Former Republican attorneys general seem to disagree on the answer to one key question ahead of the criminal trials of former President Donald Trump: If he’s convicted and sentenced to prison time, should he actually go to prison?
In an interview to air Sunday on “Inside with Jen Psaki” at 12 p.m. ET, former attorney general Alberto Gonzales, who served under President George W. Bush, says that if Trump is “convicted of the crimes charged by Jack Smith and Department of Justice, I think he should serve time.”
Gonzales argues that it would only be fair for Trump to serve time if convicted, given that so many January 6 rioters are serving sentences for their actions that day.
