Former President Trump has employed a court-to-campaign in the run-up to the November election, taking a break from legal battles to make his pitch to voters. Although engulfed in legal battles, Trump has struck "political gold" and is wreaking havoc on President Biden's re-election bid, Fox News contributor Marc Thiessen argued on "The Faulkner Focus," Thursday.

MARC THIESSEN: I think this whole thing is helping him enormously. I feel very badly for President Trump that he has to go through this. But it's political gold for him. First of all, it's creating sympathy for him. He's facing 91 charges at the federal, state and local level. Charles Manson faced ten. Our polls show that people think this is unfair. And so it's creating sympathy for Donald Trump. Second thing it's doing is distracting us from the issues that voters say they care about. I mean, our campuses are on fire. The border is on fire. The world is on fire. We've got wars raging on two continents. We just learned that Joe Biden has threatened to cut off aid to Israel if they go into Rafah. And the left wants us to talk about a porn star. Voters look at that and they say, what are these people talking about?
