its really strange to watch america completely go off the rails
Please tell me it goes to a non-corrupt judge after this, although, no matter what it probably goes to the Supreme Court regardless and they’ll bend over backwards to make it not matter for what former presidents do out of office and/or God Emperor Trump will just quash the whole thing because nothing will happen until after the election.
Jack Smith can appeal the decision now, and probably demand it be reassigned -- but yeah, Trump lawyers will appeal will try to get it to Alito et al. There won't be a trial this year, regardless, and if Trump is re-elected this and the other federal case will magically disappear.

Gettin' Bibi vibes.
Unless a court kicks it into maximum overdrive, this isn't getting seen by the election. Your second alternative looks most likely to me right now.
Cannon dismissed the case due to Jack Smith being improperly elected to be a special prosecutor. It's one of those rules that exists on the books yet isn't actually followed by any congress or president.
So it'll likely get appealed to the 11th circuit. Best case scenario they would say "go get a properly elected special prosecutor." Since congress is majority Democrat, they could easily vote in Jack Smith as a special prosecutor.
If this is what happens, the case will get retried and a new judge will be selected to restart the case. It's possible we could get Cannon again, it's up to random chance and her name is still in the pool.
I hope NO ONE reads this and Realizes the Rule Of Law doesn't Exist in the US and take matters into their own hands. That would be SILLY and COMPLETELY UNPREDICTABLE and FULL of SHOCKED PIKACHU FACES!
thank you kindly! I updated the body with your link but left the main link as-is.
