disappointment. i think everyone was hoping we would see more about the direction that they intend to take this prosecution. what is the legal theory? that ties that very solid misdemeanor case 34 counts of misdemeanors to the intent to conceal another crime, which is what makes it a felony. it s simply isn t there now. it s possible that the d a has an elaborate and solid theory that s backed up by a lot of evidence, and he has just decided to conceal that at this point. that would be a i think it s a strange decision on his part, but nevertheless i m giving him the benefit of the doubt at the end of the day if all of our legal friends read this indictment and don t see a way to have felony, it s hard to imagine convincing a jury that that they should get there and we and we heard the former national security adviser to donald trump. john bolton, not a fan of donald trump opposite expressing disappointment. ah and saying he thinks that donald
we ll be able to follow it as well. and even if they can, even if they get a conviction, it s still has to survive appeals, which can be difficult for cases built a novel legal theories. obviously, members of the grand jury did follow the case, although it s a much different bar that has to pass in order to get the grand jury as opposed to an actual impaneled jury pool. what is the next timeline in this case because the next court date is not until december. i think exactly. it will be another eight months before they ll be back in court before this judge, but we can expect motions from the defense team. the three defense attorneys, three of them who are with the former president in court. today, they made a beeline for reporters held a mini press conference out here, which is a little surprising, but they clearly wanted to talk about this indictment. they made it clear that they re going to file motions to dismiss and launched other challenges against this indictment. now that we ve s
statutes that would make this a felony weren t even laid out clearly and so that people can really see what laws they re alleging that he broke. i think that s really puzzling to me because the public interest in this case is so high as a prosecutor, i think the legal underpinnings of all of this really does need to be rock solid. you know, i m i m not a lawyer. i can t say whether this is going to be a good case or bad case. will they win or will they lose? it s clearly not a slam dunk case at and it seems very clear that they have a lot of legal proving to do in the courtroom, and the trump team has a lot to challenge them on, you know, as we ve been able to digest this and really sit with the actual indictment. i ve been thinking a lot about the fact that we have to potentially differentiate between the letter of the law and the spirit of the law, the letter or the actual case. might be hard to prove. but what it s laying out, particularly in this statement,
which we live. however right now the usa is a mess. our economy is crashing. inflation is out of control. russia has joined with china can you believe that? saudi arabia has joined with iran. china russia, iran and north korea have formed together. as a menacing and destructive coalition would have never happened. if i were your president would never have happened. norwood russia attacking ukraine have happened . all of those lives will be saved. all of those beautiful cities would be standing. our currency is crashing and will soon no longer president speaking tonight at mar-a-lago back here in new york with the panel, um alyssa, i mean, this is a reprise of we were waiting for him to talk about what happened today finally talked about it a little bit of the end, there were cutting out of it, but a reprise of pretty much
to look like what this. this race is going to look like, if you think there has been some change if you think that that this is a forward looking campaign, as of now, it certainly doesn t seem to think you ll see a lot of these candidates who get in this race that 1% 2% now i don t think they plan on going anywhere for a while. i think they think that at some point in the future, whether it s indictment to or indictment, three americans will get tired of hearing that watching the same old show will change the channel. they re gonna want different candidates . just remember the occasion for this grand celebration is the man got indicted. he is charged in a criminal case state of new york against donald trump. he sat at the defendants. table today. that s what has kicked off this raucous, bizarre celebration. i just have to call this up the attacks on the judge on alvin bragg on family members are utterly reprehensible. we can disagree. we have disagreed , have substantive conversations
