Don’t waste time with legal arguments, this judge isn’t interested in the law or precedent. He’s already thrown that all out the window. He’ll do what he wants, which will inevitably be overturned but he doesn’t care. It’s political with him, not legal.
Absolutely correct. Sullivan is stringing this out to play a waiting game, so that IF Trump isn’t re-elected, Flynn won’t have anyone available to pardon him. Sentencing will happen on the day after the inauguration of the new POTUS. That is what Sullivan is waiting for.
