Trump seeks to run out the clock as delays push trials closer to Election Day: legal expert
Fox News
Timing could benefit former President Donald Trump as he faces criminal trials as Election Day 2024 creeps closer, legal experts say.
"The administration of justice in criminal cases is an important national priority, but it’s not the only one – or, necessarily, the highest one. How much intrusion on politics by the justice system should Americans tolerate – particularly under circumstances in which the intrusion is being orchestrated by the administration of the incumbent president against his campaign opponent?"
McCarthy’s op-ed was in response to a federal judge suspending Trump’s trial involving Special Counsel Jack Smith’s 2020 election interference investigation indefinitely last week, after it was set to begin on March 4. The move comes after Trump’s legal team filed an appeal arguing he is granted immunity from prosecution for actions in office.
