RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
BAIER: “So basically you are saying by wrapping this up and actually having the formal sentencing it opens the door to a pretty solid appeal based on what you saw in this case?”
GOWDY: “Yeah, you have to have a sentencing before you can appeal trial errors. We would have been in a state of limbo had he sentenced him after his term ended in 2029. This way he can perfect his appeals, if he wins on appeal, he also can make this a political issue in the midterms, Bret. I think one of the reasons he was elected is people are tired of the Alvin Braggs of the world. You have people being set on fire in New York and you are going to tell your prosecutors to go pursue a bookkeeping error? It’s going to be a political issue in the midterms. So I get nobody wants to be a convicted felon, except some hip-hop stars, the rest of us don’t want to be. But if you are going to be one, be one now and don’t have it hanging over your head while you are serving as president.”
