Judge Andrew Napolitano joined Scott to discuss the DOJ’s case against Donald Trump. Napolitano believes it is an incredibly strong case and that the former President—and current Republican front-runner—is likely facing prison time. He and Scott run through what was revealed in the indictment, how it fits into what we already knew and why a lot of the common counterarguments from Trump fans likely won’t hold up in court.

• “Judge Andrew Napolitano: The case against Donald Trump” (Orange County Register)

Andrew P. Napolitano, a former judge of the Superior Court of New Jersey, is the of the daily show Judging Freedom. Judge Napolitano has written seven books on the US Constitution.
