New York fraud lawsuit adds court-sized complication to possible Trump 2024 plans
WASHINGTON Now that the New York attorney general sued Donald Trump for fraud, one thing seems nearer certainty: If Trump runs for president again in 2024, he will do so while defending himself in a court of law.
Maybe several courts of law.
The long-running panoply of investigations into Trump over his business practices, his handling of classified information, his efforts to overturn his election loss in 2020, and his role in the insurrection of Jan. 6, 2021 will burden any 2024 presidential run by the former chief executive, analysts said.
New York Attorney General Letitia James' suit while a civil matter rather than a criminal one takes things a step further than those other probes: It is the most definitive sign yet that Trump could be pulled into court while running for president, an unprecedented position for a major party candidate.
