Former GOP Gov. Drowned Out By Chorus Of Boos After Predicting Trump Will Be Found Guilty

Former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson was met with boos at the Florida Freedom Summit on Saturday after telling the crowd there is a 'significant likelihood' that Trump will be found guilty by a jury.

Republican presidential candidate Asa Hutchinson encountered a hostile crowd at Saturday's Florida Freedom Summit when he voiced his belief that former President Donald Trump will likely face conviction next year.

Trump is currently facing four separate criminal indictments, totaling 91 felony charges, related to various allegations including campaign finance fraud, his theft of classified documents, his efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election, and his role during the Capitol riot of January 6, 2021.


Hutchinson, who has been a vocal critic of the former President, shared his prediction for the outcomes of Trump's trials in Georgia, New York, Florida, and Washington, D.C., during the GOP summit, noting that convictions could disqualify Trump from the presidency.

He stated:

"There is a significant likelihood that Donald Trump will be found guilty by a jury on a felony offense next year ... I’m not even sure he’s qualified to be the next president."

The crowd booed Hutchinson in response.

Many said the moment demonstrated all anyone needs to know about the MAGA movement.







Hutchinson's statement reflects his skepticism about Trump's potential return to the White House. In the past, Hutchinson has expressed doubts about Trump's eligibility to run for the presidency in 2024, citing concerns about his actions related to the events of January 6.

Hutchinson has previously cited Section 3 of the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, which prohibits anyone who has engaged in insurrection from holding government office.

Section 3 of the 14th Amendment stipulates that individuals who have taken an oath to support the U.S. Constitution and have "engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof," are prohibited from holding any government office.

Hutchinson explained that the enforcement of this provision would likely involve lawsuits aiming to establish that Trump engaged in insurrection, rendering him ineligible. He further suggested that individual states might independently make such determinations, potentially triggering legal challenges.

Nothing seems to get conservatives' goats quite like celebrities having political opinions—well, liberal and leftist celebrities, anyway.

They seem to love it when weird right-wing celebs like Kevin Sorbo get on the internet and say bizarre, usually counterfactual nonsense, or when JK Rowling does her darnedest to make her legacy not about Harry Potter but about her weird obsession with trans people.

She also said that the United States is the "greatest predator empire that has ever existed" and said it should be dismantled.
