It's so dumb that an appeal for a mistrial can get the whole case thrown out rather than simply retried with a different judge

Most mistrials are retried from the beginning. I imagine it’s mostly the cases that involve misconduct on the judges behalf that get throw out, as that’s a strong argument for a 6th Amendment violation.

At this point, his strategy is to delay, delay, delay, get elected, and pardon himself.
