As newmedman just said again, it's tough to toss her. I don't have anything to add to:

Guess he knows how difficult it is recuse a judge and doesn't want to lose one. I wonder, has he used
that safety valve he set up where if she made a terrible decision then he could.... do something i forget.
What Does the Law Say About Recusing Judge Cannon?
... out a bit here ..
[...]There are two statutes that require federal district court judges to recuse themselves in cases where they might be biased or reasonably have their impartiality questioned, but such statutes have been interpreted narrowly and usually refer only to judges’ personal connections to cases. Therefore, having Cannon recused based on her history and perception of bias is a difficult task.
[...]Unless Judge Cannon decides to voluntarily recuse, the high bar for requesting recusal based only on prior judicial decisions, and the procedure for requesting recusal, makes the task of having Cannon recused seem almost impossible. Although the Eleventh Circuit has been quick to overturn Cannon’s questionable rulings in the past, forcing Cannon’s recusal here would be a significant departure from prior precedent. For these reasons, it appears unlikely that the prosecution would pursue recusal at the district court level and will prepare to conduct a trial with a judge who may be kinder to President Trump than some other judges. However, this does not mean recusal is irrelevant. https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=173822685

It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
