Washington, Aug 28 (UNI) Former President Donald Trump said that Kamala Harris should immediately call for the dismissal of the new indictment, arguing that the case should be thrown out based on presidential immunity.
“This travesty is now on Comrade Kamala Harris, who is actively pushing it, rather than immediately calling for its dismissal, as should be done,” Trump said on Truth Social on Tuesday.
Trump went on to say that Smith, aware of the US Supreme Court’s clear ruling on presidential immunity, had attempted to circumvent this decision by rewriting the same case.
“The people of our Country will see what is happening with all of these corrupt lawsuits against me, and will REJECT them by giving me an overwhelming Victory on November 5th for President of the United States,” Trump added.
Earlier today, a US grand jury returned with a new four-count indictment filed by Special Counsel Jack Smith against former US president Donald Trump for an alleged attempt to subvert the outcome of the 2020 election.
Smith’s recrafting of the indictment comes after the US Supreme Court ruled in July that Trump was immune to prosecution on the basis of official acts conducted as part of his role as president.
