"
He's taken it out that the Supreme Court said cannot be covered, which is official conduct, whether you agree or disagree.
I published a big report several weeks ago at the New York University Just Security website where we went through with my co-authors line by line and we said, hey, almost everything in this indictment rides through and the new indictment pretty closely tracks our analysis.
So the Supreme Court did, despite writing a terrible opinion, I disagreed with it in so many ways. It did leave an opening for unofficial conduct, political conduct, Donald Trump acting as a political candidate.

I think that if Donald Trump doesn't get reelected, this superseding indictment, that means replacement indictment is going to put him in jail.
The one issue that will be interesting for the courts, I think Jack Smith got it right, but there's going to be a fight over it. How do you treat Mike Pence?
