MSNBC’s Capehart Exclaims at Alina Habba Clip: ‘The Trial Is Not a Campaign Event’

EXCERPT:

CAPEHART: "Brendan, what is she talking about?"

BUCK: "Take one for the DNC. People don't talk like that? No, like, this is very clearly just another effort to undermine the legitimacy of this trial. This is what's been going on all along and it is setting the stage for if he is found guilty, that this is somehow illegitimate. You know, there is a large percentage of the country who that's going to work for. People watching that show will believe that, that this is all a set up and that none of this is real. Look, I struggle to say that if he is not guilty, it is going to have a dramatic impact on the race. It seems shocking to say someone could be convicted of felonies and not be a major turning point in the election, but I'm just not sure it is because so many people are buying stuff like that."

CAPEHART: "What do you think, Basil? Because I just — she is an attorney — the trial is not a campaign event!"
