Trump's Legal Troubles Mount as Evidence Piles Against Him

Special Counsel Jack Smith is expected to present "compelling" evidence in Donald Trump's federal election trial, suggesting that Trump and his allies were aware of his loss in the 2020 election but still attempted to overturn the results. Court filings indicate that Smith's team has evidence of Trump's knowledge of the unfavorable election results and his motive and intent to subvert them. The filings also mention an unindicted co-conspirator, identified as a "campaign employee," who allegedly obstructed the vote count in Michigan. Legal analyst Joyce Vance believes this evidence connects Trump's knowledge of his loss to his willingness to incite violence. Trump's trial is scheduled to begin on March 4.
