and therefore it makes you question whether they did believe anything anything at all or do believe anything at all. they are terrified of trump. they're terrified, perhaps, of what he might have on them. they are certainly terrified of the voters who love trump. and i guess what i would finally say, simone, is that the founders of this country who were not perfect, their idea was that it would be like leading the, plow serving in congress, maybe run for president, then you go back to your farm. you don't have to run for president. if these people are willing to lower themselves and degrade themselves by saying, essentially, we will support our guy for our nomination, even if he's in prison next year. what kind of science fiction film is this? >> michael beschloss, you are a man that has seen so much. you know so much. and i really appreciate your insight tonight. thank you. >> thank you, simone. if you live long enough, you
forward. >> we certainly appreciate you staying, especially on a 90-degree day. thank you so much, appreciate your time. that wraps it up for me this hour, i'm lindsey reiser, i'll be back tomorrow at two pm eastern. simone starts right now. >> >> greetings everyone, you are watching symone. fulton county district attorney fani willis has done what no other person in this country has ever been able to do. hold a former president to a new level of accountability for his actions. in donald trump's case, in this image, a mugshot. like any other criminal defendant would have, for his attempts to overturn the 2020 presidential election. we're laying out what happens now for donald trump and his 18 codefendants. plus, new polling suggests donald trump's four indictments are weighing heavily on voters minds. but when it comes to whether his presidential primary opponents care about his phony charges and commit to -- all of them say they'll stick by him. and 60 years ago, hundreds of
abortion openly. does she have a clear enough stance here? >> not at all, simone. i couldn't make heads or tails by the end of her answer where she stood. she got into it like heads, and she seemed to be arguing against the national abortion ban, but saying that she's unapologetically pro-life, and at one point put it in the peoples hands. so, there was not a clear statement there about where she stands on abortion. and that's because all of these candidates, including nikki haley, really don't want to talk about it. they realize that even a lot of republicans who are going to be voting in these republican primaries and caucuses do not agree with their stance on abortion. much less, americans who are democrats or independents, or even republican-leaning independents. they know they're in trouble. they don't want to talk about it, and they get into word salads when they start talking about it like she did there. >> right after the debate, it
he doesn't tend to stand by his man. i've got to somebody who knows a lot about this tomorrow morning, i'm gonna be talking to michael cohen who has written an entire book about how donald trump threw him under the bus, which seems to be happening with some of donald trump's codefendants in georgia. we are going to talk about that tomorrow morning at 10 am. that's tonight's last word, the 11th hour starts right now. tonight, entering the next phase. all 19 defendants in georgia have turned themselves in. so what happens now? and, defendant trump's impact on candidate trump's chances in 2024 and the political implications of it all. then, recapping another historic week featuring a mugshot scene around the world. michael best loss is here to put it all in perspective as the 11th hour gets underway on this friday night. greetings, i am simone sanders townsend in for stephanie ruhle. tonight, the criminal prosecution in the georgia 2020
>> i did see it on television. >> what did you think? >> handsome guy. wonderful guy. >> joining me now, retired marine corps lieutenant colonel amy mcgrath, she also ran for senate in kentucky against mitch mcconnell. and the cofounder of the lincoln project, he worked on a number of republican campaigns. read, these numbers that trump has among republicans remain strong, but do you think this puts the party in a bind because their voters are demanding a candidate who keeps losing to independents? >> look, as i said before on the 11th hour with you, simone, they made a deal with the devil and now they're paying for it. the devil always comes for his do. you showed those numbers from reuters are from a poll last month that showed that 37% of independents are more likely to vote for joe biden because of this. only 8% said they're more likely to vote for donald trump. i think you also see that 85% of republican voters want donald trump, ron desantis, or
versus what trump is accused of was maybe 10%. certainly he obstructed justice. certainly he abused power. certainly nixon did other things, but to compare that to what trump is very credibly accused of, fomenting an insurrection, could have stolen this presidency on january six and brought down our democracy, stealing voting rights of georgia. that's what we have been hearing about this week. stealing classified documents with nuclear secrets and secret war plans and maybe giving them to people who should not have had them, not only visiting reporters but maybe hostile powers. we don't know that yet. that speculation. these are things that put anything that nixon did in the shade because the net result of all of this would be, if trump had succeeded with some of these things, we would be living in a dictatorship right now, simone.

violence? >> thank you for having me. it same's like our little flicker in south carolina, i think they are going to take up, come january, is they want to expand access to guns in south carolina. so normal republican playbook, catering to the nra and forget the rest of us. this is unfortunate. i can only shake my head as i look at jacksonville and what we're having to go through now. >> senator mcleod, how do you plan to fight what senator bright matthews just mentioned, the love just lycian expected to come at the top of they looked elusive here on guns, as well as this current legislation and now the state supreme court has said is going to be able to go forward? >> thank you for having us, simone. what we are seeing and
