trump effect and there s a numbness that the policy gets toward these scandals and toward the issues at the bottom of the scandal that i think is damaging to us as a nation. and i presume if trump is the nominee the mug shot is going to be living with us for some time because i can t imagine how the biden campaign and the democrats would not show that mug shot over and over and over again between now and november of 2024. the presidential photographer says he thinks that trump s mug shot will be the most published photograph in history. what do you think? i m sure that s correct. some of the publications coming from the trump campaign themselves, but it will be part of what the biden campaign wants to argue. this is why it s dangerous not to elect the democratic candidate, but to question again, is there outrage? is there any sense of shame
because they don t want to go to jail. right and a george state prison. that s not the place to be. want to ask you about the debate. during wednesday s debate, asa hutchinson, the arkansas governor was the only person to not raise his hand when asked if he would back trump as a nominee if he s convictsed in a court o law? christie? he did this and then he went down and many maybe we can give chris christie a little bit of the doubt and maybe he s in there, too. what did that say to you? it said to me about about party and this primary party is going nowhere fast. the metaphor that keeps popping into my head is or similar, i compare it to the malaysian airlines flight, and i know it s a terrible comparison, but kuala lumpur, it was supposed to go to beijing and the crazy pilot flew
within the republican party that causes them to agree to that or causes voters to move to biden who are not already in that camp? and i think at this point in american history that s an open question and we just don t know if this will have that impact. and knowing what you know about presidential politics, presidential history, the way we re seeing this republican race for the presidential nomination, shaping up right now, is there really anything standing in the path of trump getting that republican nomination next year? not much. i don t really see it and everyone raised their hand just about at that first debate about whether they d support him if he was convicted. those hands went right up and even former governor christie s hand kind of went up and that said a lot and look at the polls. he is far ahead and he s the dominant force in the republican party right now, so to knock him
bad things and whether trump did bad things and the issue is whether or not what meadows was doing was basically under color of his federal office and that s the language in the statute what does that mean? what it means is when you are arguably working on behalf of the united states of america and the answer is clearly, he was not. he s been saying that i was exercising my first amendment rights you are engaging in political speech and that s not what you you were for us. you re not supposed to be working for the trump campaign when you are chief of staff. so the answer is he went down there in his own private capacity, either that or he was violating that, and he went down there in his private capacity and engaging in political activity in support of the trump campaign and there s no way that that should be held under the color of federal law. it s got to be one or the other. it s got to be one or the other. fani willis, i kind of wonder
president, simply put, does not work. you have new data on who trump supporters believe the most, the former president or their family and friends? i feel like i want to shield myself from the graphic here. i don t want to see this, but please, shed some light on it here. what they tell you is true, this is among donald trump supporters. 71% say what donald trump tells them is true. just 63% among friends and family, 56% conservative media, religious leaders that used to be the big three at least among evangelicals coming in at 42%. so the fact is that donald trump is pulling in 57% of the republican vote and if 71% of the trump supporters say they feel what donald trumptels them is true, that i think more than anything else gives you an indication that if you want to succeed in the republican party these days you best not be critical of the former president. yeah. i mean, that s pretty indicative
