thank you john and sandra, good afternoon, and for martha maccallum, this is the story . we are live out of the trump trial in downtown manhattan where the jury is still awaiting right now behind closed doors, the former president charged with falsifying business records to cover up a payment to born stars stormy daniels before the 2016 election he s facing up to five years in prison on each count and he says you did nothing illegal. mr. trump: mother teresa could not meet those charges, this whole thing is rigged. where the judges so conflicted he cannot breathe, he has to do his job. it s a disgrace and i mean that. mother teresa cannot be those charges but we will see. the five cohosted judges with me here at the courthouse, what has struck you, in the final argument, the jury instructions now we wait. judge jeanine: so much that strikes me, on the one hand up and saying continuously that michael cohen it is the linchpin of this case, the judge gave an instruction
constitution literal translation of the ability for the senate to remove on a 2/3 vote. it would have to give him a trial, an ethics committee investigation which could take months if not a year. he will only serve for three years and have to run again. the caution here is even if jones were elected, he can t serve as a blue democrat in a ruby red state. that would be political suicide. in the event jones were to win my advice to the president invite him to the white house and welcome him to washington and try and work with him as probably a wedge or bridge with democrats. there is a lot of strategies the play out. i think the ultimate strategy is going to be where the actual voters who will enter the voting boot. eric: that s fascinating. even if doug jones is elected he could carry out the president s platform somewhat. absolutely. i do think it would be advantageous for him politically because of the political dynamics in alabama.
republican party right now. i ve always said there s no such thing as a tea party. it doesn t exist. when you go to the voting boot, it says dr. there s no tp. the tea party doesn t exist. it s the republican party. they have to own their own people. and to own it is to do something about it. in fact, if you look at what senator jeff sessions argued, victoria, that obama care is destroying our health care system and took issue with the notion that our health care system isn t the greatest in the world. take a listen to this. and for people to say our health care isn t the best in the word, why do people come here from all over the world? that is one of the most horrible things i ve ever heard around here. so we ve got people that die
justice department which blocked the law back in march. doug mckelway is with us. what do we expect is going to happen? reporter: we are expecting 25 hours are five days of arguments over the texas voter id law before a three-judge federal panel in washington. three of the judges were appointed by democratic president. at stake is the law that provides people to provide an id at the voting boot. they say twice as many hispanics as caucasians lack the necessary photo id such as driver s licenses or passports. supporters of the texas law point out that dead people have cast ballots for president obama and that photo id s are a common and necessary tool to function in every day life. you have to have it. if you want to make an appointment with the attorney general you have to have the photo id or you re not getting
the voters. democratic party nationally is trying to make it easier for people to vote and two or three i.d. s in the voting boot. trying to i can ma it easy to vote. at the same time as people get to the ballot and cast their vote and results, the president doesn t like, he tries to disenfranchise the voters, and we re going to get a big vote in arkansas and tell the people of arkansas right now. mike: we ve run out of time, john. it s interesting to hear a democrat talking about a democratic president disenfranchising the voters so i m having to pinch myself and having to say, am i really hearing this? john, thank you for being here and good luck to you in the election. [applause] thank you, governor. he started his writing career singing and writing songs for people like tim mcgraw, kenny chesney and blake shelton, now recording his own songs and he s one of the hottest country stars on the scene. coming up, lee bryce.
