Just as the contest for the 2024 presidential election is becoming heated, Donald Trump legal problems are getting worse. The former president, who is running for re-election, might be involved in up to six criminal and civil cases over the course of the upcoming year, including lawsuits brought against him, his family, and businesses.
The former president is most at risk from the four criminal indictments because they all carry the possibility of jail time. There are already five of those trials set. The trials, some of which might run for weeks, coincide with crucial primary election dates, raising concerns about the challenges and repercussions Trump will have to deal with as his 2024 campaign gets underway.
Beginning on January 15 in Iowa, GOP voters will select their nominee in a series of primaries. The Justice Department filed two charges, state prosecutors in Manhattan filed another, and most recently, prosecutors in Georgia filed a racketeering indictment against the former president and 18 co-defendants.

The Georgia case’s trial date is still uncertain. Early in March, a case initiated by Justice Department Special Counsel Jack Smith over suspected efforts to reverse the 2020 election results is anticipated to be the first criminal fraud trial that Trump will face.
In that instance, Smith claims Trump willfully promoted lies about the election being rigged for months in an effort to erode public confidence in the vote and maintain his position of power. The trial is set to begin the day before Super Tuesday, when 14 states, including California and Texas, which have a large number of delegates, hold their primaries.
According to the indictment, Trump was accused of conspiring to defraud the US, hinder an official investigation, and interfere with the right to vote and have that vote counted. As a result of his lack of a criminal history, Trump would probably receive significantly less time in prison if found guilty of the charges than the maximum 20 years.
