trump and his 18 co-defendants are facing a variety of charges, including racketeering and conspiracy. they all surrendered ahead of yesterday's noon deadline, and today one of the 19 co-defendants remains in the fulton county jail. last night a judge declined to set bond for harrison floyd, a leader of black voices for trump. during a hearing, he told the judge that he could not afford to hire an attorney. the judge informed him that he didn't meet the eligibility requirements for obtaining a public defender. cnn's jeremy herb is joining us now. jeremy, what comes next in the case? >> reporter: fred, now that we have the surrender from all 19 defendants, we get into this very complicated stage of the trial of how this is going to unfold, and one of the issues that you raised is when will the trial unfold? we've had the two defendants who want to have a trial that could be as soon as october, which is what the district attorney, fani
>> carley: jeremy, the fact you are getting forced to get vaccinated is too far for a lot of people. what are you going to do and how is rutgers on exemptions? >> rutgers has been strict on exemptions, some friends of mine had challenges trying to get exemptions in the first place and every year this happens, they insist they don't have religious reason for exemption. people do. this is not something people should be forced to do. this is about your body and whether or not you want something put in your body. i am vaccinated, i believe in the effectiveness of the vaccine and i'm comfortable being around

a formidable antagonist and edged out mitt romney. so, these, you know, these candidates who are not in first place really do see some benefit here if they can, you know, find an opening. and i think that's what worries the trump campaign and his advisers the most, is who rises to the top here in a way that could be threatening. >> yeah. i mean, jeremy, and this is an opportunity for this to be a post trump political world stage tonight. but how -- it just seems as though the former president is still controlling the oxygen, the talks and the discussions, even when he's not there. >> mm-hmm. and from our reporting in the "times," we have spelled out that fox plans to make trump center stage in this debate, regardless of whether or not he's physically there. they are going to use video of
