John —
Donald Trump is now the first American president convicted of a crime. Even at a time of divisive politics and rampant misinformation ahead of a critical election, the smooth trial process shows — independent of the outcome — the U.S. justice system can still work, even with a powerful defendant.
But full accountability seems far off. The federal courts, including the Supreme Court, have stalled Trump’s prosecution for trying to overthrow the 2020 election and for misuse of classified documents and obstruction of justice. His defense in the hush-money trial, including accusations of lies and political motivations, could serve as a blueprint in Trump’s other cases. As loud voices compete to undermine trust in the criminal prosecution of a former president, this moment calls for expert interpretation and explanation.
Join law professors and MSNBC legal analysts Joyce Vance and Paul Butler with Brennan Center President Michael Waldman and Justice Program Senior Director Lauren-Brooke Eisen virtually on Monday, June 3, at 3 p.m. ET for a live discussion on the trial’s outcome — and its implications.
