Special Counsel Jack Smith Revises Indictment on Trump 2020 Election Charges
Briefly

This new indictment specifically articulates that Trump acted as a private citizen rather than as a president, critically challenging the Supreme Court's decision on presidential immunity.
The updated indictment clarifies that the lawsuit filed in Georgia was made in Trump’s capacity as a candidate, not in his official presidential role, addressing Supreme Court concerns.
Jack Smith's approach in revising the indictment shows an adaptation to the Supreme Court's ruling, cleverly identifying the personal stakes Trump had in the election.
By removing claims of Trump's pressure on DoJ officials, the indictment narrows its focus but reinforces Smith's contention that the acts were executed outside official duties.
