Trump's Lawyers Argue Against 2020 Election Timeline: Special Counsel Compared To Grinch In Complaint, 'Must Find Some Way To Keep Christmas From Coming'
Portfolio Pulse from Chris Katje
Former President Donald Trump's legal team is arguing against the timeline for his upcoming trial related to the 2020 election, comparing the prosecution's efforts to speed up the trial to the Grinch's attempt to 'keep Christmas from coming.' The trial is set to start on March 4, 2024, the day before Super Tuesday. Trump's lawyers have requested a delay until 2026, which could potentially benefit Trump if he were elected president again. The Supreme Court is set to decide quickly on whether to hear the case, with Trump's lawyers needing to respond by December 20. The article also mentions Comcast Corporation (NASDAQ:CMCSA) in relation to the Grinch character, as its unit Illumination produced an animated film featuring the Grinch.

NEUTRAL IMPACT
Comcast Corporation's unit Illumination was mentioned for producing an animated film featuring the Grinch, a character used metaphorically by Trump's lawyers in their legal arguments.
The mention of Comcast Corporation is tangential and related to the Grinch character used in a metaphor by Trump's legal team. It is unlikely to have a significant short-term impact on Comcast's stock price as it does not pertain to the company's operations, financials, or strategic decisions.
