he s accused of hiding millions of dollars in overseas income and offshore accounts. prosecutors describing what they call his extravagant lifestyle with bank accounts in three countries, seven homes, and lavish spending on clothes and jewelry including a $21,000 watch and a $15,000 ostrich skin jacket. so it is no surprise that sources say the white house has adopted a strategy of distancing the president from manafort while keeping a close eye on the trial behind the scenes. and it s no coincidence that president trump tweeted his new favorite defense this morning that collusion is not a crime
is going to come down to a political battle, that the president may never be charged with a crime. may never we may never get to that point. it will be politics. and they re campaigning. i sort of laughed at when i heard rudy giuliani say what he said. if the president committed a crime, it s not a crime. it s insane, but this is something that the president has said, and nixon actually promoted this idea that if the president does you can t break a law. by definition it s legal because he s the government. how long have you known trump? three or four years and i studied him for longer than that. so if he is if someone in his family is indicted, how do you think he ll react? i think it depends who it is.
