Donald Trump has officially become the 10 00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 2: first current or former president to face criminal charges. He 11 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 2: faces thirty four counts of falsifying business records, with the 12 00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:46,919 Speaker 2: charges relating to three separate instances of allegedly covering up 13 00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:51,239 Speaker 2: hush money payments as election expenses. Virtually everybody that has 14 00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:55,400 Speaker 2: looked for this case say there is no crime and 15 00:00:55,520 --> 00:00:57,840 Speaker 2: that it should never. 16 00:00:57,400 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 1: Have been broad. 17 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,880 Speaker 2: So what happens next and what does this all mean 18 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,240 Speaker 2: for Trump's twenty twenty four presidential campaign. We'll let you 19 00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,880 Speaker 2: know in the deep dive. But first hourrah the headlines. 20 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 3: There was big news yesterday with the Liberal party announcing 21 00:01:15,959 --> 00:01:19,399 Speaker 3: they will formally oppose the Indigenous Voice to Parliament. Federal 22 00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:23,360 Speaker 3: leader Peter Dunnan said a constitutionally enshrined voice, which will 23 00:01:23,400 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 3: be the subject of a referendum later this year, was 24 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:29,360 Speaker 3: quote divisive and not a system that would serve our 25 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 3: country well. Labour's Indigenous Australians Minister Linda Burney said that 26 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 3: Dudden's criticism of the Voice was quote predictable. 27 00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 2: RBA Governor Philip Lowe said the decision to pause the 28 00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:46,039 Speaker 2: cash rate increases on Tuesday quote does not imply that 29 00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 2: further increases won't be on the way. He spoke at 30 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 2: the National Press Club yesterday, and Loe said that the 31 00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:55,200 Speaker 2: board expects further efforts to bring down inflation will be needed. 32 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 2: The decision to keep the cash rate at three point 33 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 2: six percent this week was the first time since last 34 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 2: year that the Reserve Bank didn't increase the rate. 35 00:02:05,480 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 3: The man who kidnapped Cleo Smith in Regional Wa in 36 00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:12,200 Speaker 3: October twenty twenty one was sentenced to thirteen years and 37 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 3: six months in prison. On Wednesday. Cleo was asleep at 38 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,959 Speaker 3: a holiday campsite with her family when she was taken 39 00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,400 Speaker 3: by Terence Kelly, who was using methamphetamine at the time. 40 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,400 Speaker 3: Police found her at the home of Kelly, about seventy 41 00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 3: kilometers away from where she was first taken, eighteen days 42 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 3: after the kidnapping. 43 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,400 Speaker 2: And today's good news, Michelle Lee has become the first 44 00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,400 Speaker 2: woman to complete the solo row across the Pacific Ocean 45 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:40,519 Speaker 2: after completing the journey from Mexico to Queensland yesterday. Lee 46 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,799 Speaker 2: is a Sydneysider and she started her fourteen thousand kilometer 47 00:02:43,919 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 2: journey in August of last year. Ever since former US 48 00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 2: President Donald Trump put on his social network truth Social 49 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 2: that he was going to be arrested a few weeks ago, 50 00:02:56,560 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 2: we've been waiting to see what would actually happen. Day 51 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,600 Speaker 2: we got some answers after Trump was formally charged following 52 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 2: an investigation into whether he indirectly paid one hundred and 53 00:03:06,800 --> 00:03:09,839 Speaker 2: thirty thousand dollars in hush money to adult film star 54 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:11,160 Speaker 2: Stormy Daniels. 55 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:14,239 Speaker 3: We spoke about the indictment a couple of weeks ago 56 00:03:14,280 --> 00:03:15,920 Speaker 3: on this part, and now we've moved on to the 57 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 3: charges part of this whole story. So can you just 58 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 3: actually run us through what it is exactly that Trump 59 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:22,760 Speaker 3: is being charged with. 60 00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:26,440 Speaker 2: So the former president's been charged with thirty four counts 61 00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 2: of falsifying business records. He's pleaded not guilty to all charges. 62 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 2: Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who was leading this investigation 63 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,640 Speaker 2: into Trump, described his alleged crimes as a catch and 64 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:39,400 Speaker 2: kill scheme. 65 00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 4: That is, a scheme to buy and suppress negative information 66 00:03:45,320 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 4: to help mister Trump's chance of winning the election. As 67 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 4: part of this scheme, Donald Trump and others made three 68 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 4: payments to people who claim to have negative information about 69 00:03:57,280 --> 00:03:57,920 Speaker 4: mister Trump. 70 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 2: And all of this Zara makes Donald Trump the first 71 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 2: current or former US president to be actually charged with 72 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 2: a crime. 73 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,520 Speaker 3: I want to unpack the charges though, a little more, 74 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 3: because it all relates to so called hush money. I 75 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,360 Speaker 3: swear we've never said hush money as much as we 76 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,400 Speaker 3: have in the last couple of weeks. But paying someone 77 00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:18,600 Speaker 3: hush money isn't actually the crime here, is it. 78 00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,400 Speaker 2: You're exactly right, So hush money or the idea of 79 00:04:21,440 --> 00:04:25,160 Speaker 2: paying off someone to buy their silence, isn't itself illegal. 80 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 2: What Trump has been charged with here is falsifying business records. 81 00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 2: So not properly declaring those alleged hush money payments and 82 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,599 Speaker 2: instead calling them legal expenses. So, as I said before, 83 00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,359 Speaker 2: Trump has been charged with thirty four offenses, but I 84 00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 2: want to make it really clear that doesn't mean he's 85 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,479 Speaker 2: been charged with thirty four different hush payments to thirty 86 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 2: four different people. The charges all relate to a couple 87 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,880 Speaker 2: of examples of hush money payments, specifically at the Core 88 00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 2: and one hundred and thirty thousand US dollar payment to 89 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:57,400 Speaker 2: adult film star Stormy Daniels to prevent her from speaking 90 00:04:57,480 --> 00:05:01,960 Speaker 2: out about an alleged affair. Attorney also cited two other 91 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:06,080 Speaker 2: alleged hush money payments as evidence of more alleged criminal wrongdoing. 92 00:05:06,440 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 2: There was a thirty thousand US dollar payment to a 93 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 2: dorman at Trump Tower who was trying to sell information 94 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,880 Speaker 2: about a child Trump had allegedly had with a woman 95 00:05:14,920 --> 00:05:17,760 Speaker 2: who wasn't his wife, and finally, a one hundred and 96 00:05:17,760 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 2: fifty thousand US dollar payment to a woman who alleged 97 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,359 Speaker 2: she had sex with Trump. Now Manhattan District Attorney Alvin 98 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 2: Bragg said it was false statements made about these payments 99 00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 2: that violated New York law. 100 00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:32,839 Speaker 4: To make these payments, they set up shell companies, and 101 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,560 Speaker 4: they made yet more false statements, including for example, in 102 00:05:36,680 --> 00:05:41,760 Speaker 4: Ami American Media Corporates business records. The conduct I just 103 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:45,960 Speaker 4: described and that which was charged by the grand jury 104 00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:49,200 Speaker 4: is felony criminal conduct in New York State. 105 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 2: Bragg also alleges that Trump violated electoral law by promoting 106 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 2: his candidacy by unlawful means, and that the one hundred 107 00:05:57,720 --> 00:06:00,799 Speaker 2: and thirty thousand dollar payment to store Me Daniel violated 108 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 2: the federal campaign contribution cap so how much money you 109 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 2: can give to your election efforts. And because of that allegation, 110 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,840 Speaker 2: Trump is also being charged with using a crime falsifying 111 00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 2: records to cover up another crime, breaking campaign laws. 112 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 4: That is exactly what this case is about. Thirty four 113 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 4: false statements made to cover up other crimes. These are 114 00:06:25,400 --> 00:06:29,880 Speaker 4: felony crimes in New York State. No matter who you are, 115 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 4: we cannot and will not normalize serious criminal conduct. 116 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,640 Speaker 3: So what does it actually mean now that he's been charged? 117 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 3: How is that different from the indictment. 118 00:06:40,880 --> 00:06:42,400 Speaker 2: So the last time you and I chatted on the 119 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 2: podcast about the former president, he was being indicted, and 120 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:48,200 Speaker 2: that was basically a summons for him to come to 121 00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:51,440 Speaker 2: the Manhattan District Courthouse to present himself to be charged 122 00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 2: in person. And that's the step that happened yesterday. Trump 123 00:06:55,240 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 2: went to New York from his home in Florida to 124 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,160 Speaker 2: formally face the charges. If someone accused of a crime 125 00:07:01,240 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 2: is formally charged, it's at this point in the States 126 00:07:04,279 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 2: that fingerprints are taken, they're officially told they're under arrest, 127 00:07:07,760 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 2: and typical mugshot. There is a mug shot. Now. It's 128 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:14,160 Speaker 2: interesting about the mugshot because the former president didn't have 129 00:07:14,240 --> 00:07:17,760 Speaker 2: a mug shot yesterday, and whilst we didn't get a 130 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 2: direct reason from his lawyers as to why that was, 131 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:23,280 Speaker 2: you'd presume it's because the purpose of a mugshot is 132 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:26,800 Speaker 2: to recognize the alleged criminal, and I think everybody is 133 00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:30,680 Speaker 2: very familiar with Donald Trump's face. But rest assured that 134 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 2: didn't stop the Trump campaign from putting an artificial mugshot 135 00:07:34,320 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 2: on some T shirts and selling them yesterday. So there 136 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 2: are mugshots of Trump in circulation, but they're not real anyway. 137 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 2: So after appearing in court, he was released on bail. 138 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 2: He went straight to the airport and flew back to Florida, 139 00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 2: where he made quite an entrance at his home in 140 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 2: Mari Lago. Thank you very much, every lady, we have 141 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,520 Speaker 2: to save Why can't you God bless you all. 142 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: God bless you all. 143 00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 2: And I never thought anything like this. 144 00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 4: Could happen in America, never thought it could happen. 145 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 2: He spoke to the crowd for quite a while, but 146 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,760 Speaker 2: at the heart of his speech was this claim that 147 00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:14,880 Speaker 2: the charges against him were politically motivated. The only crime 148 00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 2: that I have committed is to fearlessly defend our nation 149 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 2: from those who seek to destroy it. 150 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,160 Speaker 3: So, if we're to recap the story so far, we 151 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 3: had Trump post on truth social that he was going 152 00:08:29,040 --> 00:08:32,680 Speaker 3: to be arrested, Then we had the indictment that we 153 00:08:32,720 --> 00:08:35,360 Speaker 3: found out for the News, Then we had the charges 154 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:39,440 Speaker 3: brought yesterday. What is the next chapter of the Trump story. 155 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 2: Well, we have to wait a bit for this next 156 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 2: chapter because the next in person court date is set 157 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:47,079 Speaker 2: for the fourth of December this year. The whole process 158 00:08:47,080 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 2: itself could last months, and Trump's legal team is going 159 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:54,160 Speaker 2: to fight to have the case dropped. So falsifying business 160 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 2: records is typically considered a misdemeanor, so less serious than 161 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,439 Speaker 2: a felony, and normally it's pineable by no more than 162 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 2: one year in prison under New York state law. But 163 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 2: because Trump has been also accused of committing crimes to 164 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:11,560 Speaker 2: cover up other crimes. His charges have been elevated to 165 00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 2: that felony stage, each carrying a minimum sentence of four 166 00:09:15,280 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 2: years in prison. Now, the prosecutor in this case, who 167 00:09:18,679 --> 00:09:21,840 Speaker 2: is the Manhattan District attorney you heard from before, Alvin Bragg, 168 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 2: said they planned to request a trial date in January 169 00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:28,200 Speaker 2: twenty twenty four. Trump's legal team is asking for Spring 170 00:09:28,280 --> 00:09:31,199 Speaker 2: of twenty twenty four, so closer to April. Sam. 171 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,120 Speaker 3: That timing that you mentioned before, the possibility of the 172 00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 3: next in person court hearing being in December, coincides with 173 00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:41,880 Speaker 3: another big date in the calendar, that's the Republican primaries. 174 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 3: That's of course connected to the upcoming presidential election, which 175 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,520 Speaker 3: Donald Trump has put himself forward for. How does this 176 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 3: affect the election. 177 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,079 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're hurtling towards that US presidential election in November 178 00:09:55,120 --> 00:09:57,720 Speaker 2: of twenty twenty four. There is actually no guarantee that 179 00:09:57,760 --> 00:09:59,880 Speaker 2: we'll have the court date for Trump in this CA 180 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 2: by then. But I guess in terms of asking whether 181 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,120 Speaker 2: this affects his run for president, you need to consider 182 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:10,160 Speaker 2: his place in the Republican Party and how this changes 183 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:14,480 Speaker 2: the views of Republicans. There's two issues for me. One 184 00:10:14,520 --> 00:10:17,640 Speaker 2: is whether key players in the Republican Party agree with 185 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:20,440 Speaker 2: the charges brought against Trump, But the other is whether 186 00:10:20,440 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 2: they support him running as president altogether. Now, according to 187 00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:29,319 Speaker 2: Axios publication in the US, nearly every Republican in office 188 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:33,080 Speaker 2: has defended Trump through this investigation and indictment. They've called 189 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 2: it politically motivated, as Trump did in his speech yesterday, 190 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:39,920 Speaker 2: But that doesn't mean that all the Republicans support his nomination. 191 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:43,520 Speaker 3: When we were texting yesterday morning after the charges had 192 00:10:43,559 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 3: been laid, you were telling me about watching Mitt Romney 193 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:47,200 Speaker 3: on Fox News. 194 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,640 Speaker 2: What was he saying, Well, he's a really good example 195 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 2: of this dilemma for Republicans. He said that the New 196 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:56,439 Speaker 2: York prosecutor stretched the charges to reach a felony stage 197 00:10:56,679 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 2: and that had a political agenda behind it. The same 198 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:04,120 Speaker 2: time that Trump's character and conduct overall made him unfit 199 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:04,640 Speaker 2: for office. 200 00:11:04,800 --> 00:11:06,880 Speaker 3: Yes, so that's important. Mitt Romney is no fan of 201 00:11:07,360 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 3: Donald Trump. 202 00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 2: A sworn enemy in the Republican Party of Donald Trump 203 00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 2: who doesn't want to see him run for president, but 204 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 2: also thinks the charges might have political motivation. We also 205 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 2: heard from Trump's former National secretary advisor, John Bolton, another 206 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,920 Speaker 2: sworn Trump enemy, who criticized the charges also against Trump. Well, 207 00:11:23,920 --> 00:11:26,839 Speaker 2: speaking of someone who very strongly does not want Donald 208 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:31,120 Speaker 2: Trump to get the Republican presidential nomination, I'm extraordinarily distressed 209 00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 2: by this document. So there are a few critical voices 210 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,920 Speaker 2: within the Republican Party. But then if you zoom out. 211 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 2: According to a poll from Yahoo News and ugov, which 212 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 2: is the first poll held after Trump's indictment, Trump support 213 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 2: is actually on the rise amongst Republican voters. Fifty four 214 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:51,559 Speaker 2: percent of Republicans and Republican leaning voters would now prefer 215 00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 2: Trump to be the Republican presidential nominee. The other consideration here, Zara, 216 00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 2: is how much Trump will be able to use these 217 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 2: charges with his key supporter base to generate more support 218 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 2: but importantly more cash. 219 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 3: Well, I think that when we were watching the press 220 00:12:07,520 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 3: conference yesterday, there was an image I saw on Twitter 221 00:12:11,040 --> 00:12:14,440 Speaker 3: of every single major Australian news outlet carrying that presser, 222 00:12:14,559 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 3: So every single news channel we were all watching the 223 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:19,440 Speaker 3: same thing. I can't imagine what it's like in the US. 224 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:21,880 Speaker 3: All eyes are on him, hears all the attention in 225 00:12:21,920 --> 00:12:22,240 Speaker 3: the world. 226 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 2: It's in some ways the campaign launched that he really 227 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:28,360 Speaker 2: wanted and it's paying unique way to launch a campaign. 228 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:31,520 Speaker 2: It's a high risk strategy, but it is paying off. 229 00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,079 Speaker 2: Senior advisor the Trump Jason Miller, tweeted yesterday that the 230 00:12:35,120 --> 00:12:39,079 Speaker 2: Trump campaign has raised ten million dollars since his indictment, 231 00:12:39,600 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 2: and I wouldn't be surprised if we look at that 232 00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,120 Speaker 2: figure in another twenty four hours that there's not another 233 00:12:44,200 --> 00:12:48,120 Speaker 2: wave of passionate Republicans throwing support behind what they see 234 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 2: as Trump's fight for justice. 235 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,360 Speaker 3: Thanks for joining us on the dhlias today.
