How some of former Pres. Trump's business allies are reacting to federal indictment:

John Catsimatidis, a New York-based billionaire who donated at least $600,000 in support of Trump's 2020 and 2016 presidential campaigns, downplayed Trump's alleged misconduct but affirmed the legitimacy of the court proceeding.

Businessman John Catsimatidis, the Gristedes grocery chain mogul, speaks at a news conference at the Women's Republican Club, Sept. 16, 2020, in New York.The charges amount to a "complete outrage," said Stephen Moore, who served as an economic adviser for Trump's 2016 campaign."No one is above the law," added Moore, a fellow in economics at the right-leaning Heritage Foundation. "I can't assess whether he violated this law or that law.

"I have never once, not one single time suggested to the Justice Department what they should do or not do relative to bringing a charge or not bringing a charge," Biden said. "I donate money because when I pick up the phone and call people, I like them to answer the phone," Catsimatidis said.
