Details of petitions and court decision
Donald Trump’s defense emphasized that the charges against the politician should be dropped.
Lawyers presented the following argument: during the storming of the Capitol, the former head of the White House had presidential immunity.
In addition, the petition also mentioned constitutional rights.
Despite all the arguments, the American judiciary decided not in favor of Donald Trump.
The court concluded that in speaking to supporters nearly two years ago, the then-President of the United States “acted in his personal capacity.”
