and let's get to some more o the week's top stories >> we begin this hour with the strongest indication yet prosecutors are nearing an indictment of former president donald trump, the manhatta da's office now is indicatin two attorneys for the former president he could b criminally charged i connection with a hush money payment to adult film actres stormy daniels made for th texans 16 presidential election that is according to the new york times which said it reporters had spoken to fo people with knowledge of the situation. the times also reports trump was offered the opportunity by a district attorney's office t testify next week to the grand jury that has been collectin evidence and hearing testimony for the criminal probe so far the manhattan da ha failed clients to comment. times ones out will be an usua for a da to notify a potential defendant with out ultimatel seeking charges against him. but, trump is likely t declined that offer accordin to the paper

meanwhile, two defense tierney's for trump confirme to nbc news trump has been tol through his attorney as he can appeal before the grand jury the attorneys say such an offe is standard and that trump was not issued a subpoen compelling his appearance. they also disputed the times reporting the criminal charges could be forthcoming the former president issued long statement on his social media platform late last night denying any wrongdoing calling the matter a, quote, political witch hunt let's bring in nbc news lega analyst andrew weissmann, he's the former council of the fb and served as lead prosecuto in the mueller special counsel's office andrew, it is good to see this morning. we had barbara quit in our las hour suggesting she believes this signal something is coming, an indictment against president trump, the former president an also that often bragged is nea the end of his investigation do you agree with that >> absolutely, not just becaus it is not a good bet to be

against mcquade, there is just no way in god's green eart that the da is going to invite the target to appear voluntarily in the grand jur if the da's not thinking o bringing those charges it is something that you d only at the very last stage. yes, there is always the cas for presidents legal team coul convince them they should no bring the case but given the amount of time i the caliber of the people in a office and thinking throug this issue i think that is extremely unlikely to occur. i think we are seeing, hate to use the word eminently since w heard the georgia da use tha term also. and, we are still waiting. but, i think this is the ver last step before we will see charges in manhattan >> so, andrew, let's get you t go a little further on that. your best gassed as to what th timeline might be.

not just other potential charg but legal matters an proceedings going forward. how long could the stretch and, we know, of course that will happen against th backdrop of trump' presidential campaign, further complicating matters >> yes, it is a great question i do think we are very soon to be in a position of really thinking about what will the former president due to dela things i think it is really important to remember that the new yor state charges are differen than the federal charges in on incredibly important respects. they are federally pardon proof, whatever happens in th presidential election, pardone at the federal level could not affect the state charges and, there is another way that new york charges are different that is different than the georgia charges. which is, we are seeing that the georgia governor and legislature are trying to take steps that allow them to remov

-- and other das they disagre with and so, new york charges are particularly deadly fo somebody like former president trump. because, you do not have any effort by the governor, here or the legislature to signal that they are in any way going to interfere with that case. that being said, the forme president can try and slow the case he needs discovery, he needs time to prepare. as any defendant would he can try and claim that ther is federal preemption, he ca try and claim that he wa immune from prosecution. i don't think those will likel go anywhere. your question is really is enough to help them slow dow the case the answer, unfortunately, i think the answer is that yes t that and, in any criminal case he will have a bunch of novel issues because, we had never been i this situation before. and, no court has been in this situation before so, it will take some time after charges are brought. >> andrew, the legal consensus

seems to be, and barbara was suggesting this earlier. the likelihood of prison tim is minimal to nonexistent in this particular case so, beyond the political implications of this not looking good for the canada, are there any other lega ramifications of an indictment in the stormy daniels case he is not going to go to prison, i guess he might get some kind of fine, what are the practica implications for him, legally, of this case >> so, i think i am going to disagree with that assessments on the issue of whether he could do jail time i am just not prepared to sa in this situation that there i a likelihood one way or th other. it is important to know, there is a very significant lega issue about whether this charg could be sustained as a felony or whether it will remain misdemeanor. if it is a misdemeanor i gre

with you that it is very unlikely he would go to jail whether people to get charge with misdemeanors and you go t jail all the time in new york. i also think that if it is a felony is much more likely tha he would do jail time. in addition, for those peopl who are not just total trump loyalists, there is th political implication of somebody being charged while they run for president it is worth remembering that donald trump used that argumen to say hillary clinton shoul not be voted for and b president. but that she is going to b immersed in all of these criminal and legal cases i mean, now i see the show i on the other foot and you ca imagine people thinking, you know what? let him deal with his criminal cases and be distracted by that he is not something i'm goin to vote for. that is certainly a politica repercussion, not a legal one. >> so, you know the manhatta da, alvin bragg. you have worked with him o different issues over th

years. which ship remind people tha last year he won a convictio of the trump organization on tax fraud, 17 counts, th organization had to pay bi fine he has a lot of other stuff on his plate. being the manhattan da a dealing with crime in new york city but, how significant would thi be beyond the history that w have been talking about this morning? the former president being indicted at all. but, for him to have built thi case and potentially, now, o the doorstep of bringing charges against donald trump >> it will be very significant i don't think you ca underestimate the impacts of the first time in american history a former president may be indicted. having said that i know alvi bragg very well, he comes th to denver, we have rallies every saturday morning he comes with it with a month. he lives near, there he is a sunday school teacher at his home church. we know him well having said that, he wil discuss nothing about this cas

or any other case. i have no indication of what h is going to do but, i think that he has the kind of backbone, and he is very deliberate, serious legal mind and prosecutor. and, whatever he does it i well thought out let's remember he took a lot o flak when he first came in many of us in our communit felt unfairly, when he would not proceed the way some of th assistant prosecutors wanted him to the even wrote a book. he took all of that flak, al of the press that is raising him up now were condemning him and, whatever he does he i going to do it rock solid. >> coming up, it was an amazin week in abu dhabi for th forwards 40 50 cement with knowing your value o international women's day. >> it really was, unbelievable >> i got a chance to sit dow for an epic conversation wit the former secretary hillary rod imprinted clinton. the first lady of ukraine alon

plenty in general elections, but right now the republican candidates are talking or no talking about it all because they are being at real risk to do so, and it would seem lik if you're a republican who tried to come in even just slightly more mainstream tha what trump's, saying i can giv you a lot of his policie without all the crazy this might be a place where you could create some daylight and say, look, i am not going to lead a riot. but, they are fearful of s many republican voter voters who do not agree with th violence of that day, bu bought the big lie, and so man of them still to this moment d not think that president biden was legitimately elected >> there is, i was saying 30, put it more 40% of republica primary electorate supportiv of january 6th, supportive o donald trump no matter what. they are unwavering. so, how do you positio yourself as anything but in th trump lane if you want to have a slice of those voters? that is the conundrum for al

of these candidates, it's less you can break some of that away, and they won't, if it is a crowded field which it looks like it is going to be a w know how this story ends >> yes, talk to us about january 6th but also to ivan's point earlier, trump is pullin punches right now. yes, he is bashing candidate on truth social but nobody see that, but, in the big moment he is not going hard against his potential rivals yet because it is to his benefit t have more of them. because, we know his base is not going anywhere >> that is right, he's going t do what he always does, whic dwindled someone feels lik they are a bit of a threat they're getting a bit of traction, he will come up with the funny nickname for them, hit them a couple of times, an then move on to the next person and, that has worked well fo him in the past because, again no one else knows how to dea with that. no one knows how to deal wit it, and a part of the challeng that some of these other candidates are going to face i that they have not been in the spotlight before

they have not had that glare o them yet they have not, ron desantis ha done very well in florida, and we are all talking about him every day as the big alternative, but he has neve stepped next step out onto a national stage, he is very ver untested, and so when he get out onto that stage, and donal trump starts popping him, does he crumble does someone else step up? january 6th is a dangerous thing within the republica primary, that is why i think you are going to see that ball try and dance around it little bit someone like tim scott i interesting to me, because tim scott, who if i was advising the biden campaign i would say he is the guy you should reall be paying attention to i don't know if he can make it out of the primary, but i thin in a general election he is th most interesting contrast with president biden. but, can someone like a ti scott recapture th conservative argument within a

republican primary without alienating maga voters or, is he going to play into the grievance politics and the others are leaning into? that desantis and that nikki haley are leaning into that is why they can't go afte january 6th, because january six was the ultimate expressio in republican grievance, and this is a grievance party righ now. >> and, ron, clearly donal trump is looking up and down that line of opponents o potential opponents in a primary, he just does not fear any of them, the only one that has gotten some of his attention is ron desantis, who is not in the race yet and a mohsen, even if he gets in w do not know how he would confront perform if he steps outside of tallahassee and on to th national stage you covered these campaigns, you have been on the ground, h had been on arizona and spen all the time and energy of the republican party should donald trump for any of these opponents or potential opponents? >> i think, you know, tim scott, interesting potential kind

that did not hear his name mentioned even one time at cpa over the course of the weekend and, i think that is a fundamental base representativ of a fundamental conservativ base of this republican party, that any candidate is going to need there is one potential candidate who is already down, that is larry hogan announcing yesterday that he, the forme maryland governor is not going to jump into this republican presidential race. he said he does not want those to asian where there is a ca pileup of candidates that allo mr. trump to walk into the nomination, but god bless larr hogan, i did not meet a single republican voter of last two years who told me i am thinkin about larry hogan. god bless them, i hope everything goes well for him i choosing not to run fo president. but, i never heard of anybod that actually wanted him running for president, and, as it goes to january 6th, i just have to say, and there was a great number of folks that did not agree with the physica means in which that da

unfolded, but by and large folks agree with the justification of the costs that is what we must remembe every day, and it is also, whe you're talking about nikki haley and that campaign vide launch, we have not heard he talking about it since the removal of the confederate fla from the south carolina stat house. we are hearing things that hav happened in our recent history that each of us has covered an lived through that we are no going to be hearing about on the republican presidentia campaign trail, unless we al talk about and asked his candidates about it. but, to the voters care? well, we have 11 months to see >> coming up, china's ne warning to the united states plus, what the former nato supreme allied commander say china should really be worried about, he joins us next with that ♪ allergies don't have to be scary.

demonstrating unprecedente tension between the tw superpowers. >> this is not about contain china, this is not about suppressing china, this is not about holding china back >> tensions have ratcheted u since the u.s. shut down tha chinese spy balloon, and the u.s. warned that china was considering sending weapons to china for the war in ukraine russia fightingnow to captur bakhmut in eastern ukraine, bu running so low on ammunition its forces have been fightin with shovels according t british intelligence >> it is a frozen complex, i china gets involved on behal of russia that could materiall help moscow and united state putting the maximum pressure o china to not do that >> this as china is flexing it military muscles over the sout china sea's, flying 500 feet off the wing of this u.s. navy surveillance plane last month. and, continuing to threaten th self-governing island of taiwan, which china views as its territory. president biden has says the u.s. would defend it i

attacked >> andrea mitchell reporting joining us now the forme supreme allied commander o nato he is chief internationa analyst for nbc news, admiral, it is good to see you, let's talk about this heightened rhetoric from china, just in the last couple of days wher you have president xi talkin about the containment an suppression of his country, he claims by the west led by th united states, and painting th united states as the aggressor here, raising the stakes on th side of ukraine and forcin china to get in with materia support on the shot side o russia, where is this headed >> your summary is a prett good one, the tensions are rising at the moment and, we need to just look back three, four, five weeks ago th announcement of the agreemen between the u.s. and the philippines to provide acces to u.s. forces on the northern island of luzon in the philippines, only 200 mile from taiwan. that is really, kind, of the

root of what is happening righ now. the u.s. marine corps announce this abdomen of a new base i guam, then we see the sp balloon coming over the. you can kind of feel extension ratcheting a i believe that the chinese are sending a signal and they ar more concerned about the u.s presence in the pacific than they are about the conflict in ukraine, they do not have vested interest in the success there. what they are going to do is continue to threaten to provid those weapons, i think in th end they will decide not to do that to close here, what they are really concerned about, an they should be is there economy, only 3% growth last year, that is terrible for china, the need 5% minimum, they have t get their economy underway, as we would say in a nautical context, to do that the last thing they need is an increase tension and hyper competitio
