'This trial date will stick': George Conway thinks Trump's immunity fight will end quickly
George Conway confidently predicted Donald Trump would quickly lose his immunity battle and stand trial as scheduled in his Washington, D.C., election subversion case.
The former president's attorney argued Tuesday that he should be broadly immune from criminal prosecution because he had not been convicted in his impeachment trial by the Senate following the Jan. 6 insurrection, but Conway told MSNBC's "Morning Joe" the three-judge appeals court panel might already have decided to deny that claim.
"I think this March 4 trial date could stick," Conway said. "I think this decision from the D.C. Circuit is going to come down within a week or two, probably a week, and maybe even less. I think they're probably already writing the opinion, I think they probably got a head start writing the opinion. If I were presiding judge I would have started writing the opinion already."

"I don't think there's going to be a big deal when it comes to getting that opinion out, and there's a good chance that the Supreme Court won't take it," Conway added. "Even if the Supreme Court does take it and hears arguments in March and April, they could issue a decision and we could have a trial in summer, before the fall."
