Trump Files Three Motions to Dismiss 2020 Election Case
Former President Donald Trump’s lawyers have filed three new motions to dismiss the case surrounding his alleged attempts to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
The defense’s arguments for dismissal are on constitutional grounds, on legal grounds, and on selective prosecution grounds, saying the indictment “rants endlessly about President Trump’s politics” and shows “a shockingly un-American display of authoritarianism…”
Trump also claimed that he should be granted absolute immunity in the federal election interference case against him. The prosecution, led by special counsel Jack Smith, rebuked that argument in a filing last week.
Jack Smith’s team will also get a chance to respond to the newly filed motions within the next few weeks. (Read more from “Trump Files Three Motions to Dismiss 2020 Election Case” HERE)
