. that is something that we saw play out over and over in the white house as he was under multiple investigations. he did that for decades when he was a private businessman at a certain point, the pr strategy i think can be undermining to the legal strategy, and i think you re right. we don t know what the charges are. his team can t form a legal strategy yet because they don t know what the charges are. they are in the dark as much as we are, and as i understand it, they re getting minimal information from the da s office, even just in the lead up to the arrangement, but i do think that that is a risk for them. yeah big question. of course of the legal strategy of attacking the judge that you re going to appear before on tuesday. what does that look like? what does that strategy? there have been a lot of questions about this indictment. and as we are still waiting to see what they look like. there are some basic ones that we do know which is. obviously trump is running for office. he
d a s office, those are the doors that you walk through. if they say a if what they say. is that trying to keep this as normal process as they would for any other defendant, then you re supposed to walk through those doors if he doesn t walk through those doors then it gives the impression certainly that he s getting special treatment. of course, the secret service is concerned about his safety and getting him in. but you know for the district attorney s office. they want to make sure that this process goes as it would for any other defendant, so normally you would expect him to walk through these doors, and i know there s a lot of talk of other ways in there is one other way in there. anderson that s around the corner that he could possibly go in, but we would be able to see him there as well. and there may be one other way where he d have to go through. but that that s through the jail that s attached. to the courthouse, so we ll see what happens here on tuesday. anderson certainly a
russian republicans that we have seen racing to defend him, some of them who even thought he was unfit for office and voted to impeach him are now criticizing the decision to indict him. that includes our next guest, former michigan congressman peter meyer, who lost his primary after primary after he voted to impeach trump. congressman thank you for being here tonight. you know you have been critical of this. this indictment. what do you make of it? caitlin i care about precedent, right? and i think that is the hard thing for so many to do because donald trump the man is really hard to separate from anything. people have an opinion on him. nobody is indifferent to him. folks love them. they hate him. but the important point to remember about this issue is it s not about donald trump. it is about the idea of whether or not we should have a higher threshold for folks who are members of or who are former presidents. should we be treating them? we should certainly shouldn t be treating the
thinks his supporters will react to an indictment of his you know what else they say about my people? the polls? they say, i have the most loyal people. did you ever see that? where i could stand in the middle of fifth avenue and shoot somebody and i wouldn t lose any voters. okay? it s like incredible. one of the things that could also help trump politically, is the russian republicans that we have seen racing to defend him, some of them who even thought he was unfit for office and voted to impeach him are now criticizing the decision to indict him. that includes our next guest, former michigan congressman peter meyer , who lost his primary after primary after he voted to impeach trump. congressman thank you for being here tonight. you know you have been critical of this. this indictment. what do you make of it? caitlyn i care about precedent, right? and i think that is the hard thing for so many to do because donald trump the man is really hard to separate from anything. people have
hearing from people on the ground over there? yeah it really is killing when you think about it for the manhattan d a s office who is used to dealing with high profile cases, celebrities who have walked through this door behind me to surrender. this is one hogan place really a story to offend famous place where many significant defendants celebrities have surrendered, and it is expected that potentially those are the doors that the former president could walk through. keep in mind. interestingly enough. his friends have walked through that door to surrender. steve bannon weisberg, who was the former cfo of trump work, they will work walk through that door after they surrendered, but then just security all around here really right now already heightened. let me just show you here, caitlin. barricades like this all across. and around the building here as already, police officials in court officials anticipating what tuesday could look like, but they have already all of these security mea
