so that leads me to believe they don't actually want to win, they want to sell books, maybe up their name i.d., raise money. but not actually -- not actually take on the guy that is currently beating them all. >> yeah, you're right. it's being that explicit about saying he could face prison time. we've seen desantis talk about it in interviews or pence talking about him putting himself over the constitution. but in those direct terms that you're talking about it's rare. now, one person that has gone after the former president pretty aggressively is former new jersey governor chris christie. i want to listen to a clip of him reacting to this latest indictment. then i'll come back to you. >> i think this was unnecessary, as did donald trump. now, remember, as to the other defendants, jack smith chose not to charge them. so i would have less of a problem with this if she decided okay, i'm not going to charge donald trump here because he's been charged for essentially this conduct by jack smith. but giuliani and meadows and

expects a fair resolution to the case, but republicans are blasting garland's selection of weiss, who oversaw what the gop calls a sweetheart plea deal that would have allowed the president's son to avoid prison time. that deal fell apart under scrutiny from a federal judge. >> mr. weiss has been compromised. who in their right mind believes that changing the title of what you call mr. weiss solves all the problems associated with mr. weiss? nobody. >> reporter: congressional republicans accuse garland of appointing weiss to try to stonewall their investigation into whether president biden was involved in what republicans say were biden family members' efforts to enrich themselves off his political career. >> this is an attempt to whitewash the biden family corruption. >> reporter: the white house has slammed the republican allegations as insane conspiracy theories. tonight, the president ignored reporters' questions but has repeatedly defended his son. >> i'm very proud of my son.
co-conspirators and not mr. trump or for everyone? i think the problem with not seeking for mr. trump, that means you're letting off the alleged leader of the conspiracy, which many people would find unfair. so the question is sort of not when, you know, not if the indictment is going to happen, but when. and who will she specifically seek the indictment against. >> and, again, she specified this month, so sometime in the next few weeks for that charging decision to be made. vaughn, trump is basically publicly been saying bring it on. he's been saying one more indictment will almost guarantee he's the nominee for the republican party and the presidential race. are there any concerns in trump world about the growing number of indictments? >> concerns about his political -- his legal fate, absolutely. and there is a recognition that a jury could convict him and that he could face prison time.

if we were prosecuted, richard, and we were sentenced, and we were having to do with a time, we should do it exactly where everybody else has to do it. >> danny? >> just about the sentence alone, if for example he is convicted of obstruction, just a quick look at the sentencing guidelines, you don't look at the macro sentence, it doesn't give you a forecast. but just the offense level, 15 to 21 months, that would be the recommended sentence. but once he starts the add-ons, the guidelines, for example, did he substantially obstruct the proceedings? i wonder. probably a judge would conclude that he's convicted that he did. and then, the numbers start going up dramatically. you get up to 70 months, 87 months. and then, keep in mind, if he is convicted on any of these other cases, he will not be a first time offender, which is a major factor when it comes to federal sentencing. federal sentencing is no joke, and in all likelihood, if he is convicted in either of these federal cases, he will be doing prison time. and i predict his attorneys
bank records, next week apparently involving hundred biden. we talk about banks in russia and ukraine and kazakhstan. the story continues. they will explain it away live for us in d.c. kevin thank you. >> meantime of former big city law enforcement officer got prison time for committing lesser tax crimes and hundred biden and now that matt is calling of double standard, we are live in the new york city newsroom with more on this actually good evening. >> hi, critics says will call a tale of two systems of justice, one for biden family and another for everyone else. they point to baltimore's former police commissioner who committed similar tax crimes 200 biden it but instead of a plea deal he ended up spending several months in prison. >> everyone should be held accountable across the board. particularly if even the value the money value you know some of the things that you just described with the gun in narcotics.
