but is this the moment where republicans say, you know what? we do have other alternatives. chris christie today, on cnn. this conduct is particularly awful for someone who has been president and who aspires to be president again. it is a very, very evidence filled indictment. that s as far out as anybody who was ever run for presidency in 2020 has gone on the republican side of the aisle. i just wonder, joy, how do you think the ron desantis of the world play this? if you had an opponent who is facing several 37 counts you will probably talk about on the campaign trail, and yet, open question about similar ron desantis? asa hutchins will give him credit, that also kind of several like chris christie. but chris christie, and a citizens have been former prosecutor. mitch mcconnell s here? mcconnell is quiet. the problem is, all the incentive structures in the republican party still favor donald trump, and so we should mention chris christie did prosecute jared kushner s dad. so
filled indictment. that s as far out as anybody who was ever run for presidency in 2020 has gone on the republican side of the aisle. i just wonder, joy, how do you think the ron desantis of the world play this? if you had an opponent who is facing several 37 counts you will probably talk about on the campaign trail, and yet, open question about similar ron desantis? asa hutchins will give him credit, that also kind of several like chris christie. but chris christie, and a citizens have been former prosecutor. mitch mcconnell s here? mcconnell is quiet. the problem is, all the incentive structures in the republican party still favor donald trump, and so we should mention chris christie did prosecute jared kushner s dad. so you know, he s got some feelings and emotions that are involved here. but the problem for desantis is not only that he does not know how to pronounce his last name, but his incentive structures are crazy. they are just off the charts.
going to handle this question. the mike pence answer, which is probably going to be the ron desantis answer, which is probably going to try to avoid it as long as possible because they seem afraid to take on directly a candidate that they want to beat. bizarrely that s the only way you beat. the other group of candidates which i would include chris christie and asa hutchinson in this group, i think every time bad news is going to show up in this case about donald trump and every time he accumulates baggage they will jump on it in a forceful way. the answer is asa hutchins and chris christie give on this will be unforgiving of donald trump than what we hear from mike pence and ron desantis and even nikki haley. on the democratic side if there is another indictment do they let chris chrissy and asa hutchinson do the work for them or do they say anything or keep quiet? i think they let all of us do the work for them.
