On this week's episode of 'The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart': For the first time in American history, a former president has been convicted for his criminal behavior, while still serving as the presumptive Republican nominee for President. Donald Trump calls the verdict "rigged" and himself “a political prisoner." But here’s the thing; he’s not in prison. And outrage in the MAGA world: Trump's allies, including the House Speaker and several potential Republican vice presidential candidates, are blasting the verdict and unleashing dangerous rhetoric against the justice system and our democracy itself. We'll talk about it all -- the prosecution and the politics -- with Rep. Maxine Waters of California and Politics Nation host, the Rev. Al Sharpton. We also have MSNBC political analysts Michelle Goldberg and Tim Miller and former federal prosecutor Ankush Khardori lend their thoughts. All that and more on “The Saturday Show with Jonathan Capehart.”
