Lawyers for Donald Trump on Thursday filed an appeal to both houses of Congress, formally notifying them that the next step will be taken. This follows his efforts to have the federal election interference case against him thrown out. This comes shortly after Trump threatened to fire special counsel Jack Smith if he is re-elected.
Smith’s appointment and funding were done improperly, according to the legal team. It’s a defense strategy that has been used on Trump before and worked to have another case against him dismissed. Because you wonder — is this attack born out of desperation or a calculated defense?
With the scheduled trial just days away, Trump has never faced more at risk. Additionally, his endeavors to stifle power in the fallout of a 2020 political decision misfortune are at the core of an individual who will remain on trial for compelling elections. Some critics say these are even efforts to break down the pillars of democracy.
