that was my spouse. that is a lot to ask of the public frankly. this is something where adults need to start acting like adults. they need to start acting like adults and stop acting like neighborhood disputes or justification for outrageous behavior and don t put the public in the position of, we have to decide. is justice alito with his wife on this? or is this some sort of breach in the marriage? it is a terrible position to put the public in. it never should have come to that. new york times columnist david french, thank you very much. next, cnbc on the reported alliance between elon musk and donald trump. you are watching morning joe weekend. we will be right back!
constitution center. good morning to you all. let me begin with you, joyce. and your reaction on 34 felony counts against the president. it is something. i have talked to a lot of juries after they have reached a verdict. i live in one of those jurisdictions where the judge gives you permission to do that several days after a verdict is returned. what i have heard over 25 years is jurors that wanted to express to us how much they honor their oath and they had tried so hard to set aside any bias or preconception and they deliberated based only on the evidence and reached their verdict based on the evidence. whatever that verdict was. and that is what this jury did here. they listened to the evidence. they reached a verdict based on the evidence. we saw signs of them working through it. donald trump is in the process of trying to spend the verdict down. where americans need to reject
