DANA PERINO (CO-ANCHOR): Your thoughts about the difference between Trump trying to get a fair trial in New York City and Biden's trying to get a fair trial in Delaware?



TREY GOWDY (FOX HOST): Well, you know Dana, I have this really bad habit, although I'm working on it. I try to be fair. I know there's a very small constituency for that. I think if it had been Donald Jones or Donald Trump or Donald Thomas, we would not have been in New York for the past several weeks. I think if this were Hunter Jones or Hunter Smith, you and I would be talking about something else this morning. So we got to get beyond treating people differently based on their political status or what their last name is. I did gun prosecutions for six years. I went after convicted felons, I went after people who were fugitives from justice. I went after lots of different people who are prohibited from possessing a firearm. But, I bet you there weren't ten cases prosecuted nationwide of addicts or unlawful drug users who possessed firearms or lied on applications. I bet there weren't a dozen. Which makes you wonder, of all the cases you could be pursuing in Delaware, why are you pursuing this one?
