How serious is this becoming for the administration in your estimation?” Smith asked.
“Very serious, I think this is a very bad week for the President if you combine it with what else we learned — that his two private lawyers sat in a restaurant in Washington D.C. and discussed openly among them the defects in their case. Unknowing to them within earshot was a reporter for The New York Times,” Napolitano continued. “The New York Times printed it as a front-page story, none of it has been denied.”
“So Bob Mueller, the special counsel, now knows the defects in the president’s defenses because his lawyers were blabbing about it in the public restaurant,” Judge Napolitano concluded.
“There’ve been no denials of this and it’s very bad,” Judge Napolitano concluded. “It shows that there’s a clash of the personal lawyers representing Trump as a private person and White House legal counsel representing the presidency.
“Who is resolving those disputes?” Judge Napolitano asked rhetorically. “General Kelly and he’s not a lawyer.”
