Donald Trump not exonerated in Capitol Hill riots case, says Special Prosecutor Jack Smith's Report | Read full text

Firstpost  

In his report in the 2020 election subversion case, Special Counsel Jack Smith has said that Donald Trump would have been convicted if he were not elected as the President of the United States Former US President Donald Trump at the New York court during the hush money trial. AP Even though the 2020 election subversion case against US President-elect Donald Trump has been dropped, he has not been exonerated, said Special Counsel Jack Smith in a report released on Tuesday. Smith further said, “Indeed, but for Mr. Trump’s election and imminent return to the presidency, the office assessed that the admissible evidence was sufficient to obtain and sustain a conviction at trial.” The election subversion case relates to Trump’s failed attempt to illegally overturn the 2020 presidential election that outgoing US President Joe Biden won. Even though the Trump-incited assault on the US Capitol on January 6, 2021, is the starkest public memory of Trump’s campaign to overturn the 2020 election result, his efforts also included pressurising officials to state officials to commit fraud, pressurising the then-Vice President Mike Pence to illegally certify the election result in his favour, and the use of fraudulent electors to overturn the result.
