This case, delay matters that are favorable for donald trump? >> yes. so jonathan, thats a very good point. scheduling orders are entered in all cases in federal court. civil or criminal. in this instance, she can say i cant try this case until ex-date. but again, i think if you see something like that, that you are going to see her fitting into the narrative that shes actually doing something to put a her thumb on the scales of justice. in favor of donald trump. but there are, lets be frank, yo...

Why it was necessary. this document says that. the timeline here is crazy. but also very important and extremely digestible. it starts jack smith on page two, in this indictment, by saying donald trump -- from the moment -- while he was in office as the president, kept boxes. regularly kept boxes of information. then the narrative goes on to talk about that when he was preparing to leave office, in the end of his term, those boxes, he directed, with knowledge, he directed. he himself, donald tru...

Get done. federal judges dont play. donald trump may try to delay, as jonathan was talking about. thats definitely a donald trump playbook run. but at the end of the day, the doj could say, i believe in my case. special counsel jack smith has presented an impeccably detailed indictment. we know he probably has more evidence up his sleeve that we havent even seen yet. so why bother. why not make a run for it? if you look at a national page in the indictment, it says, ali, 21 days is what they say...

Good to see you. i have a question about what folks should expect on tuesday. i was told by some former federal prosecutors that will look, well be seeing miami, its going to look very similar to what we saw and heard frankly in the new york case. of manhattan district attorney, alvin bragg. in the arraignment of donald trump, in the alvin -- the manhattan district attorney case, that was where we -- if you read the document, it talks of the transcript. it talks about how there were negotiations...

He, according to the indictment, not only obstructed it, orchestrated the obstruction for his codefendant. by having them conceal the documents. not cooperating, telling his lawyer not to cooperate. in doing so, the process in how he retained these documents is what discharge is about. we shouldve cited. that people are saying, he had these boxes, hes allowed to have these boxes. its not about the fact that he got the boxes. its that he held on to these boxes, even when they told him turn the da...

Indicted, i dont see the back. >> the second time, i would expect -- him talk about republicans, particularly, republicans in congress. i would expect a sophisticated spots. when tunnel trump got indicted in manhattan, they were carrying on about how it was his personal business, whatever the case is. now, response -- its very orchestrated because everyone has -- suddenly, everyones using the same, word recognize a solution. weaponization of donald trump, two standards of, whatever for everythin...

Are. theres a listing of information. it says here that theyre expecting the court case to last -- it was a 21 days for the parties to try. that, of course, doesnt take into account when it starts, all of the things that have to happen. all the potential delays. theyre basically saying it is three weeks, roughly, three business weeks worth of actual trial. thats no indication of when it starts or when it ends. >> yeah. im glad that you are managing these expectations, ali. people get excited, ri...

Thought about a case being brought in florida, let alone south florida? please, its insulting to the intelligence of americans to suggest that. we know that there is always drama in trumps legal. we know its always sharp elbows, who has the sharpest elbows to be able to get to the front of the line. boris epshteyn is, quote, it has counsel for donald trump. he is the one who is running interference, gatekeeping access. tim parlatore, publicly restarting a few weeks ago. edward cork, recusing him...

Other thing that was impressive about the indictment was the mobilization of all of the statements that donald trump had been making as far back is 2016 about the fundamental importance of maintaining the security confidentiality of classified documents. even set in some of the statements that no one is above the law. that these documents must be given very high protection. i would say its an impressive set of pages. certainly, i dont think any colleagues after reading their should be going out ...

Saying im sorry, i didnt realize this is going to be in miami. the todd blanche was brought in for the manhattan d. a.s criminal case, hes gonna be up next. look, that chart, youre running out of space to be able to talk about different lawyers that are there. we can do the rachel maddow wall that we had before when we were dealing with all of the stuff that was going on. in this instance, let me be very clear so that our berries understand, you know, trump could tee up as many lawyers as he wan...
