Ex-Trump Lawyer Warned Him About Legal Risk Of Keeping Documents: NYT
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING A former lawyer for Donald Trump warned the ex-president late last year that harboring government documents at home could put him in legal jeopardy, sources told The New York Times in a report published Monday. It is not clear whether Herschmann, who did not work for Trump at the time of the reported conversation, had knowledge of the contents of the documents in the former president’s possession, according to the Times. A judge Trump appointed while president recently granted his request for a special master to vet the documents, a small legal victory for the former president. More recently, he dismissed Trump allies’ claims of election fraud and their efforts to overturn the results as “nuts.” Herschmann declined to comment to the Times.
