Donald Trump's legal team is considering using the recent Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) opinion to challenge the New York hush money criminal verdict on appeal. A source familiar with the matter revealed that Trump's team believes the SCOTUS ruling could be leveraged to contest portions of Hope Hicks' testimony and some tweets that were presented as evidence during the trial.
The source further disclosed that the Trump team views the SCOTUS opinion as a significant win. They intend to utilize it not only to seek the dismissal of charges but also to potentially exclude evidence related to official acts in all cases, not just federal ones. This strategic move could undermine prosecutors' ability to substantiate the remaining charges.
