Well that sucks. So the judge can drag it out forever and then Trump can just use running for president excuse.

No. This case will have specific rules it must follow because of the nature of the documents and felonies. If she hampers the trial the DOJ can appeal directly to the appeals court under CIPA. While trump can also use this appeals process, it should cause her to pause.
