Yeah, this is the catch. I think there's a viable chance of him being found guilty of insurrection, but the whole "he doesn't need to be found guilty to be found guilty" thing making the rounds is mostly cope.

Kinda terrifying how even judges are polarized on this.

It's only complicated by the fact that there are already trials scheduled to specifically judge whether or not he is guilty of some of the offenses related to this. If there were no ongoing trials it would be easier to make the case that his guilt is evident, but it's kind of difficult to say that when at the same time he's awaiting a trial date to determine whether he is guilty of the things that are being claimed evident.

But, given that Trump seems to have scared away every competent lawyer in the country, they are instead arguing that the president isn't an officer of the United States even though he is literally the Commander in Chief, because apparently being elected isn't the same as being appointed. So if there are any legality technicalities that could push this off until after the trial, his lawyers certainly aren't going for them.
