Following a unique course of action by Special Counsel Jack Smith, Former President Donald Trump expressed strong disapproval. Deviating from traditional procedure, Smith petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to rule on the applicability of presidential immunity in a case surrounding the 2020 election. This move sparked reactions from the ex-president, who condemned Smith's actions in a public statement on Truth Social.

The crux of the matter falls on Smith’s decision to sidestep the federal appeals court and directly approach the nation's highest authority to determine whether the former president can exercise total immunity from federal prosecution. This relates to alleged illicit efforts to alter the outcomes of the previous election while he was in office.

Trump took to the social forum on Wednesday, criticizing Smith. He described him as a ‘maladjusted’ prosecutor, a 'Biden appointee' who has a history of overstepping boundaries and rushing important legal issues, such as the question of Presidential Immunity. Trump argued that such immunity is elemental to American democracy and thus its applicability should be a given.

In the spotlight is the federal trial set to commence in March of 2024. In Smith's official documents, there is significant emphasis on the necessity of speedy and decisive action by the Supreme Court on the issue regarding immunity. The timing of the federal trial, in which Trump has staunchly proclaimed his innocence by pleading not guilty on four counts, is also a matter of keen interest for the former president.

Trump staunchly maintains his innocence and has long contended that any criminal investigations against him are politically motivated attempts to destabilize his possible 2024 run. He accuses Smith of trying to leverage the Supreme Court to hinder his potential candidacy in the upcoming presidential elections.
