RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
COOPER: “Counsel, John Dean. What do you make of this July hey, eighth day?”

HONIG: “Well, so that‘s a really interesting development that there could be some agreement here between the parties to do a trial in July or August. And if that‘s the deal, I think I see why each side might be interested in that. It tells me, first of all that Jack Smith has now concluded that it‘s very unlikely he‘s going to get his January 6 trial and we just saw the Supreme Court take that case yesterday. I think he‘s done the math and seeing that that‘s essentially a done deal in terms of trying it before the election, this would allow Jack Smith to at least try the Mar-a-Lago case before the election and from Trump‘s team perspective, they get the win of moving the January 6 trial until after trial until after the election and it allows them they would go ahead with the Florida trial, the Mar-a-Lago trial, but you‘re going to have a good jury there. If you‘re Donald Trump, you‘re going to have half that jury is going to be Trump‘s supporters, Trump voters. So there‘s also questions about the judge that the judge has been good for Trump‘s. so I think if you‘re Trump‘s lawyers and we‘ve had reporting on this, you‘re feeling pretty good about your chances in Florida.”
