Lady Justice has 'understanding of karma and a sense of humor': former GOP congressman on Trump's woes
MSNBC host Nicolle Wallace played several clips of Donald Trump attacking former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during the 2016 presidential campaign. Among his pledges was the promise that things would be different under his administration when it comes to classified documents — a reference to Clinton’s use of a private email server that housed government communications
"In my administration, I'm going to enforce all laws concerning the protection of classified information. No one will be above the law," Trump said Aug. 2016.
By Sept. 6, 2016, Trump was saying: "We can't have someone in the Oval Office who doesn't understand the meaning of the word confidential or classified."
"I have a high bar for amplifying anything he ever said, but in this instance, it blows out of the water any claim he seeks to make in the future about 'I'm not understanding the classification process.' He understands it better than most," said Wallace.
Former Rep. David Jolly (R-FL) agreed. "Lady Justice is showing us she has an understanding of karma and a sense of humor as well this week," he said.
"You could not write the projection that Donald Trump was engaged in, then Secretary Clinton, to now be facing his own loss of liberty about what exactly he accused her of. I think Donald Trump knows that and understands that. I think Donald Trump knows that his wisest strategy is not to win this case in the southern district of Florida but to win the presidency. And that is why you're seeing this two-tiered strategy. Attorneys are left with a client who continues to lie to himself and misrepresent. But it's a political strategy that he sees as working."
