Special Counsel Jack Smith has filed a superseding indictment against former President Donald Trump in light of a recent Supreme Court ruling regarding presidential immunity. The new indictment maintains the same four felony charges as the original but frames Trump's actions as those of a private citizen rather than as president, a strategic move to comply with the high court's ruling. Legal experts have described this approach as 'slick' and 'smart,' as it seeks to navigate the complexities introduced by the ruling that could protect presidential conduct from prosecution. However, Trump's defense team is likely to argue that the new indictment is merely a rehash of the old charges. Additionally, some commentators suggest Smith's goal may involve pre-election maneuvers to hold a hearing on presidential immunity. Ultimately, the viability of the new indictment will depend on whether it avoids the pitfalls outlined by the Supreme Court regarding presidential immunity in official acts.
