WEBVTT - Buck Brief - Trump's Reelection Hinges on This

0:00:11.697 --> 0:00:14.777
<v Speaker 1>You're listening to the Buck Sexton Show podcast. Let make

0:00:14.777 --> 0:00:17.697
<v Speaker 1>sure you subscribe to the podcast on the iHeartRadio app

0:00:17.897 --> 0:00:21.337
<v Speaker 1>or wherever you get your podcasts. Welcome to the Buck Brief.

0:00:21.497 --> 0:00:26.377
<v Speaker 1>This may determine the twenty twenty four election. This could

0:00:26.377 --> 0:00:32.617
<v Speaker 1>be the entirety of whether Trump wins or loses. And

0:00:32.737 --> 0:00:35.577
<v Speaker 1>it has nothing to do with votes. It has everything

0:00:35.617 --> 0:00:40.857
<v Speaker 1>to do with the legal system and its abuse by

0:00:40.937 --> 0:00:45.657
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats. In this case, the Jack Smith Special Council.

0:00:46.457 --> 0:00:52.897
<v Speaker 1>Trump's team has as of Monday this week, reached out

0:00:52.977 --> 0:00:58.897
<v Speaker 1>with an effort to have the Supreme Court intervene with

0:00:59.177 --> 0:01:05.417
<v Speaker 1>a stay on the Circuit Court's decision based upon the

0:01:05.777 --> 0:01:09.337
<v Speaker 1>District Court in DC decision. Now, this can be messy,

0:01:10.577 --> 0:01:14.377
<v Speaker 1>so I want to boil this down to its simplest parts. First,

0:01:15.457 --> 0:01:20.577
<v Speaker 1>what's going on here is two things simultaneously. A fight

0:01:20.857 --> 0:01:25.577
<v Speaker 1>over the timing of all of this. One side trying

0:01:25.577 --> 0:01:28.977
<v Speaker 1>to speed it up Jack Smith, the other side trying

0:01:28.977 --> 0:01:32.297
<v Speaker 1>to slow it down Trump and his team. That's essential.

0:01:33.057 --> 0:01:36.217
<v Speaker 1>And also this usually would be the main thing, but

0:01:36.257 --> 0:01:38.737
<v Speaker 1>in this case it's not. And I'll explain why. A

0:01:38.977 --> 0:01:43.897
<v Speaker 1>fight over the constitutional merits of the Trump position about

0:01:44.017 --> 0:01:49.417
<v Speaker 1>immunity Now let's start, because this is really important. The

0:01:49.457 --> 0:01:52.377
<v Speaker 1>timing will determine whether this gets to trial or not.

0:01:52.977 --> 0:01:57.057
<v Speaker 1>If it doesn't get to trial before the election, then

0:01:57.217 --> 0:02:00.777
<v Speaker 1>it obviously can't impact the election the way that the

0:02:00.817 --> 0:02:04.417
<v Speaker 1>Democrats wanted to. So the stakes here could not be higher.

0:02:04.937 --> 0:02:08.417
<v Speaker 1>They think, if they can get a conviction of Donald

0:02:08.417 --> 0:02:12.057
<v Speaker 1>Trump on the January SI case, they could have Biden

0:02:12.097 --> 0:02:13.977
<v Speaker 1>at the top of the ticket, Commal at the top

0:02:13.977 --> 0:02:15.737
<v Speaker 1>of the ticket, or someone else at the top of

0:02:15.777 --> 0:02:20.257
<v Speaker 1>the Democrat ticket, it won't matter. They will win. That

0:02:20.417 --> 0:02:23.297
<v Speaker 1>is their fundamental belief, and some of the polls that

0:02:23.337 --> 0:02:27.857
<v Speaker 1>we have seen show that they could be right, certainly

0:02:27.897 --> 0:02:30.617
<v Speaker 1>in a Biden v. Trump matchup, if Trump is convicted.

0:02:30.857 --> 0:02:33.857
<v Speaker 1>Specifically in the j sixth case Atlanta, that case is

0:02:33.897 --> 0:02:36.897
<v Speaker 1>falling apart New York. That case is a joke. Florida.

0:02:36.937 --> 0:02:39.137
<v Speaker 1>That case doesn't look like it's going to get to trial,

0:02:39.177 --> 0:02:42.497
<v Speaker 1>although there's been some pre trial motions about that this

0:02:42.617 --> 0:02:46.457
<v Speaker 1>week or motion around that I should say this week.

0:02:46.497 --> 0:02:50.697
<v Speaker 1>But let's get first back to this central issue of

0:02:50.777 --> 0:02:53.777
<v Speaker 1>the timing of the immunity claim. So here's what we know.

0:02:54.137 --> 0:02:57.777
<v Speaker 1>The district court, right, so the lowest level federal Court

0:02:57.857 --> 0:03:03.097
<v Speaker 1>in DC found against Trump, right, So then he appealed

0:03:03.097 --> 0:03:05.857
<v Speaker 1>it to the Circuit court, which is the appeals court

0:03:06.217 --> 0:03:11.217
<v Speaker 1>Circuit Court of DC, and the Circuit court also found

0:03:11.857 --> 0:03:16.457
<v Speaker 1>against Trump. Now, what the Circuit Court has said is

0:03:17.457 --> 0:03:22.297
<v Speaker 1>we want the district Court to be able to enact

0:03:22.577 --> 0:03:26.417
<v Speaker 1>its will here, which would mean bringing the case against

0:03:26.457 --> 0:03:30.577
<v Speaker 1>Donald Trump. So they're trying to speed this up, right,

0:03:31.377 --> 0:03:34.337
<v Speaker 1>and the Trump team has responded by saying, hold on

0:03:34.377 --> 0:03:37.977
<v Speaker 1>a second, I need the Supreme Court to issue a

0:03:38.217 --> 0:03:43.337
<v Speaker 1>stay on the Circuit court s toff, I give this

0:03:43.377 --> 0:03:46.817
<v Speaker 1>all straight, so that the Circuit Court's order that the

0:03:46.857 --> 0:03:50.817
<v Speaker 1>District Court can go forward is on hold. So they

0:03:50.857 --> 0:03:55.217
<v Speaker 1>cannot proceed with the trial until we have a chance

0:03:55.257 --> 0:03:58.857
<v Speaker 1>to get two things, an en banc hearing meaning all

0:03:58.977 --> 0:04:05.257
<v Speaker 1>the Circuit Court judges hear this, and a Supreme Court

0:04:05.777 --> 0:04:11.657
<v Speaker 1>decision on whether or not this immunity claim is valid.

0:04:11.777 --> 0:04:14.617
<v Speaker 1>And therefore the whole you know, this whole component of

0:04:14.977 --> 0:04:17.537
<v Speaker 1>the effort to get Trump goes away. Effect of the

0:04:17.617 --> 0:04:20.657
<v Speaker 1>JA six trial is null and void because Trump has

0:04:20.737 --> 0:04:24.937
<v Speaker 1>immunity from these claims. Now here's how they write about it.

0:04:24.977 --> 0:04:27.297
<v Speaker 1>The court should stay. This is the Trump team writing,

0:04:27.297 --> 0:04:30.657
<v Speaker 1>and the decision which I just read through. Uh, the court,

0:04:30.857 --> 0:04:33.897
<v Speaker 1>I should say, sorry, it's not a decision, it's the

0:04:33.937 --> 0:04:37.777
<v Speaker 1>Trump team. Uh, in the process of trying to get

0:04:37.897 --> 0:04:41.217
<v Speaker 1>a stay, an application for the stay of the mandate

0:04:41.257 --> 0:04:43.657
<v Speaker 1>to be issued by the United States Court of Appeals

0:04:43.697 --> 0:04:47.097
<v Speaker 1>for the District of Columbia Circuit. Okay, so they are

0:04:47.177 --> 0:04:51.697
<v Speaker 1>asking for a stop. Trump's team, they're asking the Supreme

0:04:51.737 --> 0:04:56.257
<v Speaker 1>Court to put a stop on the DC Circuit court

0:04:56.697 --> 0:05:01.017
<v Speaker 1>saying that the District court can go forward. So see

0:05:01.017 --> 0:05:04.177
<v Speaker 1>how all these pieces are moving in together. And here's

0:05:04.257 --> 0:05:07.297
<v Speaker 1>what they want. The court should stay. This is from

0:05:07.497 --> 0:05:10.457
<v Speaker 1>this application for a stay. The Court should stay the

0:05:10.537 --> 0:05:15.777
<v Speaker 1>d C Circuits mandate pending resolution of President Trump's petition

0:05:15.937 --> 0:05:21.337
<v Speaker 1>for cerciorari in this court. Essentially, you gotta hold off

0:05:21.337 --> 0:05:25.217
<v Speaker 1>on that to see if the writ of cert gets granted,

0:05:25.257 --> 0:05:28.017
<v Speaker 1>meaning the Supreme Court says we will hear this. So

0:05:28.097 --> 0:05:30.577
<v Speaker 1>put a pause on all the trial stuff in DC

0:05:31.017 --> 0:05:33.497
<v Speaker 1>until the Supreme Court says whether or not they will

0:05:33.537 --> 0:05:38.337
<v Speaker 1>hear it. Also their request, as additional relief, President Trump

0:05:38.337 --> 0:05:41.497
<v Speaker 1>requests this court stay the DC Circuits mandate for the

0:05:41.537 --> 0:05:45.537
<v Speaker 1>resolution of a petition for on bank on banc French

0:05:46.217 --> 0:05:48.057
<v Speaker 1>or some people say end bank, but it's on bank

0:05:48.177 --> 0:05:52.297
<v Speaker 1>consideration in that court before the filing of his petition

0:05:52.617 --> 0:05:56.977
<v Speaker 1>for cerciorari in this court. So they're saying, we want

0:05:56.977 --> 0:06:00.337
<v Speaker 1>the Supreme Court to say hold off on everything, but

0:06:00.577 --> 0:06:03.737
<v Speaker 1>first we want them to put a hold off on

0:06:03.817 --> 0:06:07.417
<v Speaker 1>everything until we have a chance to do the request

0:06:07.497 --> 0:06:09.817
<v Speaker 1>for an on bank. Hear it, right, So you've got

0:06:09.817 --> 0:06:12.017
<v Speaker 1>these three levels at the top of a Supreme Court,

0:06:12.057 --> 0:06:14.417
<v Speaker 1>Appeals court below that, and then distrect court below that,

0:06:15.017 --> 0:06:17.777
<v Speaker 1>and it's like, you know, it's like the pinball machine

0:06:17.817 --> 0:06:19.977
<v Speaker 1>going off one after another and then it goes up

0:06:20.017 --> 0:06:22.097
<v Speaker 1>again and then one after another. Trying to kick this

0:06:22.217 --> 0:06:25.577
<v Speaker 1>back and forth. Trump's team is saying, you've got to

0:06:25.617 --> 0:06:28.777
<v Speaker 1>the Supreme Court. On the merits, very likely we're going

0:06:28.817 --> 0:06:32.857
<v Speaker 1>to win. This is what their application for the stay says.

0:06:33.777 --> 0:06:35.857
<v Speaker 1>On the merits they're going to win. We're going to win,

0:06:35.977 --> 0:06:38.017
<v Speaker 1>or at least are likely to win or have a

0:06:38.057 --> 0:06:41.857
<v Speaker 1>serious chance of winning. So you can't allow this damage

0:06:41.857 --> 0:06:44.577
<v Speaker 1>to be done by Trump of the trial. You can't

0:06:44.617 --> 0:06:47.417
<v Speaker 1>actually allow a trial to happen before the Supreme Court.

0:06:47.737 --> 0:06:51.497
<v Speaker 1>Here's this, because the damage is done by the trial itself.

0:06:53.137 --> 0:06:55.857
<v Speaker 1>Now you'll notice there's all these games, and this is

0:06:55.897 --> 0:07:02.817
<v Speaker 1>absolutely key imperative public importance of a prompt resolution of

0:07:02.857 --> 0:07:05.217
<v Speaker 1>this case that comes from the Special Council, which was

0:07:05.297 --> 0:07:11.057
<v Speaker 1>quoted in this application for a stay. The Special Counsel

0:07:11.177 --> 0:07:17.737
<v Speaker 1>is taking an unprecedented legal position that the public has

0:07:17.777 --> 0:07:22.017
<v Speaker 1>a right to a speedy trial. But that's not true.

0:07:22.137 --> 0:07:25.057
<v Speaker 1>The defendant has the right to a speedy trial if

0:07:25.097 --> 0:07:28.617
<v Speaker 1>the defendant wants to file motions, if the defendant wants

0:07:28.657 --> 0:07:32.497
<v Speaker 1>to have his team bring you know, bring appeals and

0:07:32.537 --> 0:07:37.817
<v Speaker 1>bring various that's within the defendant's right. There's not some countervailing.

0:07:37.897 --> 0:07:41.057
<v Speaker 1>Oh but the public wants this to go faster, so sorry,

0:07:41.377 --> 0:07:43.817
<v Speaker 1>it has to go faster. That doesn't exist in our law.

0:07:44.537 --> 0:07:47.897
<v Speaker 1>The speedy trial is merely there for obvious reasons, so

0:07:47.937 --> 0:07:50.857
<v Speaker 1>that you can't drag it out and punish the defendant

0:07:50.857 --> 0:07:55.817
<v Speaker 1>with the process through duration. So by extending this, it's

0:07:55.937 --> 0:07:59.057
<v Speaker 1>very obvious. If I'm charged with a crime and they

0:07:59.097 --> 0:08:03.817
<v Speaker 1>can drag me into court for five years, oh we're

0:08:03.857 --> 0:08:06.257
<v Speaker 1>going to have this, or rather they can wait before

0:08:06.297 --> 0:08:08.377
<v Speaker 1>I can even be seen for five years. That's the

0:08:08.417 --> 0:08:10.657
<v Speaker 1>bigger thing. I mean, they could drag this out different ways.

0:08:10.657 --> 0:08:12.497
<v Speaker 1>But if they just have the charges hanging over my

0:08:12.537 --> 0:08:15.497
<v Speaker 1>head for five years. My reputation is destroyed. Think of

0:08:15.537 --> 0:08:17.817
<v Speaker 1>all the anxiety that I have to go through. So no,

0:08:18.297 --> 0:08:20.657
<v Speaker 1>they have to be able to give me a speedy trial.

0:08:20.857 --> 0:08:23.257
<v Speaker 1>So they cannot allow delay to be its own form

0:08:23.297 --> 0:08:25.657
<v Speaker 1>of punishment. And then in the trial itself, I can't

0:08:25.697 --> 0:08:27.537
<v Speaker 1>just say, oh, we're going to take you know, six months,

0:08:28.017 --> 0:08:29.657
<v Speaker 1>day in and day out for this trial. If that's

0:08:29.697 --> 0:08:33.577
<v Speaker 1>not necessary, right, they have to have to move expeditiously.

0:08:33.617 --> 0:08:36.057
<v Speaker 1>They have to move on a timeline that's fair to

0:08:36.097 --> 0:08:39.337
<v Speaker 1>the defendant. There is no countervailing. Oh but the public

0:08:39.377 --> 0:08:41.137
<v Speaker 1>wants us to go fast, because you know who wants

0:08:41.217 --> 0:08:45.857
<v Speaker 1>us to go fast? Democrats, Jack Smith, the Special Counsel,

0:08:46.217 --> 0:08:50.337
<v Speaker 1>Joe Biden, the White House, the Democrat Party, the machine

0:08:50.737 --> 0:08:52.897
<v Speaker 1>of the left. That doesn't that doesn't weigh into this,

0:08:52.977 --> 0:08:56.217
<v Speaker 1>that doesn't count. So there's a whole new concept being

0:08:56.217 --> 0:09:00.977
<v Speaker 1>introduced here that I can just tell you is absolute garbage.

0:09:02.137 --> 0:09:04.937
<v Speaker 1>We're going to come back into the merits of this case.

0:09:04.937 --> 0:09:07.177
<v Speaker 1>So the timing thing is essential. Right. Trump wants it

0:09:07.217 --> 0:09:09.497
<v Speaker 1>to go slower for obvious reasons, and he has a

0:09:09.577 --> 0:09:11.177
<v Speaker 1>right to want to go slower. He also has a

0:09:11.257 --> 0:09:14.337
<v Speaker 1>right to have this all heard. The process is allowed

0:09:14.377 --> 0:09:18.657
<v Speaker 1>to favor the defendant here legally and politically, they can't

0:09:18.697 --> 0:09:22.057
<v Speaker 1>speed the process because there's some desire of the public.

0:09:22.137 --> 0:09:26.937
<v Speaker 1>That's fake, that's cheating, that's politicization of the justice system.

0:09:27.257 --> 0:09:28.937
<v Speaker 1>But then also we'll talk a little bit here about

0:09:28.977 --> 0:09:31.377
<v Speaker 1>the merits. But this is everything. If Trump wins this,

0:09:32.217 --> 0:09:35.177
<v Speaker 1>he's probably going to be president. Right if they win

0:09:35.217 --> 0:09:38.897
<v Speaker 1>this legal battle, Donald Trump may lose because of the

0:09:39.457 --> 0:09:41.857
<v Speaker 1>lawfair against him. So we'll return to this in a moment.

0:09:42.057 --> 0:09:43.337
<v Speaker 1>But you know, when Karen and I bought a home

0:09:43.457 --> 0:09:46.297
<v Speaker 1>last year, there was no question who are going to

0:09:46.377 --> 0:09:48.817
<v Speaker 1>use for our mortgage because we have a long standing

0:09:48.857 --> 0:09:52.137
<v Speaker 1>relationship with the best in the business, American Financing. So

0:09:52.177 --> 0:09:56.097

0:11:05.737 --> 0:11:11.497
<v Speaker 1>now onto the merits of the argument about Trump immunity. Now,

0:11:11.497 --> 0:11:13.417
<v Speaker 1>this is a big thing. It goes that they go

0:11:13.497 --> 0:11:16.097
<v Speaker 1>into in this application for the stay even they go

0:11:16.177 --> 0:11:19.417
<v Speaker 1>into Marbury v. Madison, and they go into a Separation

0:11:19.497 --> 0:11:22.137
<v Speaker 1>of Powers and Article three and Article two. And this

0:11:22.297 --> 0:11:26.897
<v Speaker 1>is all basically about the following can a president be

0:11:26.977 --> 0:11:30.177
<v Speaker 1>prosecuted for official acts in office? And they make a

0:11:30.297 --> 0:11:35.617
<v Speaker 1>very compelling case that well, no, of course not, because

0:11:35.657 --> 0:11:38.377
<v Speaker 1>then the party that comes into power afterwards could prosecute

0:11:38.377 --> 0:11:42.377
<v Speaker 1>any president for doing what he does in office. You know, Oh,

0:11:42.777 --> 0:11:45.017
<v Speaker 1>I don't like that he used executive authority for this

0:11:45.097 --> 0:11:49.137
<v Speaker 1>missile strike on this enemy of the state, So he's

0:11:49.177 --> 0:11:52.097
<v Speaker 1>now a criminal. He's now going to be prosecuted for

0:11:52.177 --> 0:11:54.577
<v Speaker 1>that and all the second guessing that would come from

0:11:54.577 --> 0:11:57.977
<v Speaker 1>it. It would effectively undermine a president's ability to do his

0:11:58.097 --> 0:12:02.617
<v Speaker 1>job when it comes to official acts in office. Right.

0:12:03.217 --> 0:12:06.457
<v Speaker 1>So what they're arguing on the other side, first of all,

0:12:06.457 --> 0:12:08.417
<v Speaker 1>they do the no man is above the law, as

0:12:08.417 --> 0:12:12.897
<v Speaker 1>if that settles this, that actually appear in the district

0:12:12.977 --> 0:12:17.977
<v Speaker 1>court ruling on this. What they're arguing is, effectively, Donald

0:12:18.017 --> 0:12:20.977
<v Speaker 1>Trump became a citizen when he was no longer in office.

0:12:20.977 --> 0:12:22.937
<v Speaker 1>He is now subject for the law like everybody else.

0:12:23.617 --> 0:12:26.937
<v Speaker 1>And they'll be arguing that he that it is not

0:12:27.097 --> 0:12:31.537
<v Speaker 1>an official act that would be protected, and that it

0:12:31.617 --> 0:12:34.857
<v Speaker 1>was a ministerial act. Effectively, I mean, they're breaking this down.

0:12:34.897 --> 0:12:38.457
<v Speaker 1>It's going to get into was Trump doing what presidents

0:12:38.537 --> 0:12:41.217
<v Speaker 1>do and therefore he cannot be prosecuted for or was

0:12:41.257 --> 0:12:44.817
<v Speaker 1>Trump outside the scope of what is protected for a

0:12:44.897 --> 0:12:47.817
<v Speaker 1>president and since he is now a citizen, can be

0:12:48.377 --> 0:12:50.977
<v Speaker 1>prosecuted for that. Now, this is going to be a

0:12:51.057 --> 0:12:56.177
<v Speaker 1>fascinating constitutional melee, and I'm not sure I could tell

0:12:56.177 --> 0:12:58.177
<v Speaker 1>you right now how the Supreme Court would rule on it.

0:12:58.297 --> 0:13:01.257
<v Speaker 1>I think probably six ' three, but we would have

0:13:01.337 --> 0:13:05.137
<v Speaker 1>to see. But what's even more obvious and more urgent

0:13:05.217 --> 0:13:08.377
<v Speaker 1>is the timing of this is everything. Timing is everything

0:13:08.417 --> 0:13:11.937
<v Speaker 1>when it comes to this Trump leadlegal challenge, because if

0:13:11.977 --> 0:13:14.297
<v Speaker 1>they're able to get the trial going, the damage may

0:13:14.337 --> 0:13:17.217
<v Speaker 1>be done. So this is why they're asking for a

0:13:17.257 --> 0:13:21.537
<v Speaker 1>stay from the Supreme Court of a stay of the

0:13:21.617 --> 0:13:26.217
<v Speaker 1>District Court's movement toward trial so that they can get

0:13:26.217 --> 0:13:29.217
<v Speaker 1>an on bank They can request an on bank appeals

0:13:29.217 --> 0:13:32.817
<v Speaker 1>court hearing for the Appeals Court in DC, the Circuit

0:13:32.857 --> 0:13:39.137
<v Speaker 1>Court in DC. And also they want a writ of sircirari.

0:13:39.657 --> 0:13:41.817
<v Speaker 1>It's tough to say, but that's what it is, where

0:13:41.857 --> 0:13:43.777
<v Speaker 1>the Supreme Court will be able to weigh in on

0:13:43.817 --> 0:13:47.137
<v Speaker 1>the immunity claim themselves. This is going all the way

0:13:47.177 --> 0:13:48.897
<v Speaker 1>to the top friends, it is going to the Supreme

0:13:48.937 --> 0:13:52.737
<v Speaker 1>Court one way or another. I think that's quite clear,

0:13:53.337 --> 0:13:56.457
<v Speaker 1>and the entire election probably turns on it. So in

0:13:56.497 --> 0:13:58.537
<v Speaker 1>a sense, we may have the Court determining whether or

0:13:58.577 --> 0:14:01.777
<v Speaker 1>not we get to even vote for our preferred candidate

0:14:01.817 --> 0:14:04.537
<v Speaker 1>in this election, in a free and fair election. It

0:14:04.617 --> 0:14:07.177
<v Speaker 1>is not an overstatement to say that the republic itself

0:14:07.257 --> 0:14:10.017
<v Speaker 1>is at stake. These are the stakes that we face,

0:14:10.777 --> 0:14:13.977
<v Speaker 1>so we'll continue to follow this. Appreciate you letting me

0:14:14.017 --> 0:14:16.057
<v Speaker 1>do a deep dive into it. Shields high
