npub1v2sycpx32th4h4aude3jq4g0kgj0p2t5062059l0fx0vcn8njs8spcmqq5 (npub1v2s…mqq5) Ok, but play it out one more step. Let's say the case lands in Cannon's department. Let's say she doesn't recuse. (I think that one's close to a given.) Let's say that the government writs it to the 11th, and they order the chief judge to assign someone else. The chief judge, Hon. Cecilia Altonaga, is a Bush II appointee; let's say she says "nuh-uh." This goes back to the 11th, who says "no, we really meant it." Trump's team petitions the Supremes for cert. Think they'd get it? I kind of do. Call me cynical, but these days I'm not entirely comfortable putting my faith in any mid-level appellate decision that's contrary to Trump's interests.
