Trump Faces Target Letter in Special Counsel's Investigation into 2020 Election

Former President Donald Trump has received a target letter from the special counsel investigating his attempts to overturn the 2020 election results, indicating that he could soon face federal indictment for his actions leading up to the Capitol attack. This would be the second indictment brought by the special counsel, adding to the multiple legal troubles Trump is currently facing. The specific charges are unknown, but evidence has been gathered regarding various tactics used by Trump and his allies to contest the election outcome. Trump's campaign strategy has been to portray the investigations as political persecution, while his rivals within the Republican Party remain cautious in criticizing him. The potential indictment highlights the high stakes of the ongoing legal and political battle surrounding Trump's future.
