Trump indicted for election meddling and blocking power transfer<br /><br />Donald Trump is charged with serious crimes on Tuesday, Aug. 1, 2023, for trying to overturn the 2020 election results and blocking the peaceful transfer of power to the new president. The indictment sheds light on a dark period when he spread lies about the poll's outcome, leading to a violent riot at the Capitol. Even after the chaos, he continued to delay the vote counting. This is a significant moment as it's the first time a former president is facing legal consequences for undermining democracy. Despite facing multiple legal challenges, Trump remains a leading contender for the Republican presidential nomination next year.<br /><br />PHOTOS BY AP<br /><br />Subscribe to The Manila Times Channel - https://tmt.ph/YTSubscribe<br /><br />Visit our website at https://www.manilatimes.net<br /><br />Follow us:<br />Facebook - https://tmt.ph/facebook<br />Instagram - https://tmt.ph/instagram<br />Twitter - https://tmt.ph/twitter<br />DailyMotion - https://tmt.ph/dailymotion<br /><br />Subscribe to our Digital Edition - https://tmt.ph/digital<br /><br />Check out our Podcasts:<br />Spotify - https://tmt.ph/spotify<br />Apple Podcasts - https://tmt.ph/applepodcasts<br />Amazon Music - https://tmt.ph/amazonmusic<br />Deezer: https://tmt.ph/deezer<br />Stitcher: https://tmt.ph/stitcher<br />Tune In: https://tmt.ph/tunein<br /><br />#TheManilaTimes<br />#DailyNews<br />#Trump<br />#Election<br />#Republican<br />#President<br />#Capitol
