Jim Walden was quoted in The Washington Post’s article “The Election Calendar’s Set. Trump’s Trial Timing? Deeply Unclear.”

“‘There’s no way to predict all the moving pieces that is the Trump legal saga,’ former federal prosecutor Jim Walden said. ‘In the history of mob prosecutions, I don’t think we ever saw an organized crime boss with four active criminal cases at the same time, and in Trump’s situation, it’s not just a matter of four cases and four judges.’

Walden described Trump as ‘a completely unpredictable defendant who is not motivated necessarily by vindication now as much as creating chaos so that he can eventually try to pardon himself if he’s lucky enough to eventually win the political contest.’”
