Trump lost the election then legally challenged the outcome by alleging voter fraud. After gathering evidence in audits, Trump’s team launched 62 court cases disputing the election results. Trump lost 61 court cases and was unable to prove any outcome-determinant voter fraud confirming he lost the election. After exhausting legal challenges, Trump engaged in a Conspiracy to Defraud the United States and a Conspiracy to Obstruct an Official Proceeding.
Jack Smith is prosecuting Trump for those crimes, unfortunately the Supreme Court is delaying the trial. Trump is claiming unreasonably broad immunity for acts he engaged in as President; an argument which he lost in court. On appeal the prosecutor asked the Supreme Court to expedite the process, but they did not. Instead in a lower court Trump’s arguments were yet again rejected. A 3 judge panel unanimously rejected Trump’s arguments, but the Supreme Court is now taking the case. It is likely they will rule against Trump again, but taking the appeal delays the timeline and puts the actual trial date after the November election potentially nullifying the trial forever. It strongly appears as though Trump called in a favor and the Supreme Court answered. The appearance of the Supreme Court acting in a political manner to benefit their preferred political candidate calls their credibility into question. They should significantly expediate their timeline and make a decision by April.
