Former RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said he is ready to throw his support behind Donald Trump for president even if he is convicted of any of the 91 felony charges he is facing.
During a Sunday panel discussion, ABC host George Stephanopoulos seemed surprised at Priebus' willingness to support Trump despite his criminal problems.
"And you're totally comfortable going into the election with a candidate who's been accused of 91 felonies?" Stephanopoulos said.
"Um," an off-guard Priebus replied, "I'm comfortable if that's what the Republican party wants to move forward with, sure, 110%."
"I would take Donald Trump over Joe Biden every single day of the week, no problem," he continued. "Because where this country has gone and how far we've gone downhill in the last three years is a place that most Republicans aren't willing to go."
Democratic strategist Donna Brazile tried to push back.
"You know, I recognize that Joe Biden may not be might not be your cup of tea or even your bowl of soup," she told Priebus. "But you know what he is? He's somebody who's steady, somebody who understands the issues, and somebody who's fighting for America."
Stephanopoulos cut Brazile off before she could finish.
"I'm afraid that's all we have time for today," he said.
