Mike Schmidt, New York Times Investigative Reporter joins Nicolle Wallace on Deadline White House to discuss the track record of Donald Trump using the presidency to launch attacks and investigations of his political enemies like James Comey, Hillary Clinton, Andy McCabe and others and how his own team spent much of their time in the Oval Office...
Somehow, special counsel Jack Smith and Donald Trump are arguing over how long a court filing can be. But a deeper look into Trump’s opposition to Smith’s bid to file an “oversized” immunity motion suggests that the defense’s apparent strategy is to minimize the airing of damaging claims against the Republican presidential nominee as he runs for office.
But on Monday, Trump’s lawyers formally objected to the arguably administrative request, calling Smith’s desired forthcoming filing a “180-page false hit piece.” Casting the prosecution’s plea for more pages as a grave matter, they say the filing would “violate the Presidential immunity doctrine,” “taint the integrity of these proceedings,” “be tantamount to a premature and improper Special Counsel report” and would even risk influencing the 2024 election.
