Donald Trump's Indictment of Insurrection

In this special episode of CAFE Insider, Preet and Joyce break down the third indictment of former President Donald Trump on charges that stem from alleged attempts to overthrow the results of the 2020 election. They discuss:

– Trump’s potential defenses and the challenges prosecutors will face in this unprecedented case;

– Special counsel Jack Smith’s decision not to charge the six unnamed co-conspirators who are referenced in the indictment and not to charge Trump directly for the January 6 insurrection; and

– The legal and political implications of bringing a third indictment against Trump ahead of the 2024 election, and how this case might fit within the timelines of the other cases.
