    Bad summary. That’s not a criticism at all. Though the summary comes from the website, not the OP.

    Also, linking to Fox News, gross.

    Also, context for people who I know are not going to click on that:

    The former Arkansas governor told the Florida Freedom Summit in Kissimmee, Florida, that such an outcome will make it harder for Republicans down the ticket to win their races if Trump, who is leading in the polls, wins the 2024 Republican nomination.

    “There is a significant likelihood that Donald Trump will be found guilty by a jury on a felony offense next year. That may or may not happen. Before you vote in March, and it might not make any difference to you, but it will make a difference for our chances to attract independent voters in November. It will make a difference for those down-ticket races for Congress and Senate, and it will weaken the GOP for decades to come. As a party, we must support the rule of law,” he said.

    He’s trying to rally Republican voters to make sure they don’t get too complacent with Trump being a sure bet during the next election, not criticizing him.
