Donald Trump's criminal hush money case should be dismissed because it "threatens the functioning" of the U.S. government, Trump's attorneys argue in a new filing.
In a recent legal filing, former President Donald Trump has requested a New York judge to dismiss the criminal case against him related to hush money payments, citing a potential precedent set by President Joe Biden's possible pardon of his son, Hunter Biden. Trump's lawyers argue that if Biden can consider pardoning his son for tax and gun charges, then Trump should also be shielded from prosecution for similar reasons, claiming political motivation behind the charges against him. This argument comes as Trump faces 34 felony counts of falsifying business records, stemming from payments made to silence claims of extramarital affairs during his 2016 presidential campaign. The filing suggests that the case against Trump is an example of "selective prosecution," where legal actions are politically motivated rather than based on legal merit.
