Donald Trump has requested a U.S. judge to postpone the start of his criminal trial regarding the mishandling of classified documents until after the 2024 presidential election. This move comes as Trump aims to make a return to the presidency. Both U.S. prosecutors and Trump's defense team are proposing alternative dates for the trial, with prosecutors suggesting July 8, likely after the Supreme Court's decision on Trump's claim of presidential immunity. Trump's legal team argues that a fair trial cannot be conducted this year due to the ongoing presidential campaign. A key hearing in Florida, presided over by Judge Cannon in Ft Pierce, is set to determine the trial's timeline, with Trump's lawyers pushing for a start date of August 12. The hearing, attended by Trump, is crucial as it may affect his legal schedule ahead of the 2024 election.
