Should Judge Aileen Cannon recuse herself, in the case against Ryan Wesley Routh (Trump's attempted assassin.)(Details.)

Asked by MrGrimm888 (19588points) October 19th, 2024

RW Routh was the man caught on Trump’s golf course , alledgedly in an assassination attempt. RW Routh, is being charged with multiple crimes, and his judge is none other than Judge A. Cannon.
Cannon, a Judge Appomattox by former president Donald Trump, drew sharp criticism for her anomalous ruling of special prosecutor Jack Smith’s (the man in charge of Trump’s classified documents case) appointment as unconstitutional. Therefore preventing the US, from prosecuting former (AND potentially future president D. Trump.)

As she WAS appointed by Trump, was publicly praised by Trump, for her ruling on Jack Smith, Routh’s defense is arguing that Judge Cannon is in a unique position of gaining heavy favor from Trump if say, another SCOTUS position opens whilst Trump is the new POTUS.
Trump (the victim in this case) stands to gain a lot from Routh’s being found guilty.

RW Routh’s defense stated that; according to the constitution, Cannon cannot be seen as impartial by the public, in this case, and therefore she must recuse herself.
