The former president is kicking off his 2024 campaign as Special Counsel Jack Smith continues the investigation into his handling of classified documents.
Donald Trump will travel to South Carolina on Saturday for the first official rally of his 2024 campaign in what could be a key weekend for the former president.
Trump will first visit New Hampshire, a key early voting state in the presidential primaries, where he will speak at the annual meeting of the state’s Republican Party in Salem.
The trip comes as Special Counsel Jack Smith continues his investigation into Trump’s handling of classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida.
Smith, a career prosecutor, was appointed by Attorney General Merrick Garland to weigh whether charges should be brought. Trump has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and criticized the Department of Justice for an FBI search of the property on August 8, 2020.
