Case. the timing would be quite protracted at best. >> i think this is a very effective indictment. dont get me wrong. 161 specific acts. shes got a lot of proof as to the bulk of those. my only criticism -- i disagree with chris christie but in a principled way. i think it was important to georgia and certainly important to her that to have trump as a defendant. it would be a little hard to explain to the jury why you have all these acolytes, but not the kingpin in a rico case. i think she did ...

Willis is expected to seek more than a dozen indictments on her investigation into donald trump and his allies attempts to overturn the 2020 election in georgia. trump expects he will be one of those indictments, we are told, as do a number of his close acolytes. this investigation started in early 21 when trump made this call to georgia secretary of state brad raffensperger pressuring him to, quote unquote, find enough votes to flip the state from biden who had legitimately won to trump who had...

Person trump leaned on to hear a legal advice from. and labeling meadows as a, quote, ringleader, adding his response from, meadows calling it useless, uninformed by facts, speculation. so, katie, where is mark meadows in this latest indictment? is he a co-operator? do we know? >> ive always said he is cooperating with the government. and part of this hes been laying so low, like completely low profile, he has not been out there. hes been parroting trump talking points that the trump acolytes an...

This, and he proceeded as fast as he could. i do think that merrick garland did not proceed as fast as he might have. i think what many of us fear, namely that this will drag on, that even if there is a verdict or conviction, for example, there could be an appeal that would last into the ex presidency, and if the next presidency is held either by donald trump or by one of his acolytes or by virtually any republican, there is the horrible prospect that this will all be wiped away, and that it wil...

Remain the same. >> one of the things that people say is that putin has always had, as you said, this ultra-russian nationalist narrative and then covid happens. he stops meeting with anybody, foreigners. he gets more and more isolated. he restricts himself to a circle of real kind of acolytes and courtiers. you had to quarantine for two weeks before you could even see him, and maybe that also explains that he really got into a hothouse of just these highly nationalist russians. >> sure. absolut...

Its the question so many have asked over these last eight years. what is this cultish like allure that trump has? clearly, whether its in proximity to power or whether they just become full-on acolytes, the problem with these supporters is that right now, all of them, whether they accepted or not, are in tremendous legal jeopardy. the only thing that trump can try to promise them is if he can somehow get elected in 18 months, the prospect of some sort of a presidential pardon will all go away. d...
