Ron DeSantis responds to Donald Trump receiving a target letter from Jack Smith regarding his January 6 conduct:

"I think it was shown how he was in the White House and didn’t do anything while things were going on. He should have come… forcefully."https://t.co/pz06TOfmIV pic.twitter.com/65G6zYJibh

[Did Trump’s conduct on January 6 rise to criminality? Not on the basis of anything we’ve seen, and the J6 committee made it all public. But Smith’s scope also includes the “stop the steal” effort, and that might be more problematic for Trump, especially with the fake-electors effort. It’s best to wait and keep our options open for an indictment and whatever underlying evidence supporting it — assuming one comes at all. — Ed]
