who is head of the trump organization? donald trump. but if you want to know what he did, you have a judge who has found that he committed fraud, we are about to find out the monetary component of that. in a few weeks. and we have a jury that found that he sexually assaulted e. jean carroll, we are going to have trial to on that. and then obviously, we have four separate grand jury investigations, indictments that have come up. and as you note, that means that four separate grand jury found that there was probable cause. so it is not like there is no evidence that has already been determined. now obviously, there will be a criminal trial, and he will map his defenses. but to date, it's not like we have heard really the defenses from him. we have just heard label was about a witch hunt, they gerrymandered this, he's a victim. but it will be interesting to see whether the electorate actually cares. so we will have this divergence between the legal world, and the political world. and to see whether they overlap, whether people actually uph
