Jack Smith says the trial against the former Republican president will be quick. The prosecutor has not taken questions in a long-awaited and concise statement: he has barely spoken two and a half minutes at the Justice Department before retiring.
Smith wanted to respond to the criticism that Trump launched when, last night, he announced on social networks that he had been charged. With the capital letters, exclamations and outbursts that are usual to him, he had accused the officials who investigated him of corruption and partiality.
