Cybersecdn- Federal appeals court judges in Washington are critically examining former President Donald Trump’s assertion of immunity concerning his alleged involvement in attempting to overturn the 2020 election results. This scrutiny, particularly from judges appointed by President Joe Biden, underscores the legal complexities of the case.
The jurisdiction of the court to entertain Trump’s appeal at this juncture is under question, hinting at the possibility of the appeal’s dismissal. The crux of Trump’s defense lies in the argument that prosecuting a president for official actions could set a dangerous legal precedent.
