Mr. New York, it's Mark Simone on 710 W.O.R. Well, let's turn to the Dean himself. Ed Rollins has run the biggest, most successful campaign, presidential campaigns ever, and he's on the line with us now. Ed Rollins, how you doing?

Doing well, thank you. How are you, sir? I'm good. Hey, the fundraiser, Trump, Mar-a-Lago, 50 million'm good hey the uh fundraiser trump marilago 50 million is that

the biggest fundraiser you've ever heard of the biggest i've ever heard uh we actually think

about it the campaign i ran 40 years ago the 149 states to ronald regan we got 40 million

dollars in the federal government as publicly financed.

We've won 50 states.

That's what we spent.

So $50 million is an enormous amount of money,

and it shows that the big donors basically have made up their mind.

They've got to play with Trump as opposed to opposing Trump.

That's a good place to be.

The best one to start, I think, is the New York one, because I think it's the least interesting

to most people, more of a scandalous type thing as opposed to really serious stuff.

Anytime you're charged, it's serious, but I think the reality here is if Trump can behave in the course of the six or eight weeks of a trial,

which is going to be hard for him because it's boring, he's going to be tied into a courtroom all day long as opposed to being out campaigning.

But that's the test. And it's not televised, but it'll be widely broadcast repeatedly, you know, that have reporters everywhere reporting on it. But, you know, I think the reality is we're now on our third election cycle, the same game. It's not a 50-state campaign, as I've said before. It's 284 or five states. It's Wisconsin. It's Pennsylvania. It's not a 50 state campaign, as I've said before. It's where you're four or five states. It's

Wisconsin. It's Pennsylvania. It's Arizona. It's, you know, the places that we've talked about
