“When the hell are these Trump cases going to happen?” That’s the question we’re all asking as we wait and wait for a real, live Donald Trump courtroom trial.
On this week’s Inside the Hive, host Brian Stelter, Vanity Fair politics correspondent Bess Levin, and staff writer Dan Adler examine the many criminal charges against the former president and presumptive GOP nominee. They also reflect on Trump’s decades-long go-to legal strategy of invoking delay tactics to avoid legal repercussions and what that could mean for the 2024 election and beyond.
The group discusses the details of the four indictments, including the Manhattan “hush money” case involving Stormy Daniels, the classified-documents case involving Mar-a-Lago, and the two federal election cases involving the DOJ and Fulton County. They also consider whether the tone of a case featuring the contents of a 2005 Access Hollywood tape will come across as an embarrassing, scandalous tabloid story for the former president or a technical, financial case, as a new poll from Politico and Ipsos of American adults, conducted March 8–10, found that 50% of respondents said they believe Trump is guilty of the alleged crimes charged in Manhattan.
It’s anyone’s guess if and when these trials actually happen, but if Trump is reelected, it’s likely game over for the federal cases. And if Trump goes scot-free, it’s unclear what impact it will have on the justice system.
