Trump docs indictment shows 'clearer example of criminality' than Mueller found: investigator

Andrew Weissmann, a senior member of special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation, talks with Alex Wagner about remarks by a former colleague quoted in the New York Times as saying the obstruction described in the Donald Trump classified documents indictment would be "a clearer example of criminality than what Mr. Mueller found" if it is proved.

Everyrhing he gets away with becomes a permission slip to produce the next further level of chaos, outrage and crime.

[HareToday]

Shouldn’t this be a serious lesson to the US, allowing anyone to consistently get away with criminal activities will never end well - in Trumps case democracy is the gamble on the table together with global credibility.

[diana-anthonyvaleta]

UNREDACT MUELLER REPORT ALREADY! We should all know what it really states by now

[SanjuanitaCruz]

Why not just return the files, as asked? Too full of himself.

[niclewis]

"Pretty undisciplined, doesn't like to read, and repeatedly tried to do illegal things"

- Rex Tillerson Trump appointed Secretary of State.

[LisaVD]

Lol, remember when Susan Collins claimed that he had learned his lesson?! 😂

[gm]

Why am I so Happy watching trump finally go down 😃 I have been waiting for years. Day and Night news clip after news clip.☕Cup after Cup ☕ I want to do the conviction dance so bad I'm starting to get excited

[charlesmartin]

"Obstruction junction whats your function?" 'Delaying justice for Trump and his minions.'

[iwbuiqr]

The man needs to be and must be arrested. This is clear evidence of intent to obstruct, lie and full knowledge of what trump had. Let this SOB rot in prison until his trial date.

[richardowens]

If there was ever anyone who literally deserved to have the entire book thrown at them it is Donald Trump!

[Sandi-kemi]

When a madman can’t control everything around him, he tries to destroy it. That’s what trump is doing to our country..

[loue-black]

The sooner this 'Orange Blob' is removed from the landscape, the better the US & the World will be 😡

[pfflyer]

We all remember the Mueller report, and his words " if trump didn't commit any crimes, we would have said so"!

[Felsenkeks]

I love seeing Andrew Weissman on all these shows - he's my absolute favourite correspondent- but I'm starting to worry whether he gets enough sleep 😅

[AndyM_YYY]

When Trump's own DoJ set up the Mueller Inquiry, the terms of reference they gave Mueller included a peculiar constraint: he was told he was NOT allowed to "follow the money".

[nonaweilding]

If anybody else did the things that Trump has done they would have been given a life sentence

[recidivistfighter]

Nothing severe will become of his behavior
And that’s messed up !!!

[hethm.]

Remember the smoke coming from his Manhattan building back in January 8th 2018? A long career of destroying evidences. Toilet flushing, eating notes, burning documents, etc.

[Chrenynkaya]

Did The New York Times actually call Trump’s crimes of obstruction “gamesmanship”? Christ.

[sorcereradventurer]

The sooner America can get use to the image of Trump in prison the better. He will get life and will do anything for a deal even SNITCH on sitting J6 Republicans. I am here for it. Vote Blue!!
