Washington:

Former US president Donald Trump reacted angrily Monday to a court allocating March 4 next year for his federal election conspiracy trial, complaining that the timing amounted to “Election Interference.”

Trump, who is accused of leading a criminal conspiracy to overturn his 2020 defeat, posted that prosecutors had deliberately slow-walked their investigation “to bring it smack in the middle of Crooked Joe Biden’s Political Opponent’s campaign against him. Election Interference!”
