TL;DR Summary

Former President Donald Trump pleaded not guilty to a Georgia criminal indictment accusing him of attempting to overturn the 2020 election results and requested a separate trial from his co-defendants. The indictment includes 13 felony counts, such as racketeering, for pressuring state officials and allegedly setting up a fake slate of electors. Trump's lawyers argued for a different trial schedule due to insufficient time to prepare. This is Trump's fourth indictment, with trials scheduled in New York, Florida, and Washington. Despite the legal battles, Trump remains the front-runner for the 2024 Republican nomination.
