Donald Trump has become the first American president or former president to be indicted for a felony; thirty counts related to business fraud were filed on March 30 in New York by the Manhattan district attorney. Even more serious indictments are likely forthcoming from local prosecutors in Atlanta as well as federal officials at the Department of Justice. To lend context to this unprecedented legal and political drama, please join the American Academy in Berlin for a discussion with “Financial Times” US national editor and columnist Edward Luce, and former US attorney and deputy assistant attorney general Harry Litman. Moderated by Daniel Benjamin, president of the American Academy in Berlin.
