Supreme Court Rejects Trump's Immunity Claim in Election Subversion Prosecution

Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner believes that the Supreme Court will not intervene to delay Donald Trump's criminal trial in Washington D.C. because they do not want to enable his return to power. Trump, who has been indicted on four counts related to the January 6 Capitol riot, has claimed innocence and accused prosecutors of political targeting. However, U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan ruled that Trump does not have immunity from legal consequences due to his presidency. Kirschner predicts that the trial will begin on March 4, 2024, and expects a guilty verdict followed by a prison sentence for Trump.
