Former President Donald Trump had pleaded not guilty to charges that he and allies tried to overturn the 2020 presidential election in Georgia.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump gives a thumbs up as he arrives at Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport on August 24, 2023 in Atlanta. Following entering a plea of not guilty and waiving his first appearance in Fulton County on Thursday morning, former President Trump and is team are now asking for his case to be severed from his co-defendants.
Trump entered a plea of not guilty on charges he and his allies participated in an illegal scheme to overturn the 2020 presidential election in Georgia earlier in the day. After posting a bond of $200,000, the former president headed back to the airport for his return flight home to New Jersey, flashing a thumbs-up through the window of his sport utility vehicle as his motorcade left. Unrepentant but subdued after the brief jail visit, he again insisted that he "did nothing wrong" and called the case accusing him of subverting election results a "travesty of justice.
