'This is a huge deal': Legal expert explains how judge finally nailed Trump

Raw Story  

A legal expert explained why an appeals court ruling forcing Donald Trump's lawyer to turn over evidence is a "huge deal" for prosecutors. U.S. District Judge Beryl Howell directed Trump lawyer Evan Corcoran to produce documents in a case involving classified documents stored at Mar-a-Lago, and former federal prosecutor Andrew Weissmann told MSNBC's "Morning Joe" that was a damaging blow to the ex-president. "The reporting is that Mr. Corcoran is going to say, 'It wasn't me, I wrote this, but I was told what to put in there by my client,' meaning Donald Trump," Weissmann said. This could be a critical difference as to why the Department treats Donald Trump differently than the other two cases."
