While it’s only a matter of time before Donald Trump’s federal criminal cases are gone, there’s an important distinction between the two prosecutions, which the Justice Department reportedly has been evaluating how to wind down before the president-elect takes office in January.

U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon said the praise former President Donald Trump has repeatedly lavished on her — and the “speculation” that he could promote her if elected president — are not enough to warrant her recusal from cases involving Trump.

Cannon, who dismissed all charges against Trump in his classified documents case, has been listed as his potential attorney general.
