Donald Trump’s legal calendar has started to clash with the race for the Republican presidential nomination next year, as the schedules for a string of civil cases and historic prosecutions start to fill in the backdrop of his comeback bid for the White House.
This week, prosecutors in Atlanta have given Trump until Friday to voluntarily surrender for charges included in a 41-count indictment that accused him and 18 others of operating as a “criminal organization” as they sought to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.
On Wednesday, Fox News will host a Republican presidential primary debate in Wisconsin, giving Trump opponents a platform and an opportunity to tee off on what the indictments say about his fitness to be the party’s nominee.
