The former special prosecutor is getting what is likely his best opportunity to challenge President Trump's assertion that he was persecuted for his politics.
Former special counsel Jack Smith will make the case before a large American audience for the first time on Thursday as to why he believes that Donald Trump committed fraud in his actions and statements after his 2020 election loss. The details could serve as a cautionary tale of what the president is capable of doing during the midterms later this year.
The appearance provides Mr. Smith with what is likely to be his best opportunity to challenge President Trump's assertion that he was persecuted for his politics, not for his misdeeds.
