they don t all interact with each other. my guess is the former president doesn t know maybe half or more of these codefendants. so it s going to be interesting to see the pressures that the various individuals feel and how that makes them act in going forward in this case. how does it affect the overall timeline as we see a new filing with fairly early proposed start or perhaps opening bid from the d.a. of october? so i think given the number of defendants and the likelihood of there being at least some pretrial motions if not from all of the defendants, certainly from several of them. i think that sounds a bit unrealistic, but with the caveat i don t practice in fulton county, but if this were a federal case, that would be an unrealistic date. and so if you know that and i referred to that earlier, that the precedent would suggest it takes more time. we know the d.a. and her team knows that, explain to us what she might be doing
and i have been thinking about it. here we are in the summer and there s a lot of rico bookings this week. i know you got to go and i m going to see you in roughly an hour, but i wanted to share that with you and give you thoughts for what might be the biggest booking yet. i invoked you in the first hour of my show, or second hour, when he told me donald trump switched lawyers in georgia from cardi b. s lawyer to usher s lawyer, and i said, where is ari melber when you need him? i m sure there s some journey analysis when you go from the lawyer who helped cardi b. to the lawyer that helped usher. you re so right. georgia and atlanta have a rich history, some go through the booking process and get acquitted. others don t. the new lawyer represented gunna who got out of a rico case that s still pending by the same d.a. and rick ross, who has skirted the law i think that s fair to say.
