Supreme Court Delays Trump's Trial

The US Supreme Court's decision to hear Donald Trump's claim of immunity but delay the trial until possibly after the 2024 election has major implications. Special counsel Jack Smith's trial against Trump for election interference, expected to start in March, now faces postponement until at least September, potentially leading to justice being postponed indefinitely. This delay strategy has been a significant win for Trump, allowing him to sidestep legal consequences for events like January 6.
