WATCH: Jen Psaki Has This Message For Democrats Regarding Trump's Indictment

Former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki urged Democrats to stay out of the debate surrounding the indictment of former President Donald Trump, emphasizing that it was not the time for celebration or "lock him up" t-shirts.

She said, "Now is also not the time for Democratic candidates to celebrate, to brag, to predict the outcome of the legal cases. If you can, I'd actually just put your head down and stay out of it for now."

On her Sunday show, Psaki suggested that the Biden White House was taking the right approach by avoiding comment on the investigation, stressing that the public cares more about what the President is doing to improve their lives than any hush money payments. "If you're sitting in the White House right now, you are making the right bet that the public cares a whole lot more about what the President is doing to actually make their lives better than what he thinks about a hush money payment to adult film star. It turns out their intended campaign message, the Biden team's, of competence versus chaos may actually even play out before he enters the race. They don’t need to spell out and project what chaos means on the Republican side, the leading candidates, leaders in the House, are doing that for them."

She noted that a poll found that most people felt that the Manhattan District Attorney's case was politicized, with polls showing that 90% of republicans, 70% of independents, and 30% of democrats share that notion. She concluded by stating that defending Democracy and the rule of law is morally right and good politics.

This opinion was echoed by President Biden, who said he had "no comment" on the indictment. In contrast, Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy was highly critical of DA Alvin Bragg, accusing him of attempting to interfere with the presidential election. "As he routinely frees violent criminals to terrorize the public, he weaponized our sacred system of justice against President Donald Trump. The American people will not tolerate this injustice, and the House of Representatives will hold Alvin Bragg and his unprecedented abuse of power to account."
