Mar-a-Lago maid, plumber and other workers could testify in Trump criminal case

Sources tell CNN that some staffers and contract workers at former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort could be called to testify against him and his two co-defendants in the upcoming trial scheduled to begin in May 2024. A maid, plumber, chauffeur and woodworker are among some of the potential witnesses. Special Counsel Jack Smith indicted Trump over his handling of classified documents that were brought to his Florida resort after he left the White House in 2021, as well as possible obstruction of the investigation and government efforts to retrieve the material. Former Assistant U.S. Attorney Elie Honig tells Anderson Cooper why this is a "dream scenario" for prosecutors. Plus, Republican Presidential Candidate Chris Christie joins AC360 to discuss the recent developments in the Trump documents investigation, the former President's absence from the debate stage, and the former governor’s upcoming trip to Israel.
