'It's chaos. Most Americans and a growing number of Republicans are done with this.' RepGregLandsman joins _brittanylewis to discuss former Pres. Trump being indicted on federal charges stemming from him retaining White House documents at Mar-A-Lago.
Former President Donald Trump is expected to surrender to authorities Tuesday in Miami after being indicted on federal charges stemming from him retaining White House documents at Mar-A-Lago, as the DOJ decided to bring charges against Trump in Florida rather than Washington, D.C.—a decision that could speed up the legal proceedings, but also be a friendlier venue for the ex-president.
Bringing the charges immediately in Florida could help speed up the legal process, as if the case had initially been brought in D.C., it was broadly expected Trump and his lawyers would have tried to move the case to Florida, slowing down proceedings as the court ruled on that issue. The Southern District of Florida is also known for moving cases to trial more quickly than other federal courts, former federal prosecutor Franklin Monsour told
, saying, “If the prosecution team feels like it has a strong case and can move quickly, there’s no better place to charge a case than the southern district of Florida.”
