During a segment on CNN this Monday, network anchor Pamela Brown challenged Trump attorney Drew Findling about the former president's call where he asked Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to "find" more votes.
As HuffPost points out, the Fulton County district attorney is investigating Trump’s efforts to reverse his election defeat in that swing state, with a key piece of evidence being the call.
Brown played an excerpt of Trump’s call to Raffensperger where he says, “All I want to do is this. I just want to find 11,780 votes, which is one more than we have, because we won the state.”
“Are you worried the facts in this case are not favorable to your client, given what we just heard there and other calls?” Brown asked Findling.

“So, what I’m worried about is that people just listen to eight or nine seconds and don’t really look at evidence,” Findling replied. “So, we look at 62 minutes. We look at all the evidence. And looking at all the evidence, we understand and we know that our client did not break any laws whatsoever.”
"...what I’m going to say, Pamela, is I’m not going to try the case with you or anybody else on TV or in the media,” the lawyer replied. “I mean, that’s something you deal with in court," Findling said.

The stress from possible criminal charges have driven Donald Trump back to some of the old habits that turns off independent voters.
The former president apparently expects to be indicted in Manhattan in connection with a hush money scheme involving adult film actress Stormy Daniels, which has driven him to lash out publicly at district attorney Alvin Bragg, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and his Democratic opponents -- to the dismay of his allies, reported the New York Times.
"The circus continues," former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said over the weekend. "He only profits and does well in chaos and turmoil, and so he wants to create the chaos and turmoil on his terms — he doesn't want it on anybody else's terms. But, look, at the end, being indicted never helps anybody. It's not a help."
Trump has lost support from independents and moderate Republicans for three straight elections, but top adviser Taylor Budowich defended the twice-impeached former president.

"This is allowing the contrast to be made," Budowich said. "Donald Trump is the true fighter for the people, while every other candidate is different versions of the same."
The ex-president announced Saturday that he expected to be arrested Tuesday, although aides later clarified that he had no direct knowledge of that, and he has stepped up his attacks online against DeSantis and other rivals.
"Whether three consecutive days of escalation was a temporary or lasting step away from the relative discipline that defined his last few months of campaigning remained to be seen," the Times reported. "But at the very least, it signaled a long week ahead. On Saturday in Waco, Texas, Mr. Trump is set to host the first large event of his 2024 campaign, returning to his cherished rally stage — where he is often at his most reckless."

A bomb threat interrupted proceedings at a New York courthouse where a hearing was held on Tuesday for New York Attorney General Letitia James' lawsuit against former President Donald Trump.
Bloomberg reported that the bomb threat came moments before a judge was set to gavel in the hearing.
State court spokesman Lucian Chalfen said that a 911 call was investigated and deemed not credible.
The courthouse at 60 Centre Street was temporarily closed while it was searched, Chalfen noted.
James filed the $250 million lawsuit last year. It alleges Trump and his family committed real estate fraud over a period of 20 years.
The New York City Police Department is reportedly preparing as Trump edges closer to an indictment in a separate New York case related to hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels.
