Trump could be “destroyed on cross-examination” if he used that argument, the prosecutor within the Watergate scandal that took down President Richard Nixon stated on MSNBC’s “The Beat.”
It might best paintings if Trump “was once doing one thing presidential, one thing inside his activity description” when he did what he’s speculated to have completed, stated Wine-Banks.
However “it was once his activity as a candidate, and candidate is a special factor,” she added. Trump can’t declare he was once “performing as president when he was once seeking to take down the election.”
“That could be a query of indisputable fact that must be made up our minds,” she stated. “The jury will say, ‘Sure, he was once seeking to take it down.’ He’s pronouncing, ‘No I wasn’t, I used to be attempting to give protection to election integrity.’ There is not any proof that helps that and if he testifies that, he’s going to be destroyed on cross-examination.”
