  • President-elect Donald Trump's choice to be the government's top lawyer before the Supreme Court burst on the national scene about a year ago and is best known for winning Trump immunity from prosecution for election subversion.

The article from CNN, published on December 18, 2024, profiles John Sauer, who has been appointed as Donald Trump's solicitor general. Sauer, previously a law clerk for Justice Antonin Scalia, has a reputation for his conservative legal philosophy and his deep understanding of constitutional law. His appointment comes at a critical time as Trump faces multiple legal challenges, including election-related cases and investigations into his business practices. Sauer's role involves arguing cases before the Supreme Court, where his experience and conservative credentials are expected to be advantageous. The article highlights Sauer's past legal battles, his approach to the law, and how his appointment might influence Trump's legal strategy moving forward. It also touches on the broader implications of having a solicitor general with such a distinct ideological bent during a highly polarized political climate.
