cases, the voters are having difficulty kind of, you know, teasing them out, understanding the difference. because this one right now, basically because it contains the word porn star in the description, sometimes voters take it less seriously than they do some of the ones that we aren't sure will actually come to trial before the election. what we wanted to do with the ad is really underscore that donald trump's level of legal liability, this guy couldn't get a job at the local mall, right? the idea that -- you know, a fast food restaurant wouldn't hire him with his record. the idea that we would make him president of the united states again, like, we get numb to it, right? we get sort of numb to who donald trump is. because it's always so much, it's so many charges, it's so many, you know, felonies, it's easy to just let it wash over you, but we really wanted to

>> no, we don't. >> i don't think so. >> okay. >> yeah. >> donald trump has been charged with 88 felonies and found liable for sexual assault. if trump is too big of a liability to get a job at your local mall, he is too big of a liability to be president of the united states. >> wow. let's bring in the executive director of the republican accountability project, sarah longwell. great to have you on the show this morning. i do think that it's unknown how things might change for trump as these trials drag on, especially the one he is in now. that ad kind of crystallizes some of the challenges he faces straight ahead. what are you seeing in terms of the liability for president trump with the cases that are still in the future? >> look, as you know, i do focus groups with swing voters and voters across the political spectrum every week. one of the things we could see is that because donald trump has so many charges against him, there are so many different

policies, the lack of gun policies and the overturning of roe, in real time. then it will ultimately turn back against them. a new ad from the group republican voters against trump is focusing on how the former president's legal issues may be a liability for the presidency. let's take a listen. >> i was wondering if you guys are hiring. i was applying for a job. i was thinking about applying for a job here. i'm currently faing 88 felonies. for detention of classified information. falsifying business records. i was wondering if that was going to be a problem. >> we have diamonds and jewelry, yes. >> we'll do a background check. >> probably not? >> yeah. >> do you hire people that sexually assault other people or -- >> no. >> we do a fullback ground. wouldn't go through.

there is the legal part. this is a textbook case of falsifying business records. there was no legal fees. they can fake retainer agreement and fake invoices. donald trump pays the checks to michael cohen so they do not find out donald trump had an affair, allegedly. we learn about that right before the election when the accessed hollywood tape had blown out. there is something i think is worse for trump that is a falling asleep in the courtroom. you don't have to understand law or any kind of nuance. the guy is 77 and he is falling asleep three times in one week. what happens? jon stewart has made fun of it. jimmy kimmel has made fun of it. stephen colbert is making fun of it. he has been the punchline of that the average person might not get the legal issues. they might not get the politics but they know a 77-year-old man does not have the stamina to stay awake when he is charged with 34 felonies. how can he be president? that is the most damaging thing. it is this issue.

his statements outside of the courtroom, the idea this was all legal fees this will all be used against him. him going on the stand, in his own mind, probably thinks it will help him. he will give a speech like his supporters. in real life, it will hurt him so badly. please, trump -- >> does he not know the comments he makes outside of the courtroom can be recorded and played back to them is that the courtroom? >> reporter: he is not saying anything for the legal benefit. we all know how many times we said anyone else would be in jail pretty he has her that for years as well. he thinks he will never be held accountable for this whole thing is to play to his base and public and win the election. even if he is convicted of the felonies, probably does not get jail time for today, he knows his base is not going anywhere. they will cheer him more. that is the sad reality where we are as a nation. he should be convicted of felonies. >> same question to you bridget do you not think he realizes being put on the stand could actually be used in the

and instead, installing his own people. that u.s. attorney's office in dc then immediately moved to drop the charges and undue the guilty plea from trump national security adviser mike flynn. they moved the recommended sentence from roger stone who had been convicted of multiple felonies. they also folded to the pressure to bring charges against obama's white house counsel. that case was so palpablely weak, the jury voted to acquit in less than five hours. that very rarely happens to federal prosecutors but it happened there because there was no case. because trump insisted that the prosecution be brought forward. one u.s. attorney's office looked into it and said are you kidding? there's nothing here. the other one went ahead and did it. because that's what trump demanded. even though there was no case. jeffrey berman saw what had happened in the dc u.s.

we go through this clearly a textbook case of falsifying business records. there was no legal fees. they can fake the retainer agreement effective in faking this. former president donald trump will pay a check to michael cohen. so in 2016, they did not allegedly have an affair with stormy daniels. we learn about that before the election. when the access hollywood tape. there was something else. that is also risky. that is the falling asleep in the courtroom. you don't have to understand the law. or any type of nuance. the guy is 77 is falling asleep. three times in one week. what has happened? jon stewart has made fun of it. jimmy kimmel, stephen colbert and he has been a punchline. that translates to politics. the average person might not get it. but they know a 77-year-old man does not have to stamina to stay awake. and with 34 felonies. beep president? to me, that is the most damaging. it is this issue. everybody can get it. he cannot stay awake. he was not the same person that he is four years ago. >> renati marriot, this is unique. stressful for the jurors who have been tasked with it.

he could give a speech like his supporters. but it will hurt him so badly. so please, donald trump. >> does he not know that the commentary makes outside of the courtroom can actually be recorded. played back and played to him. >> is not saying anything for legal benefit. we all know. how many people have been in jail. he thinks he will never be held accountable. this is not your thing is to play to his base. play to the public to win the election. that is all he cares about. even if he is convicted. to him, he knows his base is not going anywhere. they will cheer him on, even more. that is the sad state of the nation. but he should be convicted of felonies. >> the same question to you. do you think he realizes being put on the stand could actually be used in the prosecutors favor ? if he were to testify.
