Donald Trump faces revised US indictment in election subversion case

The revised federal indictment against Donald Trump accuses him of attempting to overturn his 2020 election loss, with prosecutors narrowing their approach after a US Supreme Court ruling granted former presidents broad immunity from criminal prosecution. The Supreme Court's 6-3 ruling on July 1 stated that Trump is immune from prosecution for actions within his constitutional powers as president. The revised indictment retains the same four charges against Trump as in the earlier version, but carves out descriptions of his alleged conduct. The indictment focuses on Trump's role as a political candidate seeking re-election, rather than as the president at the time. Trump has denied election interference allegations, but maintained his claim of widespread voter fraud in the 2020 election. The central charge remains the same: that Trump attempted to subvert the 2020 presidential election and overturn his loss to Joe Biden.
