TL;DR Summary

Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner warns of "danger dead ahead" after Donald Trump's latest legal motion, calling it a preview of his "dictatorial plans." Trump's legal team filed a motion seeking to have the federal case accusing him of attempting to overturn the 2020 election thrown out, claiming presidential immunity. The motion was rejected by Judge Tanya Chutkan, prompting Trump to file an appeal to the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. Legal experts criticize the move, with Kirschner calling it dangerous and Trump testing his ability to ignore court rulings. The appeal is likely to fail, but it could potentially delay the trial set for March 2024.
