As his election campaign continues its work, former US President Donald Trump announced on Monday his intention to attend a federal appeals court hearing regarding the scope of his presidential immunity in Washington, DC, today (Tuesday), according to his post on the “Truth Social” platform.
Trump wrote: “I will be attending the Federal Appeals Court Arguments on Presidential Immunity in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday,” he wrote. “Of course, I was entitled, as President of the United States and Commander in Chief, to Immunity. I wasn’t campaigning, the Election was long over. I was looking for voter fraud.”
The US Supreme Court announced on Friday that it would decide whether Trump could be removed from participating in the 2024 presidential elections, in light of the decision taken by the Colorado Supreme Court to remove him from the state’s primary elections. The announcement comes as the presidential election campaign continues and will consider for the first time the 14th Amendment. The states of Colorado and Maine relied on to remove Trump, and the ruling on this article will greatly determine Trump’s political future.
Trump, the front-runner in the Republican presidential primaries, presented an untested argument from a legal perspective, that he should enjoy absolute immunity from charges that he planned to cancel the 2020 elections, which is one of four criminal indictments he faces, according to the American website “Axios”.
US District Judge Tanya Chutkan, who is overseeing the case of Trump sabotaging the 2020 elections, rejected the immunity argument last month, but agreed to temporarily halt the proceedings while the decision is appealed.
