Trump Braces for Serious Indictment in 2020 Election Probe

The Justice Department's special prosecutor is preparing to indict former President Donald Trump with serious charges related to the Jan. 6 insurrection, including defrauding the nation with fake electors, obstructing Congress, and inciting an insurrection. Legal scholars have analyzed potential charges, which could include conspiracy to defraud the United States, obstructing an official proceeding, and violating a law against rebellion. If indicted, Trump could face significant prison time, but legal scholars debate whether he would be disqualified from holding office. The indictment could be a breaking point for the Republican Party's support of Trump.
