This is for everyone who is distressed about the dismissals of Jack Smith's cases against Trump [View all]

First things, first:

The thing to remember about Jack Smith: He is an excellent attorney. He exhibits two skills that it took me a long time to figure out their importance.

Strategy - every move that Smith made was meticulously planned and targeted. Redoing the indictments? Specifically designed to avoid the appearance of relying on evidence that could be excluded by the Trump immunity Supreme Court ruling. Move, countermove, counter-countermove and so on.
Attention to detail - good attorneys have a level of attention to detail that, to many people, border on the pathological. This attention to detail for Trumpers is almost non-existent as they all subscribe to the moral disaster of “the ends justify the means”. If they get what they want, they don’t care about the details.

With these 2 points in mind, let’s revisit the dismissal motions.

If Smith had held on and let the game play out, he gets canned and a Trumpian muppet steps in and makes the dismissal motion, the cases would be dismissed. Of that there is no doubt.

Initially, I thought it would be a good idea to allow this scenario to happen because then and forever more, the Trumpians would own the biggest travesty in presidential judicial history. The more I thought about it, the more I realized that this would have absolutely no impact on the Trumpians. Trumpians are 100000% sure that Trump has never done anything wrong. The crimes were all made up. The evidence manufactured. The courts so corrupted that they have lost all credibility etc. So for them, the dismissal, no matter how outrageous to non-Trumpians, was all that matters. it vindicates their fearless leader.

Trumpians hearing the news that the cases against Trump have been dismissed



I continued to think about it and I then realized that if Smith had let the Trumpians handle the dismissal, the dismissals would have happened but they might’ve been dismissed with prejudice. This would have closed the door, locked it and threw away the key on the government from revisiting the case.

Now, I want you to remember numbers 1 and 2 above: strategy and details.

So, Smith made his dismissal motions but he did so with 2 things in mind. First, as he filed the dismissal motions, he controlled the what it said and what was asked. Second, he relied on the Trumpians’ laser like focus on the end result but not the means or the details.

So, he filed for the dismissal, which he got. but he also included the caveat of dismissal without prejudice. This leaves the door open for the government to revisit the case sometime down the road.

Trumpians when (actually if) they realize that they got had by the “Deranged Jack Smith”



If you read thru the Trumpian exaltations, you will see that, to the last, they have completely missed this move by Smith but it’s too late now. You can’t dismiss a dismissed case.

Trump is not completely off the hook. He can still be held to account for his actions.

We may be stuck with him for a while but there is some light and hope in the distance.
