Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and we have some serious
0:05
serious news on the Donald Trump case. Before we get started, please make sure you like, comment
0:11
share and subscribe. Those little things really help us out and they help our channel continue
0:16
to grow. The jury selection process has begun in the Trump-Stormy Daniels case, but there's a lot
0:24
more news than just that happening in the courtroom. The prosecution wants the judge
0:31
to either fine, imprison or do something to Donald Trump because they say he violated the gag order
0:39
Now the judge on his own right issued his own decision about Trump going to jail and the judge
0:46
said you have to be in court every single day of this trial or we'll put you in jail. Think about
0:53
that. This is the leading candidate for the presidency of the United States. This is the
0:58
Republican nominee and the judge is telling him you can't complain. You can't go out on the trail
1:04
You have to be sitting here in this courtroom. Now you tell me this is not about politics
1:09
It's not about campaign interference. It's not about election interference. I beg to differ
1:15
I want you to take a look at the video report on this and let me know what you think when you like
1:19
comment, share and subscribe. I'm Carmine Tabia for Explain America. We love you guys. God bless you. Take care everybody

Welcome back. We are waiting for the first criminal trial of a former president to get underway
1:34
Jurors are waiting behind the scenes. They have not yet started to go through the jury selection
1:39
process. I want to bring you inside the courtroom for just a moment because Donald Trump is being
1:44
read of what is called his Parker warning. This is the judge telling him that he has to appear for
1:50
court. Judge Marchand saying you have the right to be present during the trial and to assist your
1:54
attorneys. Do you understand? Donald Trump says yes. Marchand says if you disrupt the proceedings
2:00
we can proceed with the trial in your absence. Do you understand? Donald Trump says I do
2:06
If you do not show up, there will be an arrest. Marchand says, underscoring that Donald Trump
2:12
doesn't have a choice here. He's got to show up unless the court actually bars him from showing
2:16
up. And while this process, this jury selection process, which we're waiting for, is going
2:24
it's can expect excuse me, can stretch for a number of weeks. The former president is also
2:29
at the same time fundraising off the criminal charges he's facing, and he claims he's being
2:34
politically persecuted as he tries to win back the presidency. More than two thirds of registered
2:39
voters said the hush money charges facing Donald Trump are, quote, somewhat serious
2:44
according to a recent Reuters Ipsos poll. Around a third say the charges lacked seriousness
2:50
Joining me now is former chief of staff to Vice President Mike Pence. Mark Short, really good to
2:56
have you. So Donald Trump wants to use these trials as campaign events because he's got to
3:01
be there anyway. You can see him talking to the assembled reporters, the assembled cameras when
3:06
he goes in and out of court. How does the campaign use this to their advantage? And do they
3:11
really see it as an advantage to have the leader of their party on criminal trial? Well, Katie
3:18
thanks for having me. I think there's no doubt that it did play to his advantage to the primary
3:23
season. I think
