thx for the many well-considered replies, and interpreting my 'request for delays' correctly as 'procedures to invoke delays'.

so 3 items lead to a depressing conclusion :

- trump could have easily? been universally labeled a 'vexatious litigant' before 2016, given his history of using court as a playground. but now as a former POTUS, judiciaries are afraid to label him thus, and will reply in complete consideration of downstream SCOTUS backing, effectively getting him some or all the delay he was after.

- even without his own funding, trump has benefactors that can buy him the modest, even sub-par level of legal talent needed to draw things out.

- prepping for 4 years to pull greater illegal shenanigans in 2024, the GOP has plenty of MAGA willing to risk prison themselves and offer trump plausible deniability. a landslide loss could blunt this.

conclusion : trump's lifelong court strategy ensures no serious accountability for future crimes in any timeframe before he expires. if there is a 2024 election loss, current pending cases are the only longshots.
