it is delaying. To others, it is filing motions to get information, have things clarified, and charges dropped. All of this is legal and lawful. She and the prosecutors might not like it, but it is every defendants right. Think of all of the underhanded stuff that has been uncovered in the documents case because of Trump's requests and the judges rulings. If things were sped along, Jack Smith's slimy tactics would have gone unnoticed.
