    If she dismisses because it has to be filed in DC…they can just file in DC, get a more favorable judge, and have a great reason for why the court must reject Trump’s inevitable change of venue request.

    Florida was only picked to avoid change-of-venue requests. It’s not like there is nowhere to legally charge this case.
