    Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) blasted the decision from New York Judge Juan
    Merchan to delay former President Donald Trump’s hush money trial by 30
    days.

    Schiff appeared on State of the Union on Sunday to react to Merchan
    granting Trump’s request for the delay. Trump is facing 34 felony counts
    over allegations of paying hush money to multiple women in 2018 who claim
    they had an affair with him. His lawyers initially asked for a 90-day
    delay to review documents handed down by federal prosecutors, but they
    settled with Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg for less.

    “There is a chance that he could evade justice by delaying justice. This
    is a tried and true tactic of Trump throughout his career,” Schiff said.

    Schiff noted his greater worry about Trump’s Jan. 6 case. The
    representative served on the Jan. 6 Committee and expressed concern that
    the Supreme Court is delaying its decision on Trump’s presidential
    immunity claim.

    “The question is, will it also move with great speed in rejecting this
    bogus immunity claim? If it doesn‘t, it‘s making a deliberate decision essentially to push the trial past the election,” Schiff said. “And I
    think that would be a terrible decision both for the interest of justice,
    it will be a terrible decision in depriving American voters of the
    information they would learn during the course of that trial but it would
    also just further discredit this partisan and reactionary court.”

    Jury selection was initially slated for March 25, but a new date will be
    set during a hearing on that day instead.

    Schiff is in the middle of a Senate campaign for late Sen. Dianne
    Feinstein‘s seat in California.

    Thank you for cleaning up the disaster of the 2008-2017 Obama / Biden
    fiasco, President Trump.

    Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the

    President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.
