Trump asks Supreme Court to put off his election interference trial, claiming immunity
The filing would grant a delay on what would be a landmark criminal trial of a former president while the nation’s highest court decides what to do.

He can't do this with the Georgia RICO case. He's fucked there in terms of appealing to SCOTUS.
There's a scenario there where Trump becomes President and then a state declares him guilty. What happens when they try to make him serve his sentence?
This is not a question we should ever need to answer, but we're staring at the possibility.
The trial would have to either be postponed until after the election or last that long. I don't think either is especially likely.
It's currently proposed to start on Aug 5. DA Fani Willis does not expect it to conclude until the winter, and possibly into 2025. So yes, this is a real possibility.
I had not heard that. Not good news.
No way Rico case happens before election, the DA couldn't keep her pants on. It will be years before Rico trail starts and by then all Trump needs is governor or DA lacky to drop everything. The Jan 6 case is the only one that could happen before election.
the DA couldn’t keep her pants on.
Good job buying into the Trump team rhetoric.
