President Donald Trump would have wound up in the slammer if he hadn’t won the 2024 election, acting Attorney General Todd Blanche told Fox News’ Sean Hannity. (Watch the video below.)

In an episode of “Hang Out With Sean Hannity” shared Tuesday, Hannity noted that Trump was convicted of 34 felony counts for falsifying business records to conceal a hush-money payment to Stormy Daniels.
“So is it an accurate statement to say he either wins in ’24, wins the White House ― it’s either the White House or the big house?” Hannity asked.
“Yes… oh, man, oh, yeah, absolutely,” Blanche replied. “Don’t forget ― he had a D.C. case breathing down his neck. He had the Florida [classified documents] case which had been dismissed, but they were appealing it, and then he had a judge in New York who… there’s no scenario in which he wasn’t going to send President Trump to prison.”

In November of 2024, Special Counsel Jack Smith moved to drop the federal cases tied to Trump’s efforts to overturn the election and that the documents be dismissed, citing precedent that a sitting president can’t be prosecuted. The Georgia election case was also dropped. Trump has continued efforts to get his hush-money conviction tossed as well.
Blanche appears to be tied up in Trump’s retribution drive against those he believes to be enemies. Last month, Blanche announced a fund to help victims “who suffered weaponization and lawfare,” according to a press release from the Justice Department. The set up, part of a lawsuit settlement that many feared would benefit convicted Jan. 6 rioters, was met by bipartisan blowback. Blanche said Tuesday the administration wasn’t moving forward with the slush fund.
