Special counsel Jack Smith emphasized that his team defended the rule of law while investigating Donald Trump's attempts to overturn the 2020 election results, asserting that this deceit was used as a weapon against democracy.
The report highlights Trump's efforts as not only frantic but ultimately ineffective, noting that his attempts to undermine the election threatened the established peaceful transfer of power that has been a cornerstone of democracy in the U.S.
With the prosecution barred due to Trump's electoral victory, the report serves as a final account of a troubling episode in American history, capturing the Justice Department's extensive concerns about the implications of Trump's actions.
The Justice Department maintains a clear stance: sitting presidents cannot be prosecuted for federal crimes. This affirmation is not contingent on the crime's severity or the evidence available.
