Republican strategist praises Supreme Court justice, panelists react with disbelief

A Republican strategist praised Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett for her role in blocking Donald Trump's sentencing in a New York case. This decision comes as the trial judge indicated no jail time for Trump's felony convictions. Panelists discussed the political implications of Trump's legal issues, with some stating that the recent election showed voters did not view these charges as disqualifying. They noted that Trump's response has downplayed the significance of the legal challenges he faces. The conversation included mixed reactions to Barrett's actions, with one strategist suggesting critics owe her an apology. This prompted laughter from other panelists, indicating disagreement with that sentiment.
