Author’s note: This is part three of a three-part series in which we try playing out what happens to lawfare — the criminal and civil cases against former president Donald Trump brought by the Biden-Harris Justice Department and state Democratic prosecutors, as well as other legal gambits by which Democrats may continue trying to forestall or derail a Trump presidency — in the event that Trump is elected president in November. Here are parts one and two.
In the two previous installments of this series, we explored how congressional Democrats may try to block Donald Trump from taking office if he wins next week’s presidential election, how the pending state cases against Trump may shake out during a Trump presidency, and what is likely to become of Biden-Harris DOJ special counsel Jack Smith’s Mar-a-Lago documents prosecution of Trump in Florida. Today, we’ll look at the most complex and potentially explosive of the pending anti-Trump lawfare cases: Smith’s prosecution of Trump in Washington, D.C., on three felony counts of attempting to corruptly undo the 2020 election — the so-called J6 case.
