A federal appeals court just dropped a bombshell saying Trump can't dodge charges claiming he tried to flip the 2020 election. Yep, you heard it right, folks! They basically said being a former president doesn't give you a free pass. Trump's claim of immunity got shut down hard.
Now, Trump's team ain't happy about it. They're talking about taking this thing higher, maybe even to the big dogs at the Supreme Court. But for now, everything's on pause until at least Monday. And get this, during the hearings, the judges threw out some wild scenarios, like what if a president ordered a hit on a rival? They're really highlighting how dangerous it could be to let a former president off the hook like that.
So, what's Trump accused of, you ask? Well, allegedly, he tried to strong-arm state officials, Justice Department folks, and even Vice President Pence to flip the election results. Serious stuff, right? But Trump's sticking to his guns, saying it's all just politics and pleading not guilty.
But here's the kicker: This isn't the first time Trump's tried to dodge the trial. He's been pulling legal maneuvers left and right, pushing back the start date over and over again. Who knows when this circus will finally kick off?
And here's a wild thought: If Trump somehow wins the next election, he might just try to pardon himself or get the Justice Department to sweep the whole thing under the rug. Crazy, huh? But that's politics for you.
