How Trump’s indictment could impact White House race FMTNews FMTWorld
Donald Trump’s political rivals hope he will be taken out of the presidential race by further indictments in the coming months.
“It likely won’t sway undecided voters but it will galvanise Trump supporters who might be wavering or looking to a candidate with less baggage,” Matt Shoemaker, a national security analyst and former intelligence officer, told AFP. But he would have little influence over state-level cases and his more immediate worry is the damage his legal woes could do to his campaign to win the Republican nomination in the first place.The latest indictment allows Trump’s primary challengers – Florida governor Ron DeSantis, former vice-president Mike Pence and others – to level the criticism that the runaway frontrunner is unfit for office.
“They are hoping Trump is eventually knocked out of the race by a series of indictments, including those concerning Jan 6 and the attempt to overturn the election,” said University of Virginia political scientist Larry Sabato.
