TL;DR Summary

Donald Trump's legal team argued in a US appeals court that former presidents should be immune from prosecution for actions taken in office, but judges appeared sceptical of this claim. The case revolves around charges that Trump conspired to overturn the 2020 US election, and the court's decision could impact his upcoming trial. Prosecutors argue that Trump's conduct was unprecedented and that he should not be immune from prosecution, while Trump's lawyers seek to dismiss the case and potentially delay the trial past its scheduled start date in March.
