Donald Trump has vowed to fire Special Counsel Jack Smith immediately if re-elected, as stated in an interview with conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt. Smith has brought two federal indictments against Trump, related to efforts to overturn the 2020 election and mishandling classified documents. Trump's remarks suggest he believes firing Smith would not lead to impeachment, despite the legal complexities involved in removing a special counsel. Smith's appointment and the cases against Trump have faced multiple legal challenges, with Trump allies questioning Smith's legitimacy. Trump also praised Judge Aileen Cannon, who dismissed Smith's classified documents case against him, and criticized the justice system as being weaponized against him. The broader implications of firing Smith include potential impacts on ongoing investigations and prosecutions against Trump.
