The former president's niece also maintained hope that the charges in Manhattan could serve as a template for future prosecution against her uncle.
the only outspoken critic of the former president from his own family, discussed the indictment against her uncle and was asked by host Katie Phang if he was about to face"true accountability."
"I certainly hope so, Katie, I think this is a long time coming," she said."And there are a lot of people who have been waiting on the edge of our seats for years now to see the dam finally begin to break. And I think New York is a really good place for this to start." She continued:"Now, I think it's fair to say Donald will never truly be held accountable for many of his crimes, including his egregious and malicious mishandling of COVID for example, but I don't think that we should diminish the potential seriousness of what is happening in New York right now. Obviously, we don't know what the charges are, but we will know soon enough...
"These series of alleged crimes that Donald may finally face are foundational to every other charge that he might be looking at out of Georgia and out of D.C."
