Trump Confronts Ongoing Civil Lawsuits Amid Political Turmoil
TL;DR Summary
Donald Trump faces eight civil lawsuits related to the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, despite the collapse of criminal cases against him. These lawsuits, filed by members of Congress and injured police officers, seek accountability for Trump's alleged role in inciting the violence. A key issue is whether Trump is immune from these suits due to his presidential role. The cases could proceed during his potential second term, with significant financial liabilities at stake. Trump's legal battles extend beyond Jan. 6, including defamation and fraud cases, adding to his legal challenges.
