It now appears that Donald Trump, a criminal mastermind who has spent decades evading serious responsibility for his behavior, may finally have met his match. The doubly-indicted ex-president — with a third and fourth indictment likely to follow soon — now faces multiple felony trials and criminal investigations across the country for violations of the Espionage Act, financial fraud and other serious crimes connected with his attempts to overturn the 2020 election.
Last week Trump confirmed that the Department of Justice has sent him a "target letter" indicating that special counsel Jack Smith may soon charge him with defrauding the United States and "deprivation of rights under color of law" in connection with the Jan. 6 coup plot. Trump also faces potential charges related to tampering with witnesses and "obstruction of an official proceeding."
