Steve Bannon presses Christina Bob as she lays out why the Georgia indictment is on life support and why state prosecutors are forcing a political fantasy instead of a real case.

[STARTS WITH MSNBC CLIP]
STEVE BANNON (HOST): You’re going to be my wingman, but I’ve got you in here for a special reason. This first guy, we’re trying to get when H1B’s and President Trump’s focus on the economy again. But I think people are kind of missing the Democratic plot here. Help me. This happened during our morning show on MSNBC. Is the, and tell me what’s going down in Georgia, because I guess you’ve got a pardon in Arizona, but it’s not really a pardon. I want people to understand that. But maybe we replay this. They are talking about prosecuting the President of the United States and what they think is a live state charge by Fannie Wilson people, correct?
CHRISTINA BOB (GUEST): Yes, and that’s what I had to verify with you while we were watching the clip because it’s so kind of mind boggling. Donald Trump is still listed as a defendant. They’re still indicating that they’re proceeding forward. It’s unclear to me at this point if they actually plan on prosecuting this case.
STEVE BANNON (HOST): Oh, they plan on prosecuting it, don’t they? Who? They’ve got them down. It’s a state case. Only the state attorney general? I don’t even know if they overruled.
CHRISTINA BOB (GUEST): Well, yeah, Carr, that’s another one. I mean, Carr is a nightmare for the state of Georgia. But Peter Scandalakis is the executive director, I think, of the prosecutor council for the state of Georgia. He’s the one that took this over. That indicates to me that there was no other sitting prosecutor who wanted to actually take this case. He took it on, apparently, because there was no district attorney or AG or anybody else that wanted to inherit this turd of a case.
So he took it. There’s a status conference hearing December 1st. The pleading that came out today or the order that came out today looked like the case could be proceeding forward. He’s not really a sitting prosecutor. So there is a possibility that he put himself on the list to be able to file a motion to dismiss the case. So that’s what I’m hoping happens. That’s what should happen. I don’t know where he will prosecute this out of. I mean, he’ll have to kind of jerry rig and create a team to do this.
STEVE BANNON (HOST): Oh, they would do that in a second. Before the mid term to get Trump in a trial next summer. Look, it’s not going to happen. Right. But my point is, these are the type of fantasies they keep driving.
CHRISTINA BOB (GUEST): Right. And it was so unbelievable that as the clip was playing, I had to verify with you. Like, am I hearing what I’m hearing because this is so bizarre that they would try to do this. But yeah, there are other arguments to be made, though. And in the order that came out said, you’ve got to raise your motions now. Otherwise I’m going to assume we don’t have any. Like, I’m going to assume that we’ve heard everything that’s going to be heard. There likely will be other motions raised.
STEVE BANNON (HOST): The status conference in December, could it be dismissed then, or is that when he sets up the process to dismiss it.
CHRISTINA BOB (GUEST): It could be either way. And like I said, I don’t really know what this prosecutor’s going to do. I was surprised that it happened this way. I thought it would be dismissed by paper rather than having a hearing. So they may actually be trying to move forward on this.
STEVE BANNON (HOST): If they have any possibility of keeping this thing in the public eye. They remember he tried to illegitimately steal the 2020 election, which we know is opposite.
Two things I want to get to because the Tina but in particular, when I talk to people explaining the president is trying to be helpful here. Yeah, Todd Blanche and the team, Ed Martin, the pardons team, particularly with these electors. But everybody is kind of leaning on the shovel now and saying, hey, all the electors get pardoned. OK, that has no bearing on this state case, correct? You mean in Arizona, and I guess it is, is it in Michigan? They are going to go down and they are going to go even harder here. Are they not going to try to?
CHRISTINA BOB (GUEST): Well, I mean, broad brush, I would say it doesn’t really have any bearing on a state case. The president doesn’t pardon state cases. That usually comes from the governor. That is the traditional talking point on this. However, the argument to be made with the pardons, particularly in this Georgia case, is a little bit different. Michigan is already dismissed, so it doesn’t really matter. Wisconsin and Wisconsin, Nevada, Arizona are still open, but our indictment has been thrown out. So it’s on, I mean as long as the case is administratively open, but there is no valid charge position.
STEVE BANNON (HOST): So is it Wisconsin and?
CHRISTINA BOB (GUEST): Wisconsin, Nevada. Arizona State still open. They wins it. I want to get all the stories about these people because they’ve been tortured for a couple of years and spent an enormous amount of money. So it doesn’t matter. Wisconsin, Wisconsin, Nevada, Arizona are still open, but our indictment has been thrown out. So it’s in the process. Oh yeah. I mean as long as the case is administratively open, but there is no valid charging document. Judge Troopis, Troopis out of Wisconsin, he’s going to be in studio. He is fantastic. Tuesday, Wednesday. I want to get all the stories about these people because they have been tortured for a couple of years and spent a lot of money.
STEVE BANNON (HOST): A hundred percent.
CHRISTINA BOB (GUEST): And Troop is actually in Wisconsin. Prior to coming up with the alternate electors plan, he actually went to the attorney general and they had a meeting, a hearing, whatever, and he said, hey, we believe that we need to preserve the electors’ votes. He went and told them, hey, this is what we’re going to do. Said this to the attorney general. Let us. We’re going to go forward and do. And then, lo and behold, they turn around and indict Troopis and Mike Roman and Ken Chesboro. Not even the electors.
I mean the Wisconsin case reeks to high heaven. But back to the pardon issue. The way the pardons could actually impact the state cases, if you want to go down that road, is what they were talking about in the clip. These are not actually state charges. These should be federal charges. It is a federal election. Federal law supersedes state law on this issue. And the bigger issue of what is actually being charged, even though they are state charges, is a federal offense. So that pardon should apply to this case and to these state charges.
It is an argument to be made. I don’t know who or how anybody is going to raise it. But normally a federal pardon, a presidential pardon, would not impact a state case. But there actually is an argument.
STEVE BANNON (HOST): And why is that?
CHRISTINA BOB (GUEST):
Because it is a federal election. The heart of what they are doing is a federal election. But then they would be admitting that they charged you illegitimately. Because the people in Arizona are not going to agree with that. The standards out there are out of control.STEVE BANNON (HOST):But then they would be admitting that they charge you illegitimately because it’s, I mean, the people in Arizona are not going to agree with that. The state, the AG out there is out of control.
No, the AGs and Fannie Willis is. They will all oppose it, but the judge could agree with you.
STEVE BANNON (HOST): Yes.
CHRISTINA BOB (GUEST): So it’s a motion that they might bring.
