Former President Donald Trump Indicted by Special Counsel Jack Smith, GOP Rivals Quick to Characterize Charges as “Weaponization” of Justice Department

Special Counsel Jack Smith has indicted former President Donald Trump on four counts related to his alleged attempts to overturn the 2020 election results. Several of Trump's GOP rivals have used the indictment to call into question his fitness for office and to urge him to step away from the campaign, while Trump remains the clear front-runner in the Republican presidential primary. Asa Hutchinson, a former congressman and former Arkansas governor, has said that now the system of justice will determine whether Trump is criminally responsible.
