for someone who built his political career, of course, on the notion he is a billionaire, maybe not so much. whether or not that is literally true. none of this is final until the judge signed off on all of it, but as we saw, it has not stopped yet, the former president from making it politically. he went on social media with one of his all-time favorite charges, that phrase, say it with me now, witchhunt, and claiming there are legal systems being used as a political weapon. but here s the thing. to damages that are vastly bigger than anyone expected allow him to frame all of this as an attack against him? after all, more than half of voters in our new hampshire exit poll said donald trump would be fit for presidency, even if he is convicted of a crime. joining me now are gwendolyn, a former da in dekalb county georgia, and rena shaw. i m so glad both of you are here, but first of all i have got to get your reaction to this, when thinking about that this is an $83 million ve
