Donald Trump's legal troubles at the federal level appear over for now, but two state-level cases are still in limbo.
Former President Donald Trump waits for the start of proceedings in Manhattan criminal court, Tuesday, April 23, 2024, in New York. Before testimony resumes Tuesday, the judge will hold a hearing on prosecutors' request to sanction and fine Trump over social media posts they say violate a gag order prohibiting him from attacking key witnesses.
“Donald Trump is simply evading accountability because he won the presidential election. And there's a Department of Justice Policy that has never been vetted, that has never been approved or even challenged in front of a court that prohibits prosecuting a sitting president," said Rep. Dan Goldman, D-N.Y.
Some judge is going to say you can’t just put a case on hold against a President of the United States...I don’t think the Supreme Court would let the case be put on hold for four years, I think they would say you can’t have something hanging over the President of the United States about a criminal prosecution, and if the case is pending, arguably something’s hanging over Trump," he said.
