Trump's Lawyers Seek Delay in Trial Over Classified Documents, Citing Campaign Timing

Donald Trump's lawyers have requested a U.S. federal judge to consider the timing of his trial on charges of mishandling classified documents, citing his presidential campaign. Trump's lawyer argued that the case could be seen as the "two leading contenders for president of the United States squaring off in court." The judge did not set a trial date but expressed skepticism about a December start and rejected Trump's request for an indefinite delay. The charges against Trump include violations of the Espionage Act, and he could face up to 20 years in prison if convicted.
