At first, i wasnt sure. But i have come to believe that he knew well he had lost the election. And now, what i think is important is the government assumed the burden of proving that. The government, in the indictment, takes the position that he had actual knowledge that he had lost the election and the election wasnt stolen through fraud. They have to prove that beyond a reasonable doubt. Thats a high bar. That leads me to believe that were only seeing the tip of the iceberg. You believe jack smith has more . I believe he has a lot more. Lets bring in Michael Cohen, Donald Trumps former fixer and attorney. Hes a principal of crisis. Hes the author of the New York Times best seller, revenge how donald trump weaponized the Department Of Justice against his critics. Michael, great to have you here tonight. You heard the former Attorney General, he believes that donald trump knew he lost the election. And what do you think about that being a defense, that his attorneys are going to say, h
talk about, for example, the weaponization of the justice department, that donald trump told him to do, including, like what my book is about. how they, meaning bill barr, donald trump, et cetera, weaponized the justice department to go against a critic because i refuse to waive my first amendment constitutional right. it s interesting you say that. he did talk about donald trump weaponizing the doj tonight with kaitlan collins. and what bill barr said was, there s no question he believes these understand tugs instituti used to go after his enemies. that s the whole premise of my book. however, who did he use to ef effect the goal? bill barr. before bill barr welcomes himself back into polite society, he needs to own what he did. he needs to be accountable for his actions, the same way i did, when i testified in front of the house overnight committee. i can understand why you have strong feelings about him.
