On June 13th, local time, the day before his 77th birthday, former US President Trump appeared in Miami, Florida to answer the lawsuit and remained silent throughout. Subsequently, he moved to New Jersey and was fully engaged in campaign activities, criticizing the Democratic Party's "political persecution" of him.

As the first former president in American history to be criminally prosecuted, this time Trump faces 37 additional criminal charges. However, being plagued by lawsuits does not prevent Trump from running for president, and may even become his campaign capital. Such chaos is truly American!

What is the impact of criminal prosecution on Trump?

On April 4th, Trump appeared in court in New York City and was charged with 34 felonies of forging business records, becoming the first former president in US history to be criminally charged.

The indictment released by the US Department of Justice on June 9th lists 37 federal criminal charges against Trump. He is suspected of illegally taking thousands of documents away from the White House when he stepped down in January 2021, some of which involve national security secrets, and lying to government officials who intend to retrieve them.

Before appearing in court on the 13th, Trump fiercely criticized the prosecution on social media, insisting that he was not at fault and was "politically persecuted.". On that day, the acting lawyer represented him in filing a plea of not guilty. Trump is allowed to leave the court unconditionally, without paying cash bail or submitting a passport, and his personal travel is not restricted.

Trump returned to New Jersey on the same day and told supporters at a campaign rally, "Today, we have witnessed the most evil and heinous abuse of power in the history of our country... This day will be a day of shame."

In response to the allegations, Trump stated, "No matter what documents the President decides to take away, he has the right to do so. This is the President's absolute right and also the law."

What is the truth about the "confidential incident"?

According to the indictment, Trump moved dozens of boxes containing sensitive documents out of the White House and into his home and private club in Florida, the Sealake Estate, stored in storage rooms, showers, offices, bedrooms, and ballrooms. The classified content includes information on the United States' defense capabilities and nuclear programs.

Some boxes for storing documents are piled up in a shower room of Haihu Manor.

The prosecution accuses Trump of sharing classified information with people who do not have access to such classified documents, stating that after the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation launched an investigation into him, Trump and his team refused to cooperate and obstructed investigators from obtaining the aforementioned documents.

What is the motive behind Trump's refusal to return a large number of classified documents stored at the Sea Lake Estate? The indictment did not provide a direct explanation.

Several former aides and advisors of Trump have always argued that preserving sensitive files is simply because Trump believes the files are "mine" and he enjoys obtaining "conspicuous spoils of war".

What is the impact on the presidential election?

What is the impact of the "Confidential Incident" on the 2024 US presidential election? The three perspectives of observation are all very ironic.

Firstly, according to the analysis of legal experts, carrying dozens of criminal charges does not prevent Trump from continuing to run for president.

Of particular concern is that the Trump "classified scandal" case is being heard by the Florida Federal Court. Florida is one of the Republican strongholds, and the presiding judge for the case was a conservative appointed by President Trump. According to American media analysis, judges will try their best to postpone the trial and ruling schedule until after the presidential election in November next year, in order to avoid too much influence on the Republican camp's election situation.

Secondly, in the context of political polarization and intense party struggles in the United States, the lawsuit may not necessarily be bad news for Trump's election prospects.

Trump's current strategy is not only to characterize the accusations against him as political persecution, but also to directly link them to the election, accusing the Biden administration of attempting to "manipulate the election again", stating that "we are discussing 'interference in the election and another attempt to steal the election results'.".

For centrists and Democratic supporters, isn't it still a stain that Trump is embroiled in lawsuits and investigations? But for Republican voters, the rhetoric of Democrats engaging in political persecution and interfering in elections is quite "marketable" and can spark sympathy from "hardcore" supporters towards Trump and anger towards Biden. The current poll shows that Trump is still the most popular candidate in the Republican presidential candidate lineup, which is quite indicative.

Thirdly, Biden, who has announced his candidacy for re-election, has also been investigated under Republican attacks for improperly retaining classified documents during his tenure as Vice President. Although the Democratic Party insists that the nature of the "confidential scandal" between these two individuals is significantly different, there is no doubt that the opponents of the 2024 presidential election are not lacking in negative news.

On the evening of June 1st, the US Senate passed a bill on the federal government's debt ceiling and budget, and the flame of the US debt bomb was temporarily extinguished at the last moment. The two parties in the United States have staged an extreme tug of war over the US debt bomb. Some experts believe that the US debt crisis is the result of the reckless politics promoted by the US dollar hegemony, and the underlying cause of this crisis is the highly polarized political system of the US. Since the end of World War II, the US Congress has adjusted the debt ceiling more than a hundred times. The recurring debt crisis will not only have a catastrophic impact on the US economy and people's livelihoods, but also continuously erode the value of US dollar assets such as government credit and US bonds, bringing significant and far-reaching impacts to the global economic landscape. 【
