You know other people have done things that are worse. Look at Clinton! What he did in the White House.” ((Courtney, Michigan)) “Yeah, we should all be held accountable for our actions. Absolutely! No matter who we are.” ((Jay, New York City)) “Alright, you are trying to prosecute him, but it’s gonna backfire and he becomes president. Because that has happened in the past. They tried to prosecute him back in 2016 and guess what happened? He becomes president.” ((Gwen, Minnesota)) “I think it’s a fair trial. // It makes me feel that of all the things he’s done, all the corruption and all the corrupt things he’s done, finally this little technicality on the payoff to the porn star is the one that’s going to bring him in.” ((Scott, New York City)) “I think it will probably work against the Democrats in my opinion. I think it will rally his supporters.” ((Ulaf, Germany)) “It’s a very beautiful country. What I don’t understand is how this country elects men like Trump.” ((VOA reporter)) “”Do you think it’s gonna be a fair trial?” ((Ulaf, Germany)) “I believe in this system. I think it will be fair, sure.” ((Oscar, New York City)) “I think as a person in power, people with money, I think you have more of a fair trial with this justice system. That’s just how it is.” ((Katie, New Jersey)) “It’s not a big deal! The president of the United States did something wrong! If it was you or me, we will be indicted!” ((Aaron, Germany)) “You know, it’s America. He’ll get the same exact fair trial that everybody else gets. // Yeah, I think it’s a really big deal that the former US president is going on trial … (Passing by man: “It’s bullshit!”) …and there you go: everybody has got an opinion! It’s America!” ((Virginia, Germany)) “Maybe indicted, but I am not sure if he will be arrested. // He should be treated the same as any American citizen, regular American citizen, if they were put in the same situation. The law is the law. Nobody should be able to get a free ride because of who you are or how much money you have.” » Subscribe to VOA News: https://bit.ly/3KIPysi » Watch more VOA News video: https://www.youtube.com/c/VOANews Voice of America (VOA) is the largest U.S. international broadcaster, providing news and information in more than 40 languages to an estimated weekly audience of 236.8 million people.
