The Supreme Court previously ruled that former presidents have broad immunity from criminal prosecution.
Donald Trump was hit by a new federal indictment on Aug 27 in his bid to overturn his 2020 election defeat.
The Supreme Court ruled on July 1 that Trump cannot be prosecuted for actions that were within his constitutional powers as president.Trump in a statement on his Truth Social media platform said the Supreme Court’s immunity ruling should lead to the entire case being thrown out, saying: “Smith rewrote the exact same case in an effort to circumvent the Supreme Court Decision.”
Trump is again seeking election as the Republican candidate, this time in a race against Democratic Vice-President Kamala Harris. The election takes place on Nov 5 this year. The revised indictment no longer includes allegations that Trump sought to pressure the US Justice Department in his bid to overturn his election defeat, an apparent effort to keep the prosecution alive after the high court found that Trump could not be prosecuted for that conduct.
