Judge Aileen Cannon on Friday set Donald Trump's classified documents trial to start on May 20, 2024.

Special counsel Jack Smith had pushed for a December start date. Trump wanted to push off the trial through the 2024 election, in which a Republican victory could make any federal charges against Trump disappear.

Reasonable date. Defense cannot complain it's insufficient time and if there's a delay or two, the trial will still be completed well before election day in November.

On to the next indictment.
