Kitchen Sink of Grievances
- Trump's motion to dismiss includes grievances like DA Alvin Bragg's alleged lies and the judge's supposed conflicts.
- These grievances, unrelated to the motion's substance, read like a press packet.
Irrelevant Grievances
- Trump's motion uses unrelated grievances, not new information, under the "interests of justice" argument.
- These grievances were already addressed, making them irrelevant to the motion's legal basis.
Buried Substance
- Trump's motion buries substantive arguments within pages of hyperbole and irrelevant grievances.
- The relevant legal arguments are found only after sifting through substantial extraneous material.
