🧵 1. Georgia indictment: How will Trump defend himself in fraud case? Legal experts say it boils down to whether he knowingly broke the law, regardless of reasoning. #politics

Sort:  

🧵 2. Former federal prosecutor explains: Believing you have the right to do something doesn't justify fraudulent activity. Trump's defense relies on intent.

🧵 3. Trump indicted for 4th time, accused of conspiring to change 2020 election results. Charges include racketeering, false statements, and soliciting violation of oath.

🧵 4. Trump denies wrongdoing, claims indictment is partisan effort to suppress people's choice. His lawyers may argue protected speech under the First Amendment.

🧵 5. Trump's legal defense could hinge on lack of knowledge of breaking the law, needing just one holdout juror for a mistrial. Political motivations may be claimed.
