US Presidential Election: The new year 2024 could be a ‘sad new year’ for former US President Donald Trump, who may see his world collapsing. This has been said in a report.
In 2023, he faced a mountain of litigation in four jurisdictions, leaving him in some ways stronger than he started, resulting in 91 felony convictions. He had never faced the President of America before.
Newsweek said in its latest issue released over the weekend that although Trump has in some ways built a stronger position in 2023 than when he started, his world could collapse in the new year.
What has been said in the report about Trump?
The former president is still the front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination despite his numerous legal troubles, but his campaign and court calendars are set to overlap sharply in 2024, making it difficult for him to run for the White House, media reports said. It will be difficult to campaign independently for his second term.
Closing arguments are scheduled for early January in Trump’s civil defrauding trial in a lower Manhattan court in cases that threaten the future of his real estate empire that catapulted him to fame and later propelled him to the White House.
The New York AG has brought a civil fraud tax case suing him for a $250 million fine, while the presiding judge Angoron has already revoked his business license to do business in New York, but an appeals court postponed it.
Most of his election sabotage cases came to light in March when actual hearings began in Washington DC district courts before Judge Chutkan and the Fulton County Racketeering Case in Georgia under the RICO Act.
Judge Arthur Angorone has the top claim in the lawsuit brought by New York Attorney General Letitia James, ruling that Trump and his company grossly overstated their assets and net worth by making deals and obtaining loans. Defrauded banks, insurers and others.
What did Donald Trump say?
Media reports say Trump has denied wrongdoing and said financial documents actually understate his net worth. While his business associates estimated his wealth at $3.5 billion, Trump’s own estimate was $6.5 billion.
Paying $250 million in damages for tax fraud is a drop in the ocean for Trump, but losing his business license in New York will damage his credibility, integrity and image as a businessman.
She also faces a defamation claim stemming from a lawsuit by columnist E. Jean Carroll, who said Trump defamed her in 2019 when she first publicly accused him of raping her in a department store dressing room. Imposed.
The trial has been delayed for years due to appeals. She is seeking $10 million in compensatory damages and much more in punitive damages, Newsweek reports. It is claimed that Trump again defamed Carroll with public comments after winning a separate defamation lawsuit earlier this year.
In May, a Manhattan jury found Trump liable for sexual assault and defamation of Carroll and ordered him to pay $5 million in damages. Reports say the former Elle magazine columnist is seeking $10 million in compensatory damages and even more in punitive damages.
Donald Trump is dealing with these lawsuits
The first of four criminal trials of Trump – on charges that he conspired to overturn the results of the 2020 election – leading to the violent riot at the US Capitol on January 6, 2021. – Scheduled to start in early March.
Special counsel Jack Smith, who is prosecuting the case, filed a brief on Saturday urging a federal appeals court to reject Trump’s claims of executive immunity as president. Trump is also accused in another federal case of illegally storing classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago estate. That case is currently scheduled to go to trial on May 20 in Florida, although Trump’s lawyers are working to delay it.
Trump also faces state charges in Georgia, accusing him of trying to overturn the 2020 election results there, and in New York, accusing him of allegedly making hush payments to a porn actor. An allegation has been made in relation to falsification of business records.
He has pleaded not guilty to all charges and denounced them as politically motivated efforts to derail his 2024 campaign. Yet the former president’s numerous legal problems have yet to hurt him as he campaigns to recapture the White House—his lead against his GOP rivals now larger than it was before his first impeachment in March. Is even stronger.
Lawsuits seeking to remove Trump from the ballot in 2024 are also pending in 14 states, including battleground states Arizona, Nevada and Wisconsin, and it is likely the nation’s highest court will make the final decision on whether Trump can vote in Maine and others. Will they be present in the states to vote or not?
