'Words used against him': Trump's latest 'confusing' reply reportedly hurts him in court

Donald Trump's recent reply to a reporter's question is sure to end up hurting the President in court, according to another reporter on Saturday.

A MSNBC reporter flagged a "confusing" response from Trump, who was asked about why he signed a controversial immigration order in the dead of night but replied by saying someone else handled it. The White House has said Trump was talking about the law on which is order was based, which was signed hundreds of years ago, but MSNBC panelists were skeptical.

The host of the show simply responded, "C'mon."

Shelby Talcott, White House correspondent for Semafor, said, "This could be really tough for him" because the open question is sure to "become involved in that legal battle."

The response generally "muddies the waters" for Trump, according to Talcott.

"Trump's words are going to be used against him here," she added.
