Constitutional attorney and legal scholar Jonathan Turley reacts to the latest indictment of former President Donald Trump.

"It's excessive. And I think it's also dangerous. It essentially criminalizes challenges to elections."

"There's no sort of limiting principle in this document. You know, they are charging things like the president saying publicly, 'we need to have a recount'."

"You know, Democrats and Republicans challenge these elections routinely. I've covered elections for various networks. I don't know how many now. But we often, if not always, have these challenges."

"Some are more supportive than others, but they're not crimes..."

"What's concerning particularly about this is that [Fulton County DA Fani] Willis didn't really show any semblance of restraint. She indicted everyone for everything she could think of."

"It is sort of the Jackson Pollock School of Prosecution — she threw it all against the canvas."
