Lisa Rubin is a former litigator and an MSNBC legal analyst. She is also the off-air legal analyst for 'The Rachel Maddow Show' and 'Alex Wagner Tonight.'
Early Monday morning, just hours before a federal judge began a long-scheduled hearing on whether or not to limit Donald Trump's and his lawyers’ out-of-court statements, the former president unleashed yet another attack of the exact kind special counsel Jack Smith had asked the judge to address.
It's also the first scheduled criminal trial against the former president — and she was emphatic at Monday's hearing that her trial will not yield to the political calendar. That means none of the criminal trials against Trump will even start until he is already effectively the nominee. Meanwhile, the unfolding political calendar could enable Trump to advance one of his central themes more convincingly, even if still inaccurately.
