Donald Trump has been charged with conspiring to overturn the US election result in 2020.

The four counts include an attempt to defraud the 2020 election through dishonesty, fraud, and deceit. The charges follow an inquiry into the riots in Washington DC on 6 January 2021. Trump is accused of "spreading lies" about election fraud for more than two months.

In total, Trump has now been charged in three criminal cases - but experts say the latest could be the most serious. The other cases relate to the mishandling of secret documents, and payments to Stormy Daniels, a former porn star.

Despite the criminal cases, Trump is the favourite to be the Republican candidate in the 2024 election.

Today's Chris Mason speaks to Renato Mariotti, a former federal prosecutor, Sebastian Gorka, a former strategist to President Trump and host of the US radio programme America First, and Joe Walsh, who's a former Republican Congressman, and who broke rank with his party over Donald Trump in the 2020 election.
