"Trump's Legal Maneuvers: Challenging Indictments and Presidential Immunity"

TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump is urging the Supreme Court to grant him full immunity against special counsel Jack Smith’s election subversion charges, warning of potential blackmail and extortion for future presidents if they don't. He also proposed an alternative route to delay the trial until after the November election. Trump's lawyers referenced Justice Brett Kavanaugh's past statements, appealing to his experiences. The case, with oral arguments scheduled for April 25, could have far-reaching consequences for future presidents and may complicate efforts to start a trial before the year ends.
