all the cities and i was with people who did not support trump. i was people who gave money against trump and republicans. and unspoken to me. they said i m giving to trump this is unbelievable. what s happening? it s pushing has been all the other veronica ask you though, about just the underlying allegations of this trial. lucky? allegedly paid off a porn star to keep an extramarital affair. quiet. does that conduct concern you look, i think people knew about this before the last election. i don t think this is something they didn t know that he painted are off. okay. but from this standpoint, if you go with this premise that this is something illegal what was in the law that this broke then you would go back and should hillary clinton be tried because she paid a law firm to create a fictitious russia issue. and i m not talking to i know you re not talking about that, but but the american public is going to look at all this is, this isn t just a cnn question. you re askin

them have just decide to say that it s donald trump. i m with them. yeah. you mentioned those two senators, brown and tested. we do statements that they gave allowed to m the aftermath of this this verdict we know saying they respect the judicial process that we re certainly not embracing it. it does show you the line that they are walking these vulnerable members. that ll grads in these red states. they want to make it about a cantilevers candidate issue. they don t want to talk about trump, even if they may turn off trump s verdict may turn off some swing voters. yeah, they they they want to talk about how they are a perfect match for their state and how they are, they re going to run. they re going to run their race their hi time. they ve gotten their buzz cut, whatever his here, that it s called. but no, they are they are focused on on their race and not on trump because talking about trump might motivate their base, but guess what, they re basing their states is too small
