So Chuck Todd has conservative Stephen Moore and reporter Kasie Hunt on Meet the Press.
Stephen Moore is pre-outraged by the Michael Cohen raid, following the Fox News talking point that the FBI is somehow in "collusion" with the deep state and violating Cohen's "rights" in taking evidence from his home.
CHUCK TODD: Steve Moore, how concerned should Trump supporters be about Michael Cohen?
STEPHEN MOORE: Look, I thought the raid on Cohen's office was a bridge too far for this investigation.
CHUCK TODD: Do we know that, though?
The thing is, what we DO know is a judge had proof from the prosecutors that Cohen was hiding stuff or was likely to destroy evidence, enough proof to warrant a warrant.
But that doesn't matter to the pro-Trumpers, who will use what we DON'T know to delay the obvious conclusions. And Trump's defenders will only accept into evidence that which supports their team.
But facts are facts in the courtroom. And that's what has Trump terrified. But guess what? Kasie Hunt is worried, too.
STEPHEN MOORE: Unless Democrats can convince Republicans that there's something here, then I don't think the investigation's going to--
(OVERTALK) [One in five Republicans think there may be impeachable offenses in the Trump White House.]
EDDIE GLAUDE JR.: And that's what's interesting about the one in five, right? Even though one in five may believe that he has committed impeachable offenses, do they care?
CHUCK TODD: Right.
