WASHINGTON With the U.S. Supreme Courts decision to take up Donald Trump s claim that he is immune from prosecution for his coup attempt, the former president and near certain Republican presidential nominee could be spending every weekday of the campaigns final month sitting in a Washington, D.C., courtroom.

Instead of visiting key states like Michigan, Wisconsin and Georgia, where his efforts to regain the White House will likely be decided, Trump might instead be sitting before U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, listening to his former aides testify about his attempt to overturn his 2020 election loss.

Instead of long speeches at rallies, Trumps campaigning could primarily consist of his signature rants about election interference and a witch hunt as he stands outside the E. Barrett Prettyman Federal Court House just blocks from the U.S. Capitol, which a mob of his followers attacked on Jan. 6, 2021, as part of his last-ditch attempt to retain power.

Youre going to have the spectacle of his former officials, one after the other, day after day, testifying about what he did, said George Conway , a conservative lawyer who worked on the civil lawsuit that led to former President Bill Clintons impeachment and, more recently, helped writer E. Jean Carroll sue Trump for sexually abusing and defaming her.

Whether such a scenario would help Trump or hurt him is unclear. Trumps campaign aides did not respond to HuffPost queries, but much of his 2024 campaign has already been based on his supposed victimhood at the hands of the deep state, and it has let him glide toward winning the nomination over a field of rivals.

And whether the October trial scenario comes to pass depends entirely on how quickly the Supreme Court justices issue their ruling after the scheduled oral arguments on April 22.
