the civil war combined. it is one of if not the most significant case in the united states history. 9/11, 2001. usama bin laden and other terrorists hated our democracy, tried to destroy it. donald trump, just like those other threats to american democracy, tried to destroy our system. this is the greatest political crime since succession. this has a chance of going to trial before the election and that s exactly what jack smith did. he knows what he s doing and he did it here. this case can be tried before the election. i don t see any reason why it shouldn t. the election will be simply about where will trump serve his next term? in the white house or in the big house? greg: they want to send trump to the big house before you voters even get the chance to send him back to the white house. legal experts and republicans argue this indictment is an attack on the first amendment. political speech now has been criminalized. the first amendment is under assault. i
Conduct but the problem, i think, jack smith has is that congress has not enacted statutes that directly criminalize the behavior that smith is talking about. when i take a red pen through material that s protected by the first amendment, it reduces much of this to a haiku. greg: republicans are blasting how trump s new legal troubles are once again perfect timing for the bidens. notice the difference on how the media covers joe s growing scandals. you can t equate these two things. i mean, you re talking about an encyclopedia of outrages and scandals against constitutional government vs. what s, you know at best a comma or footnote in the annals of american political history because you re talking about the son of a president. they talked basically every day, sometimes joe biden would say hello to the people in the room if he popped in or on the phone or whatever. a lot of these relationships operate in the gray areas

greg: i love that barbecue. dana: indeed. look, one of the things she said is that she has this quote talking about bussing migrants is cinema and grand gestures and political games. one, a lot of politicians do that. you host events so you can do that. on bussing migrants, she was supposed to be in charge of immigration! jesse: she s greyhound. dana: very good one. i think this. that she s going to be elevated by both sides. ok? because the republicans want people to know that if you elect joe biden and he s 80 and not in good health, the likelihood of her becoming president during the next four years is higher than you would want if you re a republican. but the democrats also need to elevate her because she s dragging down joe biden s numbers. and they need her and especially because they re concerned about it not turning out. they need her to have a more
