CNN presidential historian Tim Naftali breaks down why the indictment of former Presidential Trump over the alleged mishandling of classified documents is a 'seismic moment.' #CNN #News
The Apprentice President Show will still run about two years more. I know the last Episode of the Apprentice President will be "Leavenworth VIP Prisoner"
Who know lazy democrats would bring Tump back to the Whitehouse like they did in 2016! So lucky Biden didn't do any of the Katie Berry, Gaga GuGu , Beyoncé or Taylor Swift concert otherwise he would ve lost.
Anyone who doesn’t understand that power comes with obligations, & that public paid service is bound by the Constitution does not belong in the Oval. They don’t even belong on the PTA.
Former White House chief of staff, retired Marine Gen. John Kelly, said, "President Trump is the most flawed person I've ever known. The depths of his dishonesty is just astounding to me. The dishonesty, the transactional nature of every relationship, though it's more pathetic than anything else. He is the most flawed person I have ever met in my life,"
@Kiss My Axe Huh? I'm not claiming anything has happened, he may very well beat this charge, doubt it as he constantly admits his guilt, I'm just saying crooks eventually end up in jail and he is facing plenty of legal battles still.
Our most serious secrets are in those documents he walked off with. These secrets in the hands of an unstable sociopath has catastrophic potential. This is as serious a crime as it gets.
yous are delerious every president keeps documents they have the power as president to declassify and they were under guard joe bidens many unsecure document stashes were obtained while he was not the president one lot kept in a garage like trump or hate him thats for the polls when you vote if this goes ahead your country is not free if they can fulsly prosecute him they can do it yo anyone even you your family your kids one day if they are grown and so on you should sll be very worried
@Kiss My Axe Youre russian, why do you care so much? You guys really want Trump back in office dont you? Unfinished business? Trump and Putin are secret lovers? Russians miss mcdonalds?
This a terrifying perspective. Presuming Guilty when charged And anyone not charged is honorable? That’s only possible in a totalitarian society or in perfect world with no abuse of power (a totalitarian government is true)
@@jct1616 What is truly terrifying is the number of aids, attorneys, and advisors surrounding him who have been convicted (and some of them consequently pardoned by Trump) while he has remained untouchable because of the office he held. It isn't terrifying to suggest that he lacks honor, it's called using your eyes, ears and brain.
"Former Director of the Nixon Library" failed to tell you that Trump looked up to Nixon. Even let Nixon use his private plane to fly to Texas. Nixon, Trump's hero got away with the crimes and Trump thought he could to.
@@rathertiredofthemess2841 "I knew that then! I was 12" I was 4 and playing with my puppy. Remember my dog (RIP) and remember Nixon's ugly face on the TV as my parents ranted. The concept of hanging someone had not entered my mind at that point. Not disagreeing with you. But when I was older I thought Nixon should have went to prison.
Trump must have imposed upon him the most severe punishment, so as to deter any future presidents from engaging in such blatant criminality and putting the country through absolute heII.
Future president. I guess when Biden stored his papers in a garage and been moved by his drug addict son. Yes he was just a vp. Trump should have just destroyed the papers. It worked for Hillary
After stashing those documents, and lying about them to DOJ, he has a big golf tournament with the Saudi's at his golf course. Now the Saudi's are in the PGA. Just something to talk about.
The Saudi's on principal should have nothing to do with Trump after all his muslim bashing, but of course it is about status and money. If Trump was an average american, he would already be rotting in jail. He may get convicted but I would guess that he will never see the inside of a jail cell. Jail is for poor people.
so you dont like him so youl see this injustice as ok remember if they can do this witch hunt to him they can do it to anyone he had the ability to declassify documents all presidents keep some documents trumps was secured and he was following the process like him or hate him facts are facts biden has documents everywere in unsecure places and from when he wasnt president so it was fully ilegal but that seems ok if trump gets prosecuted for this your country is not free anymore and the world will no longer look at you the same way with the same respect
Beautifully laid out by Tim Naftali. There's no longer any reason ~ rational or irrational ~ to continue to support Trump, and *anyone* who does should either get therapy or just bow-out of American society.
... there's no reason to support Trump? Not one? There's a strong argument to be made that a large group of people committed Treason during the Russia Hoax. If you can't come up with a single reason why people might be seeing this garbage and standing behind Trump means that your opinion isn't credible. It's opinion, and it's yours. But it's like me saying "There is no rational reason for anyone to question that the sky is red."
He got caught with his hand in the cookie jar. Ate cookies. Shared cookies. Hid the cookie jar. Said he declared the right to have the cookies. Then said him doing something wrong is a hoax.
@Kiss My Axe I know it's fun to pretend this helps Trump, but the man is basically cyanide for normies, the people that are in the center. Just like last election, nobody in the middle is going to vote for Trump.
Idk. I am wary of someone who gets on the news and says that it's not surprising that Trump would take things when he believed he wouldn't be leaving. It's provably false, he KNEW he lost the election, it's on the record that he was told repeatedly that he lost and if he thought that the trauma he inflicted on the country on January 6 would be enough to keep him in office, that just deepens how criminal his mindset was. What an irresponsible comment that guy made, unchecked.
If Trump doesn't go to jail and his followers, then we are opening the door to every political person to do what they want because they are above the law... We can't let that happen! Lock all of them up!
every president to daye has already declassified documents for there personal library every single one of them but because its not talked about the media has told you like he is keeping something to be a spy biden has documents kept everywere unsecure to unlike trumps that were under guard bidens were obtained before he became president if this goes ahead like trump or hate him they can then do it to anyone and you are all no longer free
A little better 30 people in 3 days , your killing on this one. What would I need to go to jail for. Because you don't like the fact that we were right about Biden ?...
He’d never get away with that. Some other nation’s agents would squeal. There may already be damage done because of Trump’s ramblings. Every spy network, including allied countries are honing in on Mar-a-Lago. Particularly, Israelis and Saudis, with trump boasting a top secret plan to invade Iran. He has all these classified documents and he doesn’t have a clue who he is talking to. He is now an international security risk. Trump Inc needs to be closed down, permanently.
The main reason in corporate America terminated employees get security escorts out when they leave and their belongings are searched. Disgruntled employees have a tendency to want to take company property to either benefit themselves or hurt the company. Trump was clearly a disgruntled employee. He took those particular documents to either hood over the government’s head to get them to overturn the election or to hurt the US people for voting him out by giving them or selling them to our enemies. Plain and simple! Doesn’t take a genius to figure that out. No other reason in the world for him to have those particular documents in his possession!!
Until recently, he had lawyers/judges to ‘let him slide.’ Those lawyers/judges are either really old or dead. And at that time, he was just a ‘businessman.’ Now, many more folks have seen him for the POS he is, lawyers/judges not willing to ‘let him slide.’
This is a very simple thing to bring up, but when it becomes appropriate for Trump to be handcuffed like anyone else would, he needs to be handcuffed. Under any circumstances, it is one of the most humbling things a human being can endure. Trump needs to be humbled to be considered among the masses as a human being. His arrogance needs to be cuffed to his audacity behind his back.
What I find so shocking is how so many Americans can be shocked when it’s made known that a criminal committed a crime. And then characterize it as “ground breaking” and “seismic”.
I can believe people believe this clown is right when he’s openly wrong and worse is Pence! The one who weaponized the justice system is Trump and lying pence
Unrelated side note - Mr. Naftali… BLESS your whole heart and soul for nonchalantly throwing that “and someday, she” in when referring to the potential future of the office of the presidency.
At this point he's been given enough deference as a former President. It's time to treat him as citizen Trump and throw the book at him. He's done this to himself by continually refusing to treat OUR documents as he should. He as President put our Constitutional government at risk for his own political gains. I hope that indictment also comes soon.
The timing is just too convenient on the same day joe biden has evidence against him handed to congress proving at least 5 million was taken by the bidens from Ukraine and biden needs to explain what the money was for, but rather than do that he sends his henchmen to arrest an innocent former president and you lot support that? This is much bigger than any president this is the future of the USA that biden is destroying.
Because most politicians are corrupt to the core. What the public knows is but the tip of the iceberg. Their only loyalty is to themselves and their desire to get re-elected under false pretenses and lies.
I've been wondering if there could be a *fifth* indictment apart from this one, the one in New York, and the two that are likely to come in Georgia and from the grand jury looking into January 6th. After all, to get the documents to Florida, they first had to be taken out of DC. Could Trump end up facing separate federal indictments in both venues?
That’s good question , I have to ask myself how many cases are out there ? All I know was , DC, NY and GA..in combination About six? I can’t confirm so complicated cases and all linked
@@tesslake6787- There are four that we know of: one in New York (the "Stormy" payments, for which he's already been indicted); the federal documents case (for which he's now indicted, too); the federal case over inciting Jan. 6 (indictment pending); and the Georgia case over the Raffensperger tapes (indictment pending). What I'm wondering is, could the documents case end up split into two venues.
@@racookster documents were found at maralogo which split up ..if my logic is correct, unless two incidents happened on different times? Ya got me thinking now ..
@@racookster I don't know. But it seems actually taking them is not what they are interested in as much as retaining them, hiding them, showing them to unauthorized people and lying about them. And all that occurred in Fla.
I don't understand why some of his "people" are surprised. I'm sure they will just send money. After all, it takes a big income to maintain his home/resort!
Trump will still get equal justice under the law even though he has done his worst to destroy our republic. That's what makes America great, again and again.
Thank God President Obama is a highly educated man....while brilliant and respectful of the USA CONSTITUTION THAT HE SWORE AN OATH TO UPHOLD.... unlike lying Twice Impeached Insurrectionist Donald J Trump who tried to OVERTHROW OUR COUNTRY. # Lock him up already.🙏🙏🙏🙏
DOJ: We hereby indict Donald Trump for multiple crimes he committed. TRUMP LAWYERS: We ask the court to move the trial to the JUVENILE courts. JUDGE AILEEN CANNON: Granted!
Clinton destroyed subpoenaed documents and had a private server in her home closet for foreign agents to browse. The FBI said at least 10 countries had access to Hillary’s sensitive information. A newly subpoenaed FBI document indicates that Vice President Joe Biden took bribes from China and Ukraine. Trump never did anything close.
We could say we have a page from his diary and make up what ever we want that is on it. Republicans will never ask to prove it came from his diary. They are gullible.
DO NOT DOWN PLAY THE SERIOUSNESS OF WHAT FORMER PRESIDENT TRUMP DID. GLAD YOU QUALIFIED YOUR RESPONSE. YES, THE AMERICAN PUBLIC NEEDS TO BE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT HIS ACTIONS WHILE IN AND OUT OF THE PRESIDENCY. OUR SAFETY AND SECURITY COULD BE IN JEOPARDY AND DANGER. WHAT FREEDOMS WE HAVE COULD BE VIOLATED , CENSORED AND COMPLETELY TAKEN AWAY.
CNN it is time for you to for accountability and to come clean. After Chris Licht is fired, it is time the person or the persons who hired Licht, has or have to go too.
