1 00:00:01,840 --> 00:00:05,920 Speaker 1: This is twenty four, a weekly highlight reel from the Clay, 2 00:00:05,960 --> 00:00:10,240 Speaker 1: Travis and Buck Sexton Show featuring all things election coverage. 3 00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 2: Let's get started. Here are Clay and Buck this. 4 00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:19,040 Speaker 3: Morning, Buck, I was listening and reading about that argument. 5 00:00:19,720 --> 00:00:21,400 Speaker 2: I don't think this is going to be close. 6 00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 3: I think it's going to be at least six ' 7 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,400 Speaker 3: three that they cannot use these statutes, and it may 8 00:00:27,480 --> 00:00:31,920 Speaker 3: go all the way out to potentially some of the 9 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,800 Speaker 3: liberal justices as well, who have evinced a great deal 10 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 3: of skepticism. 11 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,559 Speaker 2: Also, we'll get Julie Kelly's read Have you seen this? 12 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,560 Speaker 3: I mean, I think if they were to go seven 13 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 3: to or something in that magnitude to strike this down, 14 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 3: it would be a huge blow to Jack Smith and 15 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:49,120 Speaker 3: all of the Democrats that have tried to use this 16 00:00:49,240 --> 00:00:50,560 Speaker 3: January sixth statute. 17 00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:55,440 Speaker 4: Well, I also think that it goes into a larger framework, 18 00:00:55,720 --> 00:01:01,040 Speaker 4: a bigger it's evidence in a bigger trial if you will. 19 00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 4: That how many times can they try to use the 20 00:01:05,600 --> 00:01:09,039 Speaker 4: law against Trump and they have to get slapped down? 21 00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 4: You know what I mean? You look at all the 22 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:15,840 Speaker 4: different prosecutors, all the different efforts to destroy Trump that 23 00:01:15,920 --> 00:01:19,880 Speaker 4: we are finding the system itself is saying is outrageous, 24 00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 4: meaning they've tried to abuse the system to destroy Trump, 25 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:25,000 Speaker 4: and then people have had to step in at the 26 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,680 Speaker 4: Supreme Court level, for example, and say, guys, what are 27 00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 4: you doing. That's not constitutional, that's not lawful. 28 00:01:32,040 --> 00:01:33,040 Speaker 2: And the best. 29 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:38,160 Speaker 4: Example is the nine to zero of what Colorado was 30 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,720 Speaker 4: trying to do. And then Maine dabbled in for a 31 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 4: second of removing Trump from the ballot. To be very clear, 32 00:01:44,840 --> 00:01:49,080 Speaker 4: the most left wing justices I think in the history 33 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 4: of the Supreme Court, okay, and certainly the most among 34 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,960 Speaker 4: the most anti Trump judges you'll find anywhere, went along 35 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 4: with the majority and that they said, guys, you can't 36 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,160 Speaker 4: just say we think he did a thing, but it 37 00:02:00,200 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 4: hasn't been proven in court, and we're going to remove 38 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:04,560 Speaker 4: him from the ballot and he can't be president. He 39 00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:08,000 Speaker 4: can't do that, right, I mean, you're effectively overriding federal elections. Clay. 40 00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:11,080 Speaker 4: If this happens now, to your point about the Supreme 41 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 4: Court argument this morning, if that gets struck down, they 42 00:02:14,040 --> 00:02:18,520 Speaker 4: will have abused another statute to pile up against not 43 00:02:18,600 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 4: just Trump but his supporters. Their abuse isn't just a 44 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,600 Speaker 4: matter of opinion. Their abuse of the law is becoming 45 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:29,600 Speaker 4: increasingly a matter of fact over and over again. 46 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:35,000 Speaker 3: And this is also important. They are trying now. This 47 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:38,959 Speaker 3: has just happened. The prosecutors have filed emotion to hold 48 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 3: Trump in contempt for violating the gag order that was 49 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:45,519 Speaker 3: put on place in place for him in the Manhattan 50 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 3: criminal trial. Trump has already weighed in this morning, and 51 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 3: I listened and I was like, wow, this is what 52 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 3: he said outside of the courtroom as we were as 53 00:02:58,720 --> 00:02:59,840 Speaker 3: he entered this morning. 54 00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 2: So this is a couple of hours ago. I think. Now, listen, 55 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 2: we have a judge who shouldn't be on this case. 56 00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 5: He's totally conflicted. But this is a trial that should 57 00:03:09,080 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 5: never happened or should have been thrown out a long 58 00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:11,679 Speaker 5: time ago. 59 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 6: If you look at Jonathan Terry, Andy McCarthy, all great 60 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:20,440 Speaker 6: legal scholars, there's not one that we've been able to 61 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 6: find that said this should be a trial I should 62 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:28,480 Speaker 6: be right now in Pennsylvania and far in many other states. 63 00:03:28,560 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 2: North Camp lad judge campaigning. 64 00:03:31,639 --> 00:03:34,320 Speaker 5: This is all coming from the bit White House. Because 65 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,960 Speaker 5: the guy can't put two sentences together, you can't campaign. 66 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 5: We neede to using this in order to try and 67 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 5: win an election, and it's not working that way. It's 68 00:03:43,600 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 5: working the opposite way. 69 00:03:45,720 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 3: Okay, so that is Trump this morning. He also posted 70 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 3: on truth right before he went into the courtroom buck 71 00:03:52,480 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 3: this conflicted Trump hating judge won't let me respond to 72 00:03:57,440 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 3: people that are on TV lying and spewing hate all 73 00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 3: day long. He's running roughshod over my lawyers and legal team. 74 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 3: The New York system of quotation marks justice is being 75 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 3: decimated by critics. 76 00:04:10,200 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 2: From all over the world. 77 00:04:11,800 --> 00:04:15,000 Speaker 3: I want to speak, or at least be able to respond. 78 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:22,239 Speaker 3: Election interference, rigged, unconstitutional trial. Take off the gag order now. 79 00:04:22,480 --> 00:04:25,560 Speaker 3: But here's my question for you. Are they gonna put 80 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,919 Speaker 3: him in jail over this? Because I think that's where 81 00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 3: this is headed. I think this judge wants Trump in 82 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,520 Speaker 3: jail for viat for contempt, and I don't think it's 83 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 3: crazy to think it's gonna happen. 84 00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:37,039 Speaker 2: I think Trump may want it to happen. 85 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 4: Well, this is there are some parts of this that 86 00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,520 Speaker 4: are legal analysis and parts of this that become very 87 00:04:44,520 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 4: obviously political analysis, and I know they're intertwined as well. 88 00:04:48,760 --> 00:04:51,280 Speaker 4: I know we get this question all the time, and 89 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 4: it's funny because I don't know anybody who has an 90 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 4: answer to it. How do you incarcerate somebody who has 91 00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 4: lifetime twenty four to seven secret service protect. 92 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:00,960 Speaker 2: We start to ask, get this years ago. 93 00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:03,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, we've been looking at this for a long time now. 94 00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 4: There is precedent for you know, taking a taking a 95 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 4: person and putting them in I think they call it 96 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 4: administrative administrative segregation where you know, for example, if if 97 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,440 Speaker 4: a cop gets put in like state prison, they sometimes 98 00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 4: will move because you know, maybe. 99 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 3: The protective custody basically the other members of the of 100 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 3: the jail. 101 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, and and you could do something like that, but 102 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,880 Speaker 4: you would have to have secret Service, like I think 103 00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 4: Trump might. This is I understand, this is crazy. Can 104 00:05:37,080 --> 00:05:39,440 Speaker 4: I just preface this. I know what we're saying here 105 00:05:39,480 --> 00:05:42,359 Speaker 4: is crazy, but we're in a crazy time everyone. I 106 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,080 Speaker 4: think there's a situation where maybe they would because if 107 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,760 Speaker 4: they hold them in contempt, what it's going to be 108 00:05:47,839 --> 00:05:49,799 Speaker 4: forty eight hours or something, right. 109 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 2: I thinet him in cuffs and they walk, they purple walk. 110 00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:53,360 Speaker 4: That's what I'm saying. 111 00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 2: That's the question. 112 00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:58,480 Speaker 4: They want to break, the seal they want to establish 113 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:01,799 Speaker 4: just like remember the rag trial was the first one 114 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:04,880 Speaker 4: to bring an indictment, which I always thought was significant 115 00:06:04,880 --> 00:06:08,720 Speaker 4: because yeah, it was flimsy, but they knew that there 116 00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 4: was no process by which it would likely be overturned 117 00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:14,039 Speaker 4: or stopped in New York, so they wanted to set 118 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 4: the precedent, and all the omens came in. Clay, I 119 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 4: think they could put him. I think they think, I'll 120 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,520 Speaker 4: put it that way. They think they could end up 121 00:06:21,520 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 4: putting him in an administrative sec By the way, if 122 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:28,160 Speaker 4: we have somebody from like Bureau of Prisons or you know, 123 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 4: New York State Bureau of Prisons, or just in general, 124 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 4: let us know if you think there is some precedent. 125 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,080 Speaker 4: My sense is they would have to shut down like 126 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,680 Speaker 4: a wing of a holding facility, and then there have 127 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,480 Speaker 4: to be Secret Service there to protect him. But he'd 128 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:45,479 Speaker 4: have to be inside of a cell for a couple 129 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 4: of days. And that's what they would, That's what they would. 130 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:50,480 Speaker 4: They can't I don't think that. I mean that the 131 00:06:50,560 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 4: New York State can't say you no longer have Secret 132 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 4: Service protection. They can't do that, Okay, So that leads 133 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,200 Speaker 4: to that, which is crazy. There aren't a lot of 134 00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 4: precedents for this this. Okay, there's no president, there's no 135 00:07:04,800 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 4: I mean, there are precedents for famous people being held 136 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 4: in contempt of court, never someone with Secret Service protection. 137 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 4: Never a former and likely future president of the United States. Though, 138 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 4: so here is my question for you. 139 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:21,679 Speaker 3: Then, as a part of that, is this Trump as 140 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:25,480 Speaker 3: I've used this analogy because I remember growing up watching it. 141 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,480 Speaker 2: Do you know Braer Rabbit at all? Buck? Do you 142 00:07:28,480 --> 00:07:32,400 Speaker 2: remember the Braer Rabbit stories? No? 143 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 4: Ok, I don't know what you're talking about. 144 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,440 Speaker 3: I don't know what percentage of people out there will 145 00:07:36,440 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 3: remember this. I'm in Georgia, by the way, which is 146 00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 3: where I think that Joel Chandler Harris Braer Rabbit stories originated. 147 00:07:43,480 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 3: They were later made into cartoons, all this stuff Breer Rabbit. 148 00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:50,800 Speaker 3: And before they decided that Splash Mountain was racist at 149 00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 3: Disney World, Breer Rabbit was the star. 150 00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,760 Speaker 2: Of Splash Mountain. If any of you have been on 151 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 2: the Splash Mountain. 152 00:07:56,600 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 3: Ride at Disney, okay, Breer Rabbit would all say, don't 153 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:04,320 Speaker 3: throw me in the briar patch. Whatever you do, don't 154 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:09,239 Speaker 3: throw me in the briar patch. Is Donald Trump daring 155 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:14,480 Speaker 3: march hand this judge as well as the larger Democrat 156 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:18,120 Speaker 3: Party apparatus to put him in jail because in the 157 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:22,600 Speaker 3: same way that the mugshot was a huge benefit to Trump, 158 00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 3: is him getting put in jail for contempt of court 159 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 3: a huge political win for him, Leave aside the legal 160 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 3: for right now. 161 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 4: I do think so, especially especially on this, because even 162 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,760 Speaker 4: people who are casual observers of the news, which is 163 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:41,240 Speaker 4: most people, because most people are you know, we have 164 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 4: a hyper attuned and informed audience most of America. As 165 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 4: much as I love America, people have other things that 166 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,440 Speaker 4: don't watch the news, even if you or watch much 167 00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:53,559 Speaker 4: of the news, and they get their news from bad 168 00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:56,040 Speaker 4: places in a lot in a lot of context too. 169 00:08:56,920 --> 00:09:01,480 Speaker 4: I think that the that Donald Trump in a cell, 170 00:09:02,040 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 4: the reason being he was held in contempt by a judge, 171 00:09:06,480 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 4: the reason being he's speaking out against a trial that 172 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 4: has to do with a business administrative accounting error. That's 173 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 4: all this is. That is what we're talking about here. 174 00:09:19,080 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 4: I think that any normal person who has not been 175 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,479 Speaker 4: just steeped in trumped arrangement syndrome would say to that 176 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,560 Speaker 4: is this. We can't have this in our country. And 177 00:09:27,920 --> 00:09:29,559 Speaker 4: I think that's why the polls are all showing what 178 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 4: they're showing right now. Clay, that's that's the truth. 179 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:37,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, and this is why I mean, look you things 180 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:38,719 Speaker 3: cut through. I think what you said is a good 181 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 3: a good point. What percentage of people do you think 182 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 3: have seen the Trump mugshot photo? What percentage of American voters? 183 00:09:45,920 --> 00:09:48,840 Speaker 3: One hundred percent. I think it's almost impossible that you 184 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,240 Speaker 3: would not have seen the Trump mugshot picture, even if 185 00:09:52,240 --> 00:09:54,079 Speaker 3: you're not paying attention to the. 186 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:55,160 Speaker 2: News on a day to day basis. 187 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 4: I mean, I think if you can name the current 188 00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 4: vice president, you've seen the mugshot photo, you. 189 00:09:59,280 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 2: Know what I mean? 190 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 4: Like, I think if you have. 191 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:05,040 Speaker 3: Photo, then they can be the vice president. I think 192 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 3: it's almost one hundred percent of voters would have seen 193 00:10:07,280 --> 00:10:10,720 Speaker 3: that photo. My point is almost one hundred percent of voters. 194 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,640 Speaker 3: I'm saying voters because you know forty percent of people 195 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:15,640 Speaker 3: are not voting. I think almost one hundred percent of 196 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,080 Speaker 3: voters will see if Trump is arrested. They may not 197 00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:21,240 Speaker 3: pay attention to the results of the trial, they may 198 00:10:21,280 --> 00:10:22,960 Speaker 3: not be following on a day to day basis like 199 00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,439 Speaker 3: we are. And to me, I think it's highly likely 200 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 3: that it would work to his favor. And I wonder 201 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 3: how much political calculus in the same way we've talked 202 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,120 Speaker 3: for a long time now, ever since the raid on 203 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 3: mar Lago in what August of twenty two, we have 204 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 3: said there's a two tier story here, the legal and 205 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:43,760 Speaker 3: the political, and they're intertwined in a way that we've 206 00:10:43,800 --> 00:10:46,679 Speaker 3: never seen before. Something can be smart legally and really 207 00:10:46,720 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 3: poor decision of politically and vice versa. 208 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:53,440 Speaker 4: And also I think something to remember about where the 209 00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 4: Democrats are and the anti Trump machinery. They thought all 210 00:10:57,040 --> 00:11:01,720 Speaker 4: along that these trials, that these prosecutions would destroy Donald Trump. 211 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 4: They have no choice but to see all of this through, 212 00:11:05,080 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 4: to withdraw all of it at this point, or to 213 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 4: withdraw all the efforts to say, all right, you know 214 00:11:09,679 --> 00:11:12,959 Speaker 4: the elections coming up, we're going to defer. Delay would 215 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 4: be essentially to admit that they had made some political 216 00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 4: calcula calculation error. So they have to go all the 217 00:11:21,679 --> 00:11:23,600 Speaker 4: way with this. And I think that in New York, 218 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:27,559 Speaker 4: what you're seeing is if they brought this trial and 219 00:11:27,800 --> 00:11:29,480 Speaker 4: I'm going to say, I mean, they did this to 220 00:11:29,559 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 4: Trump's Trump Incorporate, you know, corporation accountant Alan Weiselberg, who's 221 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 4: gone to prison, and they just sent to Peter Navarro 222 00:11:38,320 --> 00:11:40,400 Speaker 4: to prison. He's serving a sentence right now for not 223 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:43,440 Speaker 4: testifying to Congress because he's associated with Trump. If they 224 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 4: did this to anyone Clay, it would be an outrage. 225 00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 4: That they're doing it to the person who is leading 226 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,680 Speaker 4: in the presidential nomination contest right now according to every 227 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 4: single polling company in the United States is It's outrageous 228 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:58,440 Speaker 4: beyond words. But they have what are they going to do? 229 00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,480 Speaker 4: They won't stop, so they're going to see this all 230 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,800 Speaker 4: the way through. I don't see a way around it. 231 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 4: I mean, I think that and locking Trump up. If 232 00:12:08,000 --> 00:12:12,320 Speaker 4: you're from you, if you've worked in prisons and you 233 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:15,839 Speaker 4: have some idea of how they could do this, I 234 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 4: don't even know what would they do. How would this go? 235 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,719 Speaker 4: Let us know, because I'd be very curious to hear it. 236 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,520 Speaker 4: I think the only answer is that they would have 237 00:12:23,640 --> 00:12:26,320 Speaker 4: to have the Secret Service come in, clear a wing, 238 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,760 Speaker 4: shut down the wing, and it would almost be like 239 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 4: you remember when Pablo Escobar got to build his own prison, 240 00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:34,120 Speaker 4: kind of be a little bit like that, because like 241 00:12:34,160 --> 00:12:36,960 Speaker 4: your guys would be running the thing, and uh, nobody 242 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,679 Speaker 4: would really be. And I don't know. 243 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 3: Also, Buck he has to be in court, So I 244 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 3: don't even know how they can jail him, because the 245 00:12:45,840 --> 00:12:49,480 Speaker 3: judges already said that he has to be present in court, 246 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 3: even if it means that he misses his son's graduation potentially, 247 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 3: So if he gets put in court, it further delays 248 00:12:56,000 --> 00:12:58,280 Speaker 3: the process of the troth. I mean, it's put in jail. 249 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,640 Speaker 3: It further delays the process of the trial. I just 250 00:13:01,720 --> 00:13:05,640 Speaker 3: I don't even know. I this is fascinating. I don't 251 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 3: even know how this plays out. But yeah, to your 252 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,319 Speaker 3: point eight hundred two A two two eight eight two. 253 00:13:09,400 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 3: If you have some theory, based on your knowledge of 254 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 3: the New York court system, what this would be like 255 00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:18,040 Speaker 3: or how it would work, I would actually be be 256 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:19,080 Speaker 3: fascinated to hear. 257 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:22,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm we're gonna, we're gonna dive into this, and 258 00:13:22,920 --> 00:13:26,040 Speaker 4: I think, uh, I mean, it's gonna The thing is, 259 00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 4: I just want to prepare all of you. 260 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:30,880 Speaker 2: It's gonna get crazier. It's gonna get crazier. 261 00:13:30,960 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 4: You have not seen peak crazy. 262 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 3: We're just touching the tip of the iceberg right now 263 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:37,200 Speaker 3: of the crazy that's coming. 264 00:13:37,280 --> 00:13:37,920 Speaker 2: That is correct. 265 00:13:38,040 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: Yes, you're listening to twenty four the Year of Impact 266 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:45,959 Speaker 1: with Clay and Buck. 267 00:13:48,280 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 3: I think Trump is gonna win Georgia by eight points. 268 00:13:52,480 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 3: I don't think it's gonna be close. I think it's 269 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:54,240 Speaker 3: gonna be like. 270 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 4: I'm putting it on the I'm putting it on the 271 00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 4: prediction put. 272 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 3: It on the projection screen eight points. I think seven 273 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 3: or eight points. I think it's going to be a 274 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:04,560 Speaker 3: very comfortable win in Georgia. Of all the states, if 275 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 3: you had to ask me which state is most likely 276 00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:11,760 Speaker 3: to flip from twenty twenty, either in favor of Democrats 277 00:14:11,880 --> 00:14:14,920 Speaker 3: or in favor of Republicans, I think Georgia is going 278 00:14:14,960 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 3: to be back in red camp. And I actually think 279 00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:21,480 Speaker 3: you're going to start to see Biden spending less time 280 00:14:21,680 --> 00:14:25,360 Speaker 3: and money in Georgia because the numbers out there are 281 00:14:25,440 --> 00:14:26,360 Speaker 3: really bad for them. 282 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 2: In Georgia. The most recent poll has Trump up ten. 283 00:14:29,080 --> 00:14:29,600 Speaker 2: In Georgia. 284 00:14:30,040 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 3: There is no Senate race, there is no governor's race. 285 00:14:33,920 --> 00:14:39,000 Speaker 3: There's nothing to motivate in state voters for Democrats in 286 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:42,680 Speaker 3: any kind of substantial way. And you'll recall in twenty 287 00:14:42,760 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 3: twenty two, basically every statewide candidate except herschel Walker won 288 00:14:49,160 --> 00:14:52,120 Speaker 3: by seven or eight points. So it wasn't just that 289 00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:55,480 Speaker 3: they won. It was despite the fact that Stacy Abrams. 290 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:58,840 Speaker 3: I believe outspent Brian Kemp and they had a close 291 00:14:58,960 --> 00:15:01,920 Speaker 3: race in twenty eighteen. He trounced her in twenty twenty two. 292 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,040 Speaker 3: So I appreciate the atl for taking care of me. 293 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 3: I'm gonna be down here again in June to watch 294 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:10,080 Speaker 3: the Atlanta Braves with my kids. 295 00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 2: I can't wait it. We wait for it. 296 00:15:11,760 --> 00:15:14,560 Speaker 3: We got a great affiliate again, News Talk Extra one 297 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,880 Speaker 3: oh six point three FM. We appreciate all of you 298 00:15:17,960 --> 00:15:21,160 Speaker 3: out there listening in Atlanta. And then Buck, I'm headed 299 00:15:21,200 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 3: to Seattle, which is crazy town. I'm gonna be speaking 300 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:29,360 Speaker 3: at a Hillsdale College event that they are doing in Seattle. 301 00:15:29,760 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 3: So I'm gonna get on I don't know, a midnight 302 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:33,960 Speaker 3: flight basically and fly all the way to the West 303 00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 3: coast and I'll be doing the show Wednesday and Thursday 304 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:40,760 Speaker 3: from there. So anyway, we'll see how how I do 305 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 3: in crazy town. I haven't been to Seattle since everything 306 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 3: fell apart with Chaz. Remember that, like the Autonomous Region 307 00:15:49,800 --> 00:15:54,720 Speaker 3: and everything. I mean, even for twenty twenty standards of crazy. 308 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 3: People looked at Seattle, Portland and San Francisco and said, 309 00:16:00,120 --> 00:16:01,240 Speaker 3: you guys are crazy. 310 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:03,359 Speaker 2: The standard for crazy was high. 311 00:16:03,560 --> 00:16:08,320 Speaker 3: Seattle Portland and San Francisco all exceeded it by massive amounts, 312 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,040 Speaker 3: So we'll see what it looks like. I haven't been 313 00:16:10,040 --> 00:16:11,400 Speaker 3: to the city since, Like I said, I think I 314 00:16:11,440 --> 00:16:13,720 Speaker 3: was like twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen that I was in Seattle, 315 00:16:13,720 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 3: beautiful place, filled with a lot of crazy leftists. So 316 00:16:17,520 --> 00:16:21,680 Speaker 3: we'll see how I do there. But two major legal 317 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:23,840 Speaker 3: issues that are unfolding. You just heard us talk with 318 00:16:23,920 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 3: Julie Kelly, the analysis of whether the Jan six political persecutions, 319 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 3: because I do think persecution and prosecution are intertwined in 320 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 3: many ways here are permissible or not under the Sarbines 321 00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:42,880 Speaker 3: Oxley obstruction of an official preceding standard. It seems likely 322 00:16:42,920 --> 00:16:45,200 Speaker 3: that many of those convictions are going to get struck down. 323 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:47,440 Speaker 3: Maybe it'll be five to four, maybe it'll be six 324 00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 3: to three, maybe even get a liberal to come on. 325 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:51,680 Speaker 2: But that would come out in June. 326 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 3: Would be a huge story because it implicates half of 327 00:16:54,840 --> 00:16:58,320 Speaker 3: Jack Smith's case in Washington, DC. It would also be 328 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 3: a huge story, as you just heard us talk, because 329 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:05,640 Speaker 3: for years leftists have been saying, oh, these Jan six 330 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:11,360 Speaker 3: insurrection cases, they're one hundred percent legally permissible, they're necessary. 331 00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 3: We have to hold everybody accountable. What you're probably likely 332 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:19,639 Speaker 3: to hear is that there was major prosecutorial overreach. Simultaneously, 333 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:23,760 Speaker 3: they are trying to hold Trump in contempt of court 334 00:17:23,760 --> 00:17:27,440 Speaker 3: in New York City, where day two of his criminal 335 00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 3: trial in the Alvin Bragg cases underway. And what we 336 00:17:31,400 --> 00:17:33,560 Speaker 3: have been talking about, I think fairly on this show 337 00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,280 Speaker 3: Buck since August of twenty two, when the mar A 338 00:17:36,359 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 3: Lago RAI basically kicked into high gear, the way that 339 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 3: Merrick Garland and the Department of Justice were going to 340 00:17:43,640 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 3: all come after Donald Trump. How is this playing in 341 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:51,440 Speaker 3: the larger political arena? What would happen if Trump got arrested? 342 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:53,919 Speaker 3: How would they even handle it? These are things that 343 00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:56,960 Speaker 3: are truly unprecedented that we are continuing to break down. 344 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:01,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think anybody who tells you they know where 345 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,200 Speaker 4: all this is going is making that up. It's not possible. 346 00:18:05,800 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 4: Did you want to get to the stephen A. 347 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 3: Smith Clay, Yeah, I want to play this because I 348 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,399 Speaker 3: would argue that Stephen A. Smith very middle of the 349 00:18:13,480 --> 00:18:17,280 Speaker 3: road guy. He's not a politically for me ESPN. He's 350 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,000 Speaker 3: gonna come on the show. We're gonna get him on 351 00:18:19,040 --> 00:18:21,840 Speaker 3: somewhat soon. He's being more outspoken on a variety of 352 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 3: different areas. I've done his podcast a couple of times. 353 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:28,480 Speaker 3: We had interesting conversations, but he had this to say yesterday. 354 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:31,200 Speaker 3: We've talked a lot about black men and the possibility 355 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:33,760 Speaker 3: that if you look at the polling from Wall Street Journal, 356 00:18:34,000 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 3: maybe thirty percent of black men are willing to support Trump. 357 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 3: Here is here's what Stephen A. Smith had to say 358 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,359 Speaker 3: about the cases in his hometown of New York City. 359 00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:46,679 Speaker 7: Some my liberal friends out there, all you're doing is 360 00:18:46,760 --> 00:18:50,320 Speaker 7: showing that you're scared you can't beat them on the 361 00:18:50,480 --> 00:18:54,680 Speaker 7: issues and the merits. That's why he keeps saying it's 362 00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:58,119 Speaker 7: a political campaign against me. That's why he keeps saying 363 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,400 Speaker 7: they can't beat me at the elect at the polls. 364 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:03,959 Speaker 7: This is the only way they could do it. And 365 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 7: if you don't put him in jail, and he still 366 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,880 Speaker 7: goes from being the presumptive GOP nominee to the official 367 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 7: GOP nominee, and he goes to the polls even though 368 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,800 Speaker 7: he was gonna whine about winning and being rigged again, 369 00:19:17,760 --> 00:19:21,840 Speaker 7: you have given more fodder to that argument, which means 370 00:19:21,840 --> 00:19:24,639 Speaker 7: we'll never have peace in this country because tens of 371 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 7: millions of people. See what extent the other side is 372 00:19:29,359 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 7: willing to go through just to keep him out of 373 00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:34,640 Speaker 7: office because they can't beat him on their own merits. 374 00:19:35,200 --> 00:19:38,440 Speaker 4: I do think this is a fundamental point. I mean, 375 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,200 Speaker 4: this is a central point of everything that we're talking 376 00:19:41,200 --> 00:19:45,200 Speaker 4: about here. If what Trump did is so bad, and 377 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:48,879 Speaker 4: if it's so clear he's so awful, why is he 378 00:19:48,960 --> 00:19:50,960 Speaker 4: ahead in the polls? And why are they so scared 379 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 4: of what's going to happen in the fall. And they 380 00:19:53,080 --> 00:19:55,959 Speaker 4: don't have an answer for that, and they won't process it, 381 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 4: they won't think it through. But I think stephen A 382 00:19:58,800 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 4: hits right into the center it. It's something we've discussed 383 00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 4: here many times. The best way for there to be 384 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,879 Speaker 4: a referendum on Trump's behavior, whether just talking about his 385 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 4: four years as president or what you think about whether 386 00:20:11,480 --> 00:20:15,000 Speaker 4: that should change because of January sixth. This is ultimately 387 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 4: the most clear political question right This is about who 388 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 4: should lead the nation according to the vote of the 389 00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:27,480 Speaker 4: American people. Let the people have their say. All these 390 00:20:27,520 --> 00:20:30,240 Speaker 4: efforts that they have are meant to either stop Trump 391 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,520 Speaker 4: entirely now, and look, he's clearly the nominal. It's not 392 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:36,439 Speaker 4: about just having him win the primary anymore, if it 393 00:20:36,480 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 4: ever was, it's to stop him from being able to 394 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 4: run entirely or now. I think this is what they've 395 00:20:45,560 --> 00:20:48,960 Speaker 4: shifted gears toward, just make it so it's really hard 396 00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 4: for him to win as he's running, but not based 397 00:20:52,640 --> 00:20:54,960 Speaker 4: upon what people want, based upon the fact that they 398 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 4: are rigging the system. I mean, this is they're rigging 399 00:20:57,760 --> 00:21:00,879 Speaker 4: the election. Even if Trump wins, it be an election 400 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,160 Speaker 4: that is rigged against him, just based upon these legal challenges. 401 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:07,399 Speaker 4: And they can't come up with an answer. If Trump 402 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:11,360 Speaker 4: is so bad, why are you terrified that the American 403 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:14,239 Speaker 4: people are going to vote for him over Joe Biden? Like, 404 00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:17,240 Speaker 4: what is the response to that? After four years of 405 00:21:17,240 --> 00:21:20,520 Speaker 4: Trump and four years of Biden? Americans of voting age 406 00:21:20,720 --> 00:21:23,800 Speaker 4: are likely to say, based on what we see right now, yeah, 407 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 4: I want Trump to be president again. 408 00:21:25,920 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 3: It's not even just that, too, Buck, It's that they're 409 00:21:28,840 --> 00:21:32,520 Speaker 3: only even willing by and large to bring charges in 410 00:21:32,680 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 3: juries that are rigged in their favor. That is political 411 00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 3: locales that overwhelmingly favored Democrats. So that's why I think 412 00:21:40,560 --> 00:21:42,359 Speaker 3: one of the most difficult and I think Stephen a 413 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 3: hit on it. 414 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 2: We've been hitting on this quite a lot. 415 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 3: That's why I think one of the most difficult questions 416 00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 3: to answer is not only why are you trying to 417 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 3: keep him from running? Why are you trying to put 418 00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:57,360 Speaker 3: him in prison? It's also why are you doing these charges? 419 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 3: Why are you bringing them entirely in a jury rig 420 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 3: to a large extent process, Because I'm not we said 421 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 3: this earlier. If you told me, hey, it's a fifty 422 00:22:10,000 --> 00:22:12,320 Speaker 3: to fifty America, which I think it's fair to say 423 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,800 Speaker 3: that roughly, it is like everybody out there listening would 424 00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 3: have to agree. If you told me that they were 425 00:22:17,040 --> 00:22:19,360 Speaker 3: going to try to bring charges against Trump to put 426 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:21,080 Speaker 3: him in prison for the rest of his life, I 427 00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,359 Speaker 3: would still think it's an awful precedent to set in 428 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,240 Speaker 3: the United States, because sooner or later, somebody else will 429 00:22:28,320 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 3: also have the same result that Trump has. Now somebody 430 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:34,840 Speaker 3: else is going to get charged as a method of lawfare. 431 00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:37,840 Speaker 3: But at least if you allowed the jury to be 432 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 3: in a jurisdiction that's fifty to fifty, I would say, okay, like, 433 00:22:43,040 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 3: let's see how it actually plays out, Which is why 434 00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:48,600 Speaker 3: South Florida. I'm not that nervous about South Florida. I 435 00:22:48,640 --> 00:22:51,479 Speaker 3: don't think that there will be a jury that is 436 00:22:51,560 --> 00:22:54,760 Speaker 3: overwhelmingly made up of Trump haters. I think there's going 437 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,159 Speaker 3: to be a jury in New York City that, just 438 00:22:57,280 --> 00:22:59,479 Speaker 3: based on the numbers, is likely to be made up 439 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,000 Speaker 3: of Trump hay And I think I don't think it's 440 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,639 Speaker 3: crazy to think that there are going to be people 441 00:23:05,000 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 3: that want to see Trump put in prison for the 442 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 3: rest of his life that are a part of this 443 00:23:09,880 --> 00:23:12,160 Speaker 3: jury pool. Now, maybe some of them will say, hey, 444 00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:15,320 Speaker 3: you know what, I can't fairly and impartially render justice. 445 00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 3: We already saw that happen a little bit, they'll step out. 446 00:23:17,240 --> 00:23:21,040 Speaker 3: I think there's other people that will be happy to 447 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:24,720 Speaker 3: be on this jury because they want to hold Trump responsible. 448 00:23:24,760 --> 00:23:26,119 Speaker 2: They want to be the deciders. 449 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:31,640 Speaker 3: And I just I look at this and I say, fundamentally, 450 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:35,040 Speaker 3: we can have one hundred and fifty million people render 451 00:23:35,080 --> 00:23:38,919 Speaker 3: a verdict on Trump's behavior, on Trump's whether or not 452 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 3: he's able to be president, or we can have twelve 453 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:45,119 Speaker 3: in a incredibly biased jurisdiction. 454 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:47,879 Speaker 2: And to me, the one hundred and fifty million is 455 00:23:47,880 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 2: the answer. 456 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 3: No matter how much you trust juries, do you want 457 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,440 Speaker 3: twelve people trying to decide who can be president? Or 458 00:23:53,480 --> 00:23:54,760 Speaker 3: do you want one hundred and fifty million. 459 00:23:55,280 --> 00:23:58,240 Speaker 4: It does go to the ultimate point. I think about 460 00:23:58,280 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 4: the mental instability of many of the Democrats that are 461 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:05,880 Speaker 4: pushing for this, or the the emotional and ideological surrender 462 00:24:05,920 --> 00:24:08,359 Speaker 4: that they've had. Right, they just whatever the anti trump 463 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:12,280 Speaker 4: Ism demands they will go for. And the fact that 464 00:24:12,800 --> 00:24:17,200 Speaker 4: Alvin Bragg has turned that one preposterous charge it's worth. 465 00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:19,760 Speaker 4: It's worth everybody knowing you or keeping this in mind. 466 00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:22,440 Speaker 4: I think it's thirty four right, it's a thirty four 467 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:27,480 Speaker 4: felony count indictment. It was one thing we're talking about, 468 00:24:27,480 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 4: and he's charging it thirty four times, which is specifically 469 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 4: against prosecutorial guidelines. You're not supposed to you know, if 470 00:24:33,119 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 4: someone hands you drugs and then you say, hold on 471 00:24:36,320 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 4: time my shoe, and you hand it back to them, 472 00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 4: and then they hand the drugs back to you. You know, 473 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,200 Speaker 4: you don't charge these as separate drug possession crimes. 474 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 2: Right. 475 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 4: They're not supposed to do that because it's obviously unjust. 476 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 4: That's exactly what Alvin Bragg is doing. He's saying, oh, well, 477 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,639 Speaker 4: they like Xerox did or they emailed it or whatever 478 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:53,800 Speaker 4: that every time we're going to charge that as an 479 00:24:53,800 --> 00:24:57,400 Speaker 4: additional felony. And you have to wonder that any Democrat 480 00:24:57,400 --> 00:24:59,680 Speaker 4: who supports the prosecution going on in New York City 481 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 4: is also so telling you that in America today, it 482 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:07,199 Speaker 4: would be more just not preferable for you know what 483 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 4: you think the politics of the country should be. It 484 00:25:09,119 --> 00:25:11,679 Speaker 4: would be more just for Donald Trump to be in 485 00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 4: prison for years and not be able to run, although 486 00:25:15,480 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 4: I think he would still run from prison. That's a 487 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 4: whole other conversation. That's insane. But it'd be more just 488 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 4: for Donald Trump to sit in a prison cell over 489 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 4: a clerical error, over a Stormy Daniel's payoff or whatever 490 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:30,160 Speaker 4: hush money or whatever they're calling it. Then it would 491 00:25:30,320 --> 00:25:33,199 Speaker 4: just allow the American people to say, do I or 492 00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 4: do I not want Donald Trump to be president for 493 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 4: four more years? That's it. That's insane. I mean, this 494 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 4: is this is the decision that we're being faced with 495 00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:43,639 Speaker 4: as a country, or rather the decision they want to 496 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 4: deny us as a country based upon what exactly and 497 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 4: the moment you dig into a clay. It's all just 498 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 4: so flimsy and underhanded. 499 00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:55,600 Speaker 2: It's one hundred percent what it is. 500 00:25:55,840 --> 00:25:58,880 Speaker 3: And I wonder how many people that are in general 501 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 3: not paying that much attention, ultimately coming to that same conclusion. 502 00:26:02,640 --> 00:26:04,399 Speaker 3: If the guy's so bad, how come they can't just 503 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:08,720 Speaker 3: let everybody go vote. Let the American people decide whether 504 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 3: Trump is able to or not able to be the 505 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:16,080 Speaker 3: next president of the United States. That's how democracy works. 506 00:26:17,280 --> 00:26:21,280 Speaker 1: You're listening to twenty four The Most Important Tier in 507 00:26:21,400 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 1: Politics with Clay Travis and Bock Sexton. 508 00:26:26,840 --> 00:26:29,240 Speaker 3: Yesterday, when we finished the show, there had been two 509 00:26:29,359 --> 00:26:33,399 Speaker 3: jurors removed from the Trump jury, and I said that 510 00:26:33,440 --> 00:26:36,440 Speaker 3: it felt like things were spiraling out of control there. 511 00:26:36,920 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 3: Then after we got off the air, they had a 512 00:26:40,880 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 3: rapid level of success and they managed the seat. 513 00:26:45,840 --> 00:26:48,960 Speaker 2: All of the new jur jury here. 514 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:51,800 Speaker 3: So we now have I believe the number is twelve 515 00:26:51,920 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 3: jurors seated one alternate in the Trump criminal trial. They 516 00:26:56,840 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 3: are on track, they say, to start this trial on Monday. 517 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:05,240 Speaker 3: Court is taking place today. They are trying to get 518 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:11,000 Speaker 3: more alternate seated, up to six total alternates. But those 519 00:27:11,160 --> 00:27:14,359 Speaker 3: alternate jurors would be in the courtroom and they would 520 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 3: be watching, but they would only have a say in 521 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 3: the outcome. 522 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:21,400 Speaker 2: Of the case. If other jurors. 523 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:25,439 Speaker 3: That is the twelve initially seated jurors were forced out, 524 00:27:25,720 --> 00:27:30,400 Speaker 3: and we now have pretty good biographical descriptions of all 525 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:33,199 Speaker 3: of the jurors in this case, and I wanted to 526 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,760 Speaker 3: walk through them with you, as Buck and Eye did 527 00:27:35,800 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 3: when there were seven seeded. A big part of how 528 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,640 Speaker 3: a case is going to go, particularly one like this 529 00:27:42,720 --> 00:27:45,840 Speaker 3: where we know there is a rigged jury that is 530 00:27:45,960 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 3: likely to be very much in favor of Alvin Bragg, 531 00:27:48,880 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 3: the state of New York and opposed to Donald Trump. 532 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 3: I want to run through what we know about the 533 00:27:54,840 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 3: twelve jurors that have been seated at this point in time. 534 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:02,439 Speaker 3: And I'm reading from the New York Times. Jur Number 535 00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:07,439 Speaker 3: one works in sales, lives in West Harlem. This is 536 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 3: our Irish buddy, uh. 537 00:28:09,600 --> 00:28:10,040 Speaker 2: He said. 538 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:13,840 Speaker 3: He enjoys outdoor activities, gets his news from the New 539 00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:18,959 Speaker 3: York Times, watches Fox News and MSNBC, which I'm sorry 540 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:22,199 Speaker 3: sounds like you're lying to me if you say you 541 00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 3: watch Fox News and MSNBC, unless you're me or Buck 542 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,480 Speaker 3: and your job is to analyze the media. I don't 543 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,760 Speaker 3: think there are actually very many people who watch both 544 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,560 Speaker 3: of those. He said He's heard about some of former 545 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:39,600 Speaker 3: President Donald Trump's other criminal cases, but didn't have an 546 00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:43,920 Speaker 3: opinion about him. Juror one's going to vote to convict. Okay, 547 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 3: just based on this biographical sketch. Irish guy who lives 548 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 3: in Harlem claims that he gets his news from Fox 549 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:59,480 Speaker 3: News and MSNBC. I'm sorry, this guy hates Trump. He's 550 00:28:59,520 --> 00:29:03,400 Speaker 3: going to vote convict. This is my analysis. By the way, 551 00:29:03,840 --> 00:29:06,760 Speaker 3: people out there goes say Blake Travis told you exactly 552 00:29:06,800 --> 00:29:09,200 Speaker 3: what all the juries are gonna GERM members are gonna do. 553 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:13,640 Speaker 3: He's jury tampering again. Put him in handcuffs, put him 554 00:29:13,680 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 3: in prison. So far, I've not been arrested. Trust me, 555 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 3: you'll know if I am arrested. This is my opinion, 556 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:24,320 Speaker 3: analyzing based on the biographical information provided by the New 557 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 3: York Times, which is where I'm reading this from. Jur 558 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 3: two works in finance, lives in Hell's kitchen. He said 559 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,960 Speaker 3: he likes hiking, music concerts and enjoying New York City. 560 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:41,760 Speaker 3: He said he follows mister Trump's former fixer Michael Cohen 561 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 3: on social media, but he also said he follows figures 562 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 3: like Kelly Ann Conway. He said he believed mister Trump 563 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 3: had done some good for the country, adding it goes 564 00:29:54,880 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 3: both ways. I'm sorry if you follow Michael Cohen on 565 00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 3: Twitter you hate Trump. This guy is not voting that 566 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:12,480 Speaker 3: Trump is not guilty. I'm sorry you follow Michael Cohen. 567 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:16,440 Speaker 3: That should be a strike to me. This feels like 568 00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 3: the first two guys here are definitely likely to vote 569 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:26,440 Speaker 3: that Trump is guilty. Jur three, works in the legal field, 570 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:30,720 Speaker 3: lives in Chelsea, said he doesn't follow the news, but 571 00:30:30,880 --> 00:30:33,720 Speaker 3: when he does, he reads the New York Times, the 572 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:37,880 Speaker 3: Wall Street Journal, and finds articles using Google. He said 573 00:30:37,920 --> 00:30:43,560 Speaker 3: he was not very familiar with mister Trump's other criminal cases. Again, 574 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,200 Speaker 3: this is a guilty verdict. I think we got three 575 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:51,800 Speaker 3: bad jurors for Trump so far. Jur four, engineer from 576 00:30:51,840 --> 00:30:56,480 Speaker 3: the Upper West Side, asked how he was during jury selection. 577 00:30:56,680 --> 00:31:00,800 Speaker 3: He responded, I'm freezing. When when you're asked if he 578 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 3: had strong feelings about mister Trump, he responded, no, not really. 579 00:31:06,400 --> 00:31:09,600 Speaker 3: Now evidently the courtroom has really been cold. So that's 580 00:31:09,680 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 3: kind of a funny answer as you kind of break 581 00:31:12,920 --> 00:31:18,160 Speaker 3: down here. But I don't buy into the idea that 582 00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 3: anybody sitting in a jury pool in Manhattan doesn't have 583 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,680 Speaker 3: strong feelings about Trump. When you say no, not really, 584 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:30,840 Speaker 3: it feels to me like you're covering things up. Juror 585 00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:36,440 Speaker 3: five works in education and is from Harlem. She said 586 00:31:36,480 --> 00:31:40,560 Speaker 3: she tries to avoid political conversations, doesn't care for news. 587 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 3: She said she appreciates mister Trump's candor. President Trump speaks 588 00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:49,000 Speaker 3: his mind. I would rather that in a person than 589 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:51,600 Speaker 3: someone who's in office and you don't know what they're 590 00:31:51,640 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 3: doing behind the scenes. Black woman in education from Harlem. 591 00:31:57,400 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 3: She is not voting. Not guilty, I'm sorry. Juror six 592 00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 3: works in technology, lives in Chelsea. Gets her news from 593 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:10,480 Speaker 3: The New York Times, Google, Facebook, and TikTok. 594 00:32:10,680 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 2: Oh God. 595 00:32:12,040 --> 00:32:15,280 Speaker 3: She said she probably has different beliefs than mister Trump, 596 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:19,640 Speaker 3: but quote, this is a free country. I you know, 597 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:26,080 Speaker 3: young woman gets her information from TikTok, disagrees with Trump, 598 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,960 Speaker 3: but believes it's a free country. Lives in Chelsea. I 599 00:32:28,960 --> 00:32:33,200 Speaker 3: think we're oh for six guys, first six jurors. I 600 00:32:33,240 --> 00:32:37,320 Speaker 3: think we are zero for six. Now let me bring 601 00:32:37,400 --> 00:32:40,360 Speaker 3: in producer Alli, who didn't know I was going to 602 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,920 Speaker 3: pull her up here. But you live in New York City, 603 00:32:43,960 --> 00:32:46,080 Speaker 3: You've lived in New York City for a long time. 604 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:50,960 Speaker 3: Is there anything in these first six jurors biographical details 605 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,920 Speaker 3: that you think I'm missing or as they are being 606 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:57,720 Speaker 3: described and as I am reading them to you from 607 00:32:57,800 --> 00:33:00,640 Speaker 3: the New York Times, are you with me that this 608 00:33:00,680 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 3: does not sound like a very favorable jury pool to Trump. 609 00:33:04,120 --> 00:33:07,959 Speaker 5: Absolutely not, And having just done jury duty myself like 610 00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:11,440 Speaker 5: two months ago, I don't have a good feeling about 611 00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:11,960 Speaker 5: this at all. 612 00:33:12,600 --> 00:33:12,800 Speaker 8: No. 613 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 3: And there's nothing that is from these first six jurors 614 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 3: that is someone living in New York City would make 615 00:33:18,800 --> 00:33:21,200 Speaker 3: you think for a moment, just based on the neighborhoods 616 00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:23,960 Speaker 3: or any of these descriptions, oh that could be favorable. 617 00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:25,440 Speaker 8: No, absolutely not. 618 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 3: Okay, this is not good. All right, So that's the 619 00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:29,280 Speaker 3: first six. I'm going to hit you the next six 620 00:33:29,320 --> 00:33:31,239 Speaker 3: in a minute here, But I want to tell you 621 00:33:31,280 --> 00:33:35,160 Speaker 3: a story too. Ali just said she had done jury 622 00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:40,320 Speaker 3: duty recently. I do think there's a significant factor here 623 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:42,760 Speaker 3: that I'm going to discuss in a little bit. It 624 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:46,240 Speaker 3: is there are two lawyers that have been seated on 625 00:33:46,280 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 3: this jury pool and they weren't stricken. You have the ability, 626 00:33:50,840 --> 00:33:54,440 Speaker 3: as the defense or the prosecution to just strike jurors 627 00:33:54,440 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 3: that you think are going to be uniquely disfavorable to you. 628 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 3: And I have been on jury duty only once in 629 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 3: my life, I've only been called once and it was 630 00:34:06,760 --> 00:34:13,200 Speaker 3: a mall Santa dispute. Guy was a mall Santa and 631 00:34:13,280 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 3: somehow he had gotten into a contract dispute. I mean, 632 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:20,239 Speaker 3: he legitimately looked like Santa Claus sitting at the plainiff 633 00:34:20,360 --> 00:34:23,040 Speaker 3: table he was suing. I think it was a mall 634 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:27,200 Speaker 3: over a contract dispute when he was playing Santa Claus 635 00:34:27,320 --> 00:34:29,600 Speaker 3: in the mall. Sorry, when he was This was not 636 00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:31,920 Speaker 3: the real Santa Claus. For the kids out there that 637 00:34:31,960 --> 00:34:34,760 Speaker 3: are in the car, Santa Claus was not on trial, 638 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:38,560 Speaker 3: not the real Santa Claus. This was a pretend Santa Claus. 639 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:44,000 Speaker 3: And so pretend Santa Claus is there. And I actually 640 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:48,200 Speaker 3: got seated in the jury in the jury seating area, 641 00:34:48,440 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 3: I was going to be on this jury. And then 642 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:57,480 Speaker 3: by mutual agreement, the plaintiff and defense lawyer recognized me 643 00:34:57,560 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 3: because at the time I was doing sports talker radio 644 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,720 Speaker 3: and they both said they liked listening to the radio show. 645 00:35:05,239 --> 00:35:08,600 Speaker 3: So by mutual agreement, they were going to allow me 646 00:35:09,040 --> 00:35:10,960 Speaker 3: to not have to serve on the jury so they 647 00:35:11,000 --> 00:35:13,239 Speaker 3: could listen to me talk about sports. This is all 648 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:16,319 Speaker 3: one hundred percent tury. That's the only time I've ever 649 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 3: been called and actually been into a courtroom. I thought 650 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:24,319 Speaker 3: I would get knocked and taken off because I am 651 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:25,040 Speaker 3: a lawyer. 652 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,440 Speaker 2: They didn't do that. They took me off because I 653 00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:29,520 Speaker 2: happened to do radio. 654 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 3: It's very strange, I would say, incredibly rare. When I 655 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:38,520 Speaker 3: come back, I'm going to go through the other six jurors. 656 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:43,520 Speaker 3: This almost never happens that you would have two lawyers 657 00:35:43,600 --> 00:35:47,440 Speaker 3: sitting on a trial. Usually they get knocked off. This 658 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:55,360 Speaker 3: trial super fascinating, big gamble, I would say, from both sides, 659 00:35:55,760 --> 00:36:00,160 Speaker 3: to allow this guy to continue. And so I think 660 00:36:00,200 --> 00:36:03,680 Speaker 3: this is very very interesting to contemplate rolling through the 661 00:36:03,760 --> 00:36:06,760 Speaker 3: jury that the first six, I said is not good. 662 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 3: I'm struggling to find any positivity here. Juror seven works 663 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 3: in the legal field, lives on the Upper East Side. 664 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,600 Speaker 3: He said he's aware of mister Trump's other cases, doesn't 665 00:36:18,600 --> 00:36:21,880 Speaker 3: have an opinion about his character. Said he had political 666 00:36:21,960 --> 00:36:25,360 Speaker 3: views on the Trump presidency, agreeing with some policies and 667 00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:31,919 Speaker 3: disagreeing with others. Again, not a big not a big 668 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:35,640 Speaker 3: fan of Jury number seven either. And I think to 669 00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:38,040 Speaker 3: the extent that I'm talking about the fact that there 670 00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:41,520 Speaker 3: are two lawyers on this case, if you're a lawyer 671 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:44,879 Speaker 3: in New York City, I think the political pressure on 672 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 3: you to vote to convict is going to be off 673 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:50,919 Speaker 3: the charts because there are very few lawyers who work 674 00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:55,520 Speaker 3: in law firms that would even represent Trump. His defense 675 00:36:55,600 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 3: attorney had to leave a big law firm because they 676 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,200 Speaker 3: were so angry at the fact that he was willing 677 00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 3: to represent Trump. This is a big issue in the 678 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 3: law that doesn't get a lot of attention. How woke 679 00:37:10,760 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 3: law firms have become is off the charts. Their diversity 680 00:37:16,760 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 3: quotas in terms of the warriors who represent companies. Now 681 00:37:21,360 --> 00:37:24,480 Speaker 3: you don't hear a lot of discussion about this. A 682 00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 3: lot of law firms require diverse representation now and or 683 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,240 Speaker 3: the clients require it. They don't require the best lawyer anymore. 684 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 3: They want there to be twenty percent minority, thirty five 685 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:39,319 Speaker 3: percent female representation. 686 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:40,080 Speaker 2: It's crazy. 687 00:37:40,800 --> 00:37:42,680 Speaker 3: As somebody who worked in a law firm and as 688 00:37:42,719 --> 00:37:46,120 Speaker 3: someone who employs lawyers, I don't care about anything other 689 00:37:46,200 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 3: than are you the best of the legal representation that 690 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:49,520 Speaker 3: I can afford. 691 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:50,560 Speaker 2: It's crazy. 692 00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:55,319 Speaker 3: J're eight Upper East Side, worked in finance, said he 693 00:37:55,400 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 3: reads The New York Times, Wall Street Journal and watches 694 00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 3: CNBC and the BBC. He enjoys fly fishing, skiing, and yoga. 695 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:09,160 Speaker 3: During jury selection, he said he had no opinions or 696 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 3: beliefs that would prevent him from being impartial. 697 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,200 Speaker 2: Ali, you're the yogay. 698 00:38:15,239 --> 00:38:17,400 Speaker 3: Do you think that anybody that you work out with 699 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:22,120 Speaker 3: in doing yoga in Manhattan other than you would be 700 00:38:22,200 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 3: willing to vote not guilty for Trump on a criminal trial? 701 00:38:25,719 --> 00:38:29,040 Speaker 2: Ooh, that's a tough one, Clay. Is it hot yoga? 702 00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:30,880 Speaker 2: Does the yoga matter? 703 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 3: Is you think hot yoga or is cold yoga is 704 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:38,960 Speaker 3: more likely to be favorable than Trump? I don't think 705 00:38:39,000 --> 00:38:42,560 Speaker 3: it's looking good yoga. Like, there are a few hobbies 706 00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 3: that I see and I say, you are not going 707 00:38:45,320 --> 00:38:46,360 Speaker 3: to be a Trump person. 708 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:47,640 Speaker 2: Yoga is one of them. 709 00:38:47,680 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 3: And I know I'm gonna get deluge from all the 710 00:38:49,480 --> 00:38:52,000 Speaker 3: yoga people who are big Trump people. Now you're in 711 00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 3: a substantial minority, especially if you're in New York City. 712 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:57,480 Speaker 5: Okay, Yeah, there's New York yoga, and then there's yoga 713 00:38:57,680 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 5: and other. 714 00:38:58,040 --> 00:38:59,800 Speaker 2: Places that I wouldn't say the same. 715 00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, like Birmingham, Alabama yoga might be different than New 716 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:05,160 Speaker 3: York City yoga. But we're talking about New York City 717 00:39:05,239 --> 00:39:06,000 Speaker 3: yoga right now. 718 00:39:06,440 --> 00:39:06,560 Speaker 8: Uh. 719 00:39:07,360 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 3: Jurre nine works in education from the Upper East Side. 720 00:39:13,360 --> 00:39:17,040 Speaker 3: She said of Trump, he was our president. Everybody knows 721 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:20,440 Speaker 3: who he is, adding that when he was in office, 722 00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:23,840 Speaker 3: everyone was kind of talking about politics. Yeah, that's a guilty. 723 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:28,080 Speaker 3: I mean, this is not a good jury. Jur Ten 724 00:39:29,320 --> 00:39:32,960 Speaker 3: businessman who lives in Murray Hill. Ali, where's murray Hill? 725 00:39:33,000 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 3: What does that tell us? 726 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:36,160 Speaker 2: Actually, that's not far from me in the East village. 727 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:41,080 Speaker 3: Okay said he doesn't follow the news, adding, if anything, 728 00:39:41,120 --> 00:39:44,200 Speaker 3: it's the New York Times. Said he likes listening to 729 00:39:44,280 --> 00:39:49,239 Speaker 3: podcasts on behavioral psychology, adding it's my hobby. Said he 730 00:39:49,280 --> 00:39:52,919 Speaker 3: does not have a strong opinion on Trump. All right, 731 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 3: those are the first ten. I'm not feeling good about 732 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:59,839 Speaker 3: any of them. I felt good yesterday a little bit, 733 00:40:00,600 --> 00:40:04,879 Speaker 3: not anywhere near very optimistic right now. I would love 734 00:40:04,920 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 3: to hear from Trump's defense attorney if he's optimistic about 735 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:08,520 Speaker 3: any of these guys. 736 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:10,600 Speaker 2: Honestly or gals. 737 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:16,759 Speaker 1: You're listening to twenty four The Most Important Tear in 738 00:40:16,840 --> 00:40:18,960 Speaker 1: Politics with Clay Travis d. 739 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:19,880 Speaker 2: Buck Sexton. 740 00:40:22,480 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 3: We bring in now Andy McCarthy, who is I bet 741 00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:30,320 Speaker 3: doing more media than he's ever done in his entire life. Andy, 742 00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:34,239 Speaker 3: we got seven jurors seated so far. How would you 743 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 3: assess the way this trial is going right now? Has 744 00:40:37,200 --> 00:40:40,759 Speaker 3: anything surprised you? Where are we from your perspective? 745 00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:45,600 Speaker 8: The pace the jury selection has really surprised me because 746 00:40:46,560 --> 00:40:49,840 Speaker 8: you mentioned media when we were doing it on Monday. 747 00:40:49,880 --> 00:40:52,520 Speaker 8: I guess, you know, I try to warn people ahead 748 00:40:52,560 --> 00:40:55,840 Speaker 8: of time that nothing really happens during jury selection. It 749 00:40:55,920 --> 00:40:58,760 Speaker 8: was you know, obviously it's historic that it's the first 750 00:40:58,840 --> 00:41:01,480 Speaker 8: formal day of the true I live against the first 751 00:41:02,080 --> 00:41:06,560 Speaker 8: former president who happens to be the de facto Republican nominee. 752 00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:10,520 Speaker 8: But nothing much was going to happen, and nothing seemed 753 00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:13,000 Speaker 8: to happen the first day. A few rulings that were interesting, 754 00:41:13,040 --> 00:41:18,160 Speaker 8: but beyond that, not much. And the estimates play were 755 00:41:18,200 --> 00:41:22,080 Speaker 8: that they thought it might take until early May you 756 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,880 Speaker 8: get a jury because of the glacial pace of Monday. 757 00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:28,400 Speaker 8: But then the thing picked up like a rocket Tuesday, 758 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,200 Speaker 8: and you know, they could they could have a setback tomorrow. 759 00:41:32,280 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 8: But the you know, to the extent the judge that 760 00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 8: he may have a jury fully selected by Friday. That's 761 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:38,800 Speaker 8: entirely possible. 762 00:41:39,680 --> 00:41:42,359 Speaker 4: Any thanks for being with us. You know, we're gonna 763 00:41:42,360 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 4: have to keep you for another segment. We have too 764 00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:47,000 Speaker 4: many questions, so just get ready for that. But one 765 00:41:47,000 --> 00:41:49,200 Speaker 4: thing that we've been wondering about, or I've been I've 766 00:41:49,239 --> 00:41:53,480 Speaker 4: been wondering about, particularly this whole notion of a an 767 00:41:53,520 --> 00:41:56,840 Speaker 4: impartial jury for Trump in New York City on this case, 768 00:41:57,400 --> 00:42:00,480 Speaker 4: it seems to me, like I understand, you know, you 769 00:42:00,920 --> 00:42:03,279 Speaker 4: go to trial with the justice system you have, and 770 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:04,520 Speaker 4: you know, it's kind of like you go to war 771 00:42:04,560 --> 00:42:06,280 Speaker 4: with the army you have. This is what we got 772 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:08,920 Speaker 4: is trial by jury system, and in general it's very 773 00:42:09,040 --> 00:42:11,360 Speaker 4: very good. But to me, it just seems like a farce. 774 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:14,920 Speaker 4: I mean, some of the people that are already it seems, 775 00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:19,040 Speaker 4: have been in contention are obviously anti Trump, Like, how 776 00:42:19,040 --> 00:42:21,360 Speaker 4: do we get is that just baked in at this point? 777 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:26,160 Speaker 8: Well, you know, the thing is that you're not. The 778 00:42:26,200 --> 00:42:29,240 Speaker 8: idea is not to get people who all like Trump, 779 00:42:31,080 --> 00:42:34,600 Speaker 8: or who all like Bragg for that matter, because there's 780 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:37,640 Speaker 8: a lot of resentment against Bragg in Manhattan too. A 781 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 8: thing to remember about all this is that the people 782 00:42:42,360 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 8: the movement progressives who vote in elections like the one 783 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:52,600 Speaker 8: where Bragg was elected, that's a vanishingly small number of 784 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:56,400 Speaker 8: the people in Manhattan, and you know, they're very motivated, 785 00:42:56,480 --> 00:43:00,640 Speaker 8: so they kind of punch above their weight. Trump is 786 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,880 Speaker 8: apt to find a number of really good jurors in Manhattan. 787 00:43:04,000 --> 00:43:07,759 Speaker 8: I liked trying cases in Manhattan. Now, you know, that 788 00:43:07,920 --> 00:43:10,920 Speaker 8: was twenty years ago, and we were federal, so we 789 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:13,160 Speaker 8: were drawn from the Bronx in Westchester too, but we 790 00:43:13,200 --> 00:43:14,960 Speaker 8: had a lot of Manhattan jurors. I thought they were 791 00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 8: good jurors. The process is supposed to lend itself to 792 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:25,000 Speaker 8: a pretty searching examination of these jurors, so you can 793 00:43:25,040 --> 00:43:28,080 Speaker 8: make it discriminating choice about them. There's a lot of 794 00:43:28,160 --> 00:43:32,719 Speaker 8: latitude to move to remove people by choice. I have 795 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:36,000 Speaker 8: a bite for cause. Rather, I haven't heard too much 796 00:43:36,120 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 8: complaining that they wanted people removed from cause. The judge 797 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 8: refused to remove, which is part of why it's going faster. 798 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:45,960 Speaker 8: I think. I think they got rid of a lot 799 00:43:45,960 --> 00:43:50,240 Speaker 8: of cause objections the first day in one big fell swoop. 800 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:56,080 Speaker 8: But also remember, in terms of balance, even though if 801 00:43:56,080 --> 00:43:59,520 Speaker 8: you even if you accept as a premise that Manhattan 802 00:43:59,600 --> 00:44:03,439 Speaker 8: is cut against Trump, which it clearly is, Trump only 803 00:44:03,480 --> 00:44:07,520 Speaker 8: needs one, you know to win here. Yeah, Bragg needs twelve, 804 00:44:08,200 --> 00:44:10,959 Speaker 8: and that's a big difference when you have a case 805 00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:13,360 Speaker 8: like like Bragg has, which is a kind of a 806 00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:15,040 Speaker 8: dog's breakfast of a case. 807 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,320 Speaker 3: When we come back, I want to ask you this question, Andy, 808 00:44:18,360 --> 00:44:21,920 Speaker 3: what would happen if Trump were convicted? What's the process 809 00:44:21,960 --> 00:44:23,799 Speaker 3: that would play out? Thank you for joining us. You 810 00:44:23,840 --> 00:44:25,200 Speaker 3: good to come back for one more segment? 811 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:26,759 Speaker 8: Yeah, of course, great. 812 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:29,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, let's get to that like us. You know, are 813 00:44:29,080 --> 00:44:31,080 Speaker 4: they going to lock him up if they can? Is 814 00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:33,080 Speaker 4: really what we want to dive into. And what would 815 00:44:33,080 --> 00:44:34,960 Speaker 4: that look like? And how would this all work? What 816 00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:38,439 Speaker 4: the process is? Welcome back in Clay and Buck. All right, Andy, 817 00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:40,560 Speaker 4: let's dive right, and we're speaking to Andy McCarthy of 818 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:44,040 Speaker 4: National Review and Fox News twenty plus years Southern District 819 00:44:44,080 --> 00:44:50,280 Speaker 4: of New York prosecutor. Andy, if they find Trump guilty, 820 00:44:50,360 --> 00:44:52,920 Speaker 4: what do you think happens? I mean, give us the 821 00:44:53,000 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 4: timeline and the possible punishments, well. 822 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 8: Allowing the things of moving a little faster than we thought, 823 00:45:00,040 --> 00:45:02,280 Speaker 8: and we'll see if that continues. Let's say the trial 824 00:45:02,360 --> 00:45:08,759 Speaker 8: goes into mid to late May, maybe early June. If 825 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:11,560 Speaker 8: he were to get convicted, I think it matters a 826 00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:13,359 Speaker 8: lot what he gets convicted of and we can come 827 00:45:13,400 --> 00:45:16,120 Speaker 8: back around and talk about that. But let's assume, for arguments, 828 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:19,319 Speaker 8: say he gets convicted of one or more selonies in 829 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:22,880 Speaker 8: the indictment, which are all the charges of felonies in 830 00:45:22,920 --> 00:45:28,560 Speaker 8: the indictment, he would have a maximum sentences. I understand 831 00:45:28,600 --> 00:45:33,080 Speaker 8: the way New York groups statutory counts of four years 832 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:40,000 Speaker 8: and sentencing is normally about three months after a conviction. 833 00:45:41,280 --> 00:45:45,200 Speaker 8: This is a nonviolent crime. He's a first sender in 834 00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:49,240 Speaker 8: New York. He should not get a sentence of incarceration. 835 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,960 Speaker 8: But you know, if you would ask me about Alan Weiselberg, 836 00:45:53,000 --> 00:45:56,000 Speaker 8: who Bragg has prosecuted twice in the last two years, 837 00:45:56,040 --> 00:45:57,799 Speaker 8: I would have told you he shouldn't get one either. 838 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,520 Speaker 8: And they have him in now for I think second 839 00:46:00,600 --> 00:46:03,719 Speaker 8: five months stint at Rikers. So there'll be a lot 840 00:46:03,760 --> 00:46:07,719 Speaker 8: of pressure from the left, which certainly Brag and the 841 00:46:07,800 --> 00:46:12,759 Speaker 8: judge seemed to be very keen to to put him 842 00:46:12,800 --> 00:46:15,880 Speaker 8: in prison for some period of time. I think Trump 843 00:46:15,920 --> 00:46:20,560 Speaker 8: will be able to delay that. And my understanding is 844 00:46:20,600 --> 00:46:22,919 Speaker 8: the way New York appellate law works is that once 845 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:27,240 Speaker 8: he appeals, the sentence can be you know, any sentence 846 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:31,359 Speaker 8: imposed can be frozen. Until the appeal's done, and. 847 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,400 Speaker 2: The appeal would take well after the election. 848 00:46:34,440 --> 00:46:36,360 Speaker 8: Oh yeah, be into next year for sure. 849 00:46:37,560 --> 00:46:39,879 Speaker 3: And honestly, Andy, this is a crazy question. But given 850 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:43,120 Speaker 3: it to a state charge, he doesn't if he got 851 00:46:43,160 --> 00:46:47,279 Speaker 3: elected president? How do state charges that have already and 852 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:49,759 Speaker 3: I don't know what the president would be here because 853 00:46:49,760 --> 00:46:53,360 Speaker 3: there's truly never been one. How does state criminal charges 854 00:46:54,280 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 3: apply to a president of the United States if it 855 00:46:58,560 --> 00:47:01,400 Speaker 3: was a conviction that occurred prior to his election. 856 00:47:03,000 --> 00:47:05,680 Speaker 8: As you say, Clay, the most important thing is that 857 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:09,080 Speaker 8: this has never happened before, So you know, we're kind 858 00:47:09,080 --> 00:47:13,040 Speaker 8: of spitballing here. But my view would be the Trump 859 00:47:13,400 --> 00:47:18,880 Speaker 8: Justice Department would argue under the supremacy clause that any 860 00:47:20,360 --> 00:47:25,520 Speaker 8: sentence ought to be postponed until after his term is over. That, 861 00:47:25,600 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 8: in other words, the state can't execute a sentence that 862 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 8: would prevent the federal government from doing its ordinary functions. 863 00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:37,320 Speaker 8: And I kind of doubt that the state would fight 864 00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:39,920 Speaker 8: that point. I think you know what they want here 865 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:44,920 Speaker 8: is to get Trump convicted. You know, look, I've been 866 00:47:44,960 --> 00:47:47,040 Speaker 8: surprised by a lot of things, but I don't know. 867 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,480 Speaker 4: I know, we've got a million just I have to 868 00:47:49,520 --> 00:47:51,760 Speaker 4: ask this is there any chance that they could, Because Andy, 869 00:47:51,800 --> 00:47:54,800 Speaker 4: what they've done in DC is I call it warp speed, 870 00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:57,680 Speaker 4: right they've or ludicrous speed. They've moved faster in the 871 00:47:57,760 --> 00:48:00,880 Speaker 4: j six trial than all my friends or federal defense 872 00:48:00,880 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 4: attorneys and federal prosecutors say. 873 00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 2: Like ever happens. 874 00:48:03,880 --> 00:48:06,880 Speaker 4: Could they do the sentencing much sooner than three months 875 00:48:06,920 --> 00:48:08,120 Speaker 4: after if he's found guilty? 876 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:12,240 Speaker 8: You know they could try. I think his lawyers could 877 00:48:12,600 --> 00:48:14,400 Speaker 8: you know, tie that up for a while. But I 878 00:48:14,400 --> 00:48:17,560 Speaker 8: don't really see the big point of doing that, Buck, 879 00:48:17,680 --> 00:48:21,520 Speaker 8: because again, the appeal would mean they wouldn't be able 880 00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:24,719 Speaker 8: to execute the sentence, and what they really really want 881 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:27,319 Speaker 8: is to call him a convicted felon. I think how 882 00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:30,560 Speaker 8: much she gets sentenced with me beside the point, And 883 00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,840 Speaker 8: it could be scandalous if you put Trump in jail 884 00:48:34,480 --> 00:48:38,680 Speaker 8: when Bragg is taking serious, serious crimes and turning it 885 00:48:38,719 --> 00:48:41,760 Speaker 8: into turning them into misdemeanors or not charging them at all. 886 00:48:42,800 --> 00:48:45,120 Speaker 8: That's certainly not going to be helpful to Biden. 887 00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:50,680 Speaker 3: Andy, you heard about the left is fired up at 888 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:54,640 Speaker 3: me for my jury tweets and comments that I've made 889 00:48:54,680 --> 00:48:55,280 Speaker 3: on this show. 890 00:48:56,080 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 2: Do you think that. 891 00:48:57,000 --> 00:49:01,120 Speaker 3: I will be arrested for jury tampering, as Eric Swallwell 892 00:49:01,280 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 3: has requested, as Joy Read and CNN have requested, Well, 893 00:49:07,080 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 3: I would. 894 00:49:07,440 --> 00:49:10,120 Speaker 8: Say, no, Clay, but you know, I'm not in New 895 00:49:10,200 --> 00:49:14,279 Speaker 8: York today, and Alvin Bragg is the DA there. He's 896 00:49:14,360 --> 00:49:18,080 Speaker 8: got a different idea when you're on this side of 897 00:49:18,080 --> 00:49:21,200 Speaker 8: the political aisle than would be the case in the 898 00:49:21,239 --> 00:49:25,520 Speaker 8: normal case. In all seriousness, I think that you know, 899 00:49:25,560 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 8: what you said is not something I would say. But 900 00:49:29,080 --> 00:49:34,280 Speaker 8: it's not the crime of jury tampering. It's basically First 901 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:40,239 Speaker 8: Amendment free speech. I'm you know, I like the jury system. 902 00:49:40,600 --> 00:49:43,280 Speaker 8: I'm one of these You still. 903 00:49:43,040 --> 00:49:45,360 Speaker 4: Have some faith in Andy, which I appreciate. I'm not 904 00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:47,600 Speaker 4: sure I do as much, especially seeing what we're seeing 905 00:49:47,640 --> 00:49:49,839 Speaker 4: for some of these jurors. But you know, the best 906 00:49:49,840 --> 00:49:50,839 Speaker 4: thing we got, I get it. 907 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:52,959 Speaker 8: Yeah. But you know, one of the things we talked 908 00:49:53,000 --> 00:49:57,279 Speaker 8: about just probably a month ago was how ridiculous it 909 00:49:57,400 --> 00:50:00,359 Speaker 8: was that the civil fraud trial was just a enstro 910 00:50:00,520 --> 00:50:03,319 Speaker 8: in front of and geron right. And I think the 911 00:50:03,360 --> 00:50:05,879 Speaker 8: only reason for making that point is because it's more 912 00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:08,880 Speaker 8: fair to have a jury trial, And implicit in that 913 00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,800 Speaker 8: is that we think that, you know, twelve sensible people 914 00:50:12,520 --> 00:50:15,040 Speaker 8: are more likely to come to a correct result than 915 00:50:15,080 --> 00:50:18,160 Speaker 8: one movement progressive. So you know that's I'm still banking 916 00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:18,520 Speaker 8: on that. 917 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:21,800 Speaker 3: If if there were a mistrial, let's say they couldn't 918 00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:24,680 Speaker 3: get a verdict, there's no way they could get a 919 00:50:24,800 --> 00:50:28,319 Speaker 3: case rescheduled, right, This would basically be Bragg falling on 920 00:50:28,400 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 3: his face if in some way he doesn't get the 921 00:50:30,560 --> 00:50:31,320 Speaker 3: felony conviction. 922 00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:34,719 Speaker 8: Yeah, I think I think number one would be ridiculous 923 00:50:34,719 --> 00:50:36,560 Speaker 8: if he wanted to try it again, because if they 924 00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:39,680 Speaker 8: don't get him on this, it's going to because it's 925 00:50:39,719 --> 00:50:41,959 Speaker 8: going to be because it's a ridiculous case, which Bragg 926 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:44,439 Speaker 8: knew in the first place, and that's why he shut 927 00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:47,120 Speaker 8: it down in twenty twenty two. If they don't get 928 00:50:47,120 --> 00:50:49,160 Speaker 8: a conviction, it's going to be because of things like 929 00:50:49,200 --> 00:50:53,960 Speaker 8: Michael Comb, which doesn't get better over time. But the 930 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:57,480 Speaker 8: other thing, just to be totally practical about it, is 931 00:50:57,520 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 8: Trump's dance cards going to be filled up with uh, 932 00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:04,040 Speaker 8: you know, classified information proceedings down in the Florida case 933 00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:07,439 Speaker 8: and all of the pre trial stuff in the Washington case. 934 00:51:07,560 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 8: The the the j sixth case is going to start 935 00:51:11,120 --> 00:51:14,560 Speaker 8: up again once the Supreme Court rules on immunity because 936 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,640 Speaker 8: when they rule on immunity, Assuming they rule against Trump, 937 00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:21,160 Speaker 8: which I do, then the case is good. The jurisdiction 938 00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:22,400 Speaker 8: off of the case is going to go back to 939 00:51:22,440 --> 00:51:24,800 Speaker 8: Judge chuck In and she's going to start having hearings 940 00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:26,360 Speaker 8: and putting the pedal to the medal. 941 00:51:26,560 --> 00:51:28,960 Speaker 4: Well, the good news. It sounds like Andy, neither Trump 942 00:51:29,120 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 4: nor Clay are going to the Big House and going 943 00:51:32,120 --> 00:51:34,560 Speaker 4: to be cellmates, perhaps having to pick who gets top 944 00:51:34,600 --> 00:51:35,560 Speaker 4: bunk anytime soon. 945 00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:40,840 Speaker 8: Let's let's let's pray for that outcome. I agree with that. 946 00:51:41,239 --> 00:51:44,080 Speaker 2: Pray for it to be television shows. 947 00:51:45,200 --> 00:51:47,719 Speaker 4: And when Clay was on, when the heat was turned 948 00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:49,680 Speaker 4: up on Clay, you know what he said, I'd love 949 00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:51,759 Speaker 4: to have Andy as my defender if I if I 950 00:51:51,800 --> 00:51:54,160 Speaker 4: did say that, I would, I would, I would, I 951 00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:55,879 Speaker 4: would hire You might make some money off this before 952 00:51:55,880 --> 00:51:57,840 Speaker 4: all of a sudden, Yeah. 953 00:51:57,160 --> 00:51:58,759 Speaker 8: I might come out of retirement for that. 954 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:01,440 Speaker 4: Casere we go, all right, everybody,
