Sharing is caring!<\/p>\n

To date, Donald Trump has been indicted four times by Democrat prosecutors. A New York DA has hit him with charges, the DOJ\u2019s special counsel has hit him with two indictments, and a Democrat out of Georgia has charged him and several other former Trump allies.<\/p>\n

Many critics have weighed in on the Georgia case. Some have accused the Democrat prosecutor of trying to make a name for herself. Only in Georgia did prosecutors take Trump\u2019s mugshot\u2013and quickly release it to the press. But this Democrat DA\u2019s office might be robbed of their prize, if this Trump move is successful.<\/p>\n

From The Post Millennial:<\/p>\n

On Thursday, Donald Trump informed Georgia Superior Court judge Scott McAfee that he was potentially planning on moving his election interference case out of the state into federal court\u2026<\/p>\n

\u201cPresident Trump hereby notifies the Court that he may seek removal of his prosecution to federal court under 28 U.S.C. \u00a7\u00a7 1442 & 1455,\u201d attorney Steven Sadow wrote in a notice to McAfee\u2026<\/p>\n

If the move is granted, Trump may be able to invoke immunity protections for federal officials, according to CNN.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is very interesting. Donald Trump has informed the judge presiding over this Georgia case that he might seek removal of this case to federal court. The implications of such a move could be significant. But one might be it will give him the power to invoke immunity protections for federal offices\u2013which might include himself.<\/p>\n

The Democrat DA has charged Trump associates, claiming they colluded with the former president to \u201coverturn\u201d the state\u2019s election results. But if the case is moved to a federal court, these defendants could be shielded.<\/p>\n

The argument might be made that they were executing their duties, on the suspicion that voter fraud undermined Georgia\u2019s election process. Trump maintains that he won the 2020 Election, but was the victim of widespread fraud.<\/p>\n

The prosecution\u2019s case\u2013as well as the federal case against him\u2013hinges on whether Trump truly believed he lost and was breaking the law.<\/p>\n

If this case is moved to a federal court, it will deprive the state DA of her chance at prosecuting Trump. And if convicted, a future President Trump could pardon himself and his allies.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unclear if Trump will make such a move, nor do we know if the Georgia court will allow it. But this is a new twist in a case that has confounded even the sharpest legal minds.<\/p>\n
