Verdict: Unverifiable (8% confidence)
No documented evidence was found in the search results attributing this specific claim — that Trump abused presidential powers by inviting a foreign nation to intervene in the 2020 election — to Judge Andrew Napolitano in Newsweek or any other outlet. While U.S. intelligence assessments documented foreign influence operations targeting the 2020 election, those sources attributed the operations to independent foreign actors and did not indicate a U.S. presidential invitation of such interference.
