Former President Donald Trump was indicted Tuesday by special counsel Jack Smith, who charged the former commander in chief with four counts in connection with his attempts to overturn the 2020 election.
According to Smith, the 77-year-old “pursued unlawful means of discounting legitimate votes and subverting the election results” in a desperate bid to stay in power after his defeat by Joe Biden. Prosecutors charged that the 45th president’s incessant claims of election fraud costing him re-election “were false and [Trump] knew they were false.
“But the Defendant repeated and widely disseminated them anyway — to make his knowingly false claims appear legitimate, create an intense national atmosphere of mistrust and anger, and erode public faith in the administration of the election.” Donald Trump claimed that Smith would announce charges in connection with his attempts to overturn the 2020 election.Jack Smith was tasked with spearheading the DOJ’s two-pronged inquiries revolving around Donald Trump last year.Federal authorities have confiscated hundreds of pages worth of classified documents from Donald Trump’s residence.The indictment would be the second brought by Smith against Trump.
