'It's like Donald Trump took a page out of the playbook, you know, 'Conspiracy to Obstruct Justice for Dummies,'' Kirschner said. 'And he followed that manual.'
Ex-President Donald Trump speaks at a rally in Warren, Michigan, on October 1, 2022. Former federal prosecutor Glenn Kirschner on Friday said Trump"is done" after the unsealing of an indictment charging him with 37 federal felony counts.
"He's been incessantly telling us that he declassified everything, either with his mind or automatically when he removed it from the White House," said Kirschner."Here he is on an audio recording saying, 'Well, I could have declassified it when I was president, but I didn't and now I can't.'" Kirschner said that the"strongest witnesses" at Trump's trial would be his own attorneys. The indictment alleges that the former president and his aide Walt Nauta, who was also indicted on Friday, deliberately hid boxes of documents from Trump's lawyers.
"[Trump] will be convicted in large part on the testimony of his own attorneys," said Kirschner."The obstruction of justice and the conspiracy to obstruct by hiding these boxes, these documents ... is so transparent, and so brazen, and so easily proved, and so criminal and clumsy.
"Please sit down and read this ... document, this indictment, because it leaves no room for dispute," he said."Anybody who is willing to engage in a fact-based analysis and reach a conclusion about whether Donald Trump committed grave crimes against the United States will be persuaded.
