Trump is playing for time for the US election: the process should be postponed to 2025. Trump's lawyers are again trying to postpone the trial until after the next US presidential election, in which Trump is the Republican frontrunner.
If Trump wins the election and takes office facing one of his two federal trials, he could try to appoint an attorney general to drop the charges. Justice Department policy generally prohibits criminal prosecution of a sitting president. Trump is indicted in Florida on dozens of counts alleging he mishandled classified information after the end of his presidency.
