It's common sense, I cannot make it any clearer than this. [View all]

If an ex-presidents own former White House counsel informed the president what he is about to do is illegal and the ex-president did it anyway. That ex-president is Fucked!

Trumps own WH counsel and others told Trump and Eastman what they were planning is illegal. Trumps WH counsel already testified that Eastman admitted during a White House meeting where Trump was present his plan was illegal.

If Trumps former WH counsel and others are testifying to this in front of a Grand Jury. Game over.
