Former Trump attorney Joe Tacopina on Sunday said that while there may be a “political bent” to some of the criminal indictments that former president<\/a> is facing, it is “absolutely” possible that he could be convicted.<\/p>\n

Tacopina, who withdrew from Trump\u2019s legal team last week, was asked about the likelihood of a jury convicting<\/a> the former president during an appearance on MSNBC\u2019s “Politics Nation.”\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Is it possible? Absolutely,” Tacopina responded. “You have a jury of twelve who\u2019s going to ultimately decide this.”<\/p>\n

“Do I think there\u2019s a political bent to some of this, the way it\u2019s gone about?” he questioned. “Yes, I do. Do I think these cases are invalid cases? Look, a grand jury voted to indict. You can\u2019t say there\u2019s no way he\u2019ll get convicted or no way he\u2019ll be sentenced. You just can\u2019t say that.”<\/p>\n
