mary: arguably yes. i think there are four laws, total, both federal and state that trump arguably violated. whether a prosecutor could prove that beyond the exclusion of any reasonable doubt is a different question because some of the laws require that trump intended to invalidate the election, knowing that he would be overturning a democratic result rather than buying into some of the conspiracy three c has been trafficking on us airways. i certainly think there is a strong case to be made that president trump violated both federal law and georgia state law in trying to overturn the election in this way. phil: if that case was made, what sort of consequences when he face? mary: these are, for the most part, federally statutes -- federal statutes. they would involve prison time and that would depend on what a jury would believe in what specific facts can be proven, but these are not misdemeanors -- these are not minor charges. they would carry a prison sentence. phil: if this were to go to court, who wo
