I ll support the nominee. hogan then put out a tweet hours later walking that back saying, to be clear, my position on trump hasn t changed and i won t commit to supporting him. why do you think he walked it back so quickly? well, because his brand has always been anti-trump. he said he left the top of the ticketing blank or wrote in he voted for ronald reagan in 2024. sorry sorry, 2020. that would be disingenuous to not clarify what he meant there. but the broader concern is what s happening with the field and all of us know from covering 2016 how the party got trump, which was that you had a number of candidates splintering the more moderate, more mainstream vote. and when you see a lot of the candidates here who are coming out with the exception of desantis, that s kind of the brand that they are in, the mold that they are in. now, the question is really just how much does trump how much does this animate him to tarnish their brands? it seems like at this point he s pr ....
They are latching on to this as an opportunity to try and draw criticism, to the biden administration which was their mandate coming into this kong friends. but i fully expect the senator to move forward with this i, don t expect the white house to do anything but comply as they have been this entire time. right? the intention behind this, the proactive response that we have seen from the biden administration is what we need to continue to emphasize here. they are the ones who contracted the archives. they re the ones who handed things over to the doj. they are the ones who made the calls as soon as biden s personal attorney found the paperwork. that is what i think needs to be front and center as we discussed this. because this danny was talking about, likeness or similarity in investigations, there is not much. we have hundreds of documents on trump side, 20 maybe on biden s side. if biden administration contacting the authorities proactively, got trump ignoring court orders and subp ....
Lives matter signs. that s why he was arrested, why he wasn t actually free to be in d.c. on january 6th. but as you said, he s pushed forward as the frontman. he s probably going to do time and get convicted because the case against him is no different than the case against elmer stewart rhodes. these are people like him that are going to go to jail and for what? for donald trump. right, and they see donald trump as the main reason for being. they are out there fighting for gop grievances. part of what makes this trial so interesting is it s almost a mob-like trial. you have proud boys who have already pleaded guilty ready to testify against their own. and you have enrico tarrio s connections to people like roger stone and donald trump s inner circle. so if the prosecution wants to fry some big fish here, they could use that testimony to try to get more information about extremist connections to people like roger stone and trump s inner circle. it s going to be very interesting to s ....
That way giving the agonizing slowness of similar actions taken against donald trump. let s not forget, it took a year and a half following the negotiating, the begging, and the pleading by the national archives and the doj to try to get back all of the classified documents that trump took. when he left the white house, before garland appointed a special counsel to look into that, it started with the first request for documents by the national archives back in may of 2021. they didn t get anything until january of last year. when as we now know, classified documents were turned over but for some reason, it took until november for it to result in a special counsel. and as i said, that was after multiple attempts by the archives and doj to retrieve them. numerous subpoenas, and even a court ordered fbi search of mar-a-lago. it makes you wonder why they appear to be handling those so differently. one reason is they think they ....
Get his. the doj knows this movement on the right is a violent one that according to fbi director christopher wray makes up the bulk of domestic terrorist threats. in this case, you re not just dealing with a former president. you re dealing with a violent right wing movement disguised as a political party. joining me is jen psaki, former white house secretary, and my friend and colleague. good to have you in the building as part of this network. i have to ask you because this is what is bugging me about the situation. a lot of things are bugging me. i want you to explain how this works, but with trump, it literally has been a two-year soggy of begging and pleading and begging and pleading. with biden, there s, you know, a special counsel like in a hot minute. and it does make me wonder if at some level the department of justice fears trump s base and fears the violent potential repercussions january 6th style of just investigating him for crimes. that may be. ....
