Trump PAC pays bill for private eye

Donald Trump's lawyers and political action committee sought the help of Sean Crowley, a private investigator in New York, as legal troubles for the former president began mounting in Manhattan this spring.

How will Georgia case affect Trump's support?

Former President Donald Trump canceled a news conference he scheduled for next week after his lawyers asked him to compile evidence he claimed would clear him and his allies of any wrongdoing in the Georgia 2020 election interference case into legal filings. Republican strategist and CBS News political analyst Leslie Sanchez and Ashley Etienne, CBS News political contributor and former communications director for Vice President Harris, joined CBS News to discuss the possible effect the Georgia election interference case will have on Trump's support in the state, next week's first Republican presidential debate and a new Associated Press poll on President Biden's approval rating on the economy.
