As former President Donald Trump pursues another White House bid, he faces a hectic court schedule. This includes four charges in Washington, D.C. related to election interference, 13 charges in Georgia for attempting to overturn the 2020 election results, 34 charges in New York related to a hush-money case, and 40 federal charges in the Florida classified documents case.
Straight Arrow News contributor David Pakman analyzes the potential impact of Trump’s legal challenges on his presidential aspirations and provides a prediction of how the 2024 elections might unfold.
We are heading towards a historic event in American history. And this is going to be not just one or two or three, but the quadruple-simultaneous [sic] criminal prosecution of a former president of the United States, while that former president is also running to be, once again, the Republican nominee, and to eventually be made president [sic].
Now I want to talk a little bit about this, now that the trial dates are shaking out, and we’re sort of realizing that there’s going to be criminal trials going on as voting starts in the Republican primary. There will be criminal trials going on as the general election gets going over the summer. There will even likely be criminal trials into the next president’s term, which could be Trump. Trump could be president and still facing criminal trials, and what that will be like, I don’t even know. Let’s take that one step at a time.
First question. In a very practical sense, can Trump continue being a candidate, while going between four different courtrooms?
