WASHINGTON: Expressing frustration with the timing of the January 6 charges against him, former President Donald Trump directed his criticism towards Special Counsel Jack Smith in a post on Truth Social.

Shortly after Smith asked the Supreme Court to weigh in on the continuing election fraud case against the former president and determine if he could ever be found guilty, Trump made his remarks.



 

Donald Trump accuses Jack Smith of 'election interference'

The ex-President strongly criticized Smith and his team, demanding an explanation for the delayed charges against him.

"Why didn’t the Deranged Jack Smith 'Team' file their lawsuit 3 years ago? Because they wanted to file it right in the middle of my campaign, that’s why. Now, all of a sudden, they want to RUSH. ELECTION INTERFERENCE!," he wrote.

According to earlier reports from OK!, Trump also charged Smith with abusing the Supreme Court to "get a guilty plea."

The federal case against the former president revolves around his efforts to manipulate the 2020 election. Trump's legal team argues that as these activities were connected to his official presidential duties, he should be immune from prosecution.

Smith has petitioned the Supreme Court justices to determine whether Trump is immune to the emergency petition he filed. To proceed with the case's scheduled March 4 start date, the court has mandated that the special counsel must respond by December 20.
