Some more truth for you to flat out ignore:
Trump's lawyers moved to dismiss the case in its early stages based on the statute of limitations, but Merchan rejected the argument. In a
pretrial decision, the judge said the pandemic extension stretched out the deadline for the prosecution by one year and 47 days.
"In other words, this felony prosecution had to be commenced within six years and 47 days from when the crimes were allegedly committed," Merchan wrote.
Trump was charged within days of the potential deadline. The extension "brought the conduct described in the indictment within the prescribed five-year time limit," Merchan wrote.
Trump and his team have said the statute of limitations may be an issue in appealing his convictions. Here's what we know about the unusual timing.
