Honestly, how could this judge ever think he was going to
get away with not letting him go?
These trials this year will be used for studies for
decades, perhaps centuries on how show trials operate,
and how corrupt they are.
If the judge had wanted to let Trump attend the graduation, he would have said so from the beginning. He didn’t say yes because he didn’t want to let him go, but, IMO, received such negative backlash from the public that he caved.
