Mary McCord:对特朗普审判结果的质疑是对法治的严重破坏,损害了人们对刑事司法系统的信心。这与呼吁司法改革不同,改革是为了改进系统,而不是因为认为整个系统都是骗局。她还指出,最高法院无权干预尚未进入上诉程序的州刑事诉讼,并驳斥了关于该案是联邦政府武器化或由拜登总统策划的指控。她强调,该案是州级检察官的决定,与联邦政府无关。她还指出,拜登总统对司法部的独立性表示尊重,其自身行为也证明了这一点,例如,司法部正在起诉一位民主党参议员和拜登的儿子。 Andrew Weissmann:最高法院对州级案件的管辖权有限,只有在违反基本正当程序的情况下才会介入。他驳斥了特朗普声称被禁止作证的说法,指出特朗普可以选择作证,但他选择不作证。他还指出,特朗普的律师建议了量刑日期,之后却抱怨该日期具有政治性,这是不合理的。他还强调了拜登总统对司法部独立性的尊重,并指出司法部正在起诉一位民主党参议员和拜登的儿子,这证明了司法部的独立性。他认为,对审判结果的攻击与将要提出的法律问题是不同的,并且对法官和陪审团的攻击是危险和具有煽动性的。 Andrew Weissmann:所有刑事诉讼都是根据事实和适用的法律量身定制的,这并非不当行为。他驳斥了关于该案是为特朗普量身定做的说法,并解释说,检察官是根据事实和适用的法律对特朗普提起诉讼的。他还驳斥了特朗普声称自己直到最后才知道相关罪行的说法,指出这一问题在审判前就已经被讨论过。 Mary McCord:她详细解释了为什么认为对该案的量身定制的说法是错误的,并指出该案是根据事实和适用的法律提出的。她还驳斥了特朗普声称自己不知道相关罪行的说法,并指出这一问题在审判前就已经被讨论过。她还强调了检察官在该案中所做的努力,以及他们如何向特朗普解释了相关罪行。

The hosts discuss the immediate aftermath of Donald Trump's criminal trial verdict, focusing on the political spin and disinformation surrounding the trial, particularly claims that the trial was rigged or a scam.

Shownotes Transcript

It’s been less than a week since the jury reached a verdict in Donald Trump’s criminal trial and the political spin on the result is dizzying. MSNBC legal analysts Andrew Weissmann and Mary McCord seek to debunk several claims entered into the public discourse, especially around the Department of Justice being involved in a state case and that the trial was somehow ‘rigged’. They also address some breaking news out of Wisconsin, where Kenneth Chesebro, Jim Troupis and Michael Roman were criminally charged in that state's  fake elector scheme. Then, Andrew and Mary review the latest in Florida after Special Counsel Jack Smith refiled his motion to bar Trump from making statements that endanger law enforcement.
