Special counsel will reportedly focus on Trump's involvement in jan. 6

Joy Reid leads this episode of The ReidOut with the Republican presidential debate featuring five candidates who most people likely agree will almost certainly not be getting the nomination. Our experts weigh in on the fact that while we saw a lot of heated rhetoric in Wednesday night’s debate, in the end they are all likely just running for second place. Also in this episode, we analyze what it could mean that Joe Manchin, the Senate’s most conservative Democrat, has announced that he will not be running for re-election. Plus, we bring you new reporting on special counsel Jack Smith’s plans to make Donald Trump’s role in the January 6th insurrection the centerpiece of Trump’s federal election interference trial. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
