Editorial: Judge in documents case is clearly playing for Team Trump. She shouldn’t preside

First, U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon, a Donald Trump appointee, granted the former president’s request for a “special master” to review documents he took from the White House, a baffling decision derided by legal experts across the political spectrum.
