Prosecutor shows why Trump's D.C. trial will go down 'well before' 2024 election

Donald Trump's recent Supreme Court victory, which saw the high court refusing to expedite review of the former president's arguments that he's immune from prosecution in the D.C. election subversion case, won't stop him from being tried "well before" the 2024 election, a Florida prosecutor said Monday.

State Attorney for Palm Beach County Dave Aronberg on Christmas day appeared on MSNBC's Richard Lui Reports, where he was asked about the rejection Special Counsel Jack Smith saw at the Supreme Court when he asked to leapfrog another appeals court. Aronberg began by suggesting Trump was attempting to put himself above the law, and make himself a "king," by seeking presidential immunity in the criminal matter.

"The only loss for Jack Smith has been at the Supreme Court when the Supreme Court said no, we're not going to big foot the District of Columbia Court of Appeals to intervene, we'll let them to do it," Aronberg said, adding what he believes will happen at the lower appeals court.

"But I think that is okay because the appellate court will rule for Jack Smith and then the Supreme Court may well say we won't even hear this case," he added. "So I think that this trial will happen well before the 2024 election."
