Trump could use Supreme Court to save himself

 May 31, 2024

If you think that Donald Trump suffered anything close to a death blow when he was found guilty on 34 felony counts of falsified business records, then think again.

Trump is determined NOT to go to prison because he wants to save this country.

Conservative talk superstar Mark Levin recently laid out a very interesting plan for Trump to take a federal path to get this case to the Supreme Court.

Levin said that instead of Trump challenging this at the level the decision was made, the fact that the case has so much to do with the presidency of the entire nation, there's an argument to be made that this is actually a federal case.

In that scenario, the relatively conservative Supreme Court might be exactly what Donald Trump needs to save himself.

Levin said:

At issue is our federal voting system for president, the office of the presidency, and the ability of any local prosecutor to bring charges, even preposterous charges, against a presidential candidate. Appealing a guilty verdict through the state judicial process on, let's say, a guilty verdict on a state issue, would be understandable. But it does not address the more significant constitutional issue: what I will call reverse federalism, that is, the seizing of federal jurisdiction by a state.

This issue will not go away as other local and state prosecutors find political benefit in continuing this kind of lawfare. The entire poisonous effort must be addressed, and only the U.S. Supreme Court can do that.
