Fox News legal analyst Jonathan Turley made quite a startling observation as Fox host John Roberts couldn't quite figure out why Trump obsessively hoarded top secret and classified documents.
Fox News legal analyst Jonathan Turley made quite a startling observation as Fox host John Roberts couldn't quite figure out why Trump obsessively hoarded top secret and classified documents.
"I don't know Jonathan if you have any insight into this," Roberts said. "Why did Trump want to hang onto this stuff?"
"I'm baffled, " Turley replied.
"The president's a counter-puncher and he tends to shove back when shoved," Turley said. "And that is not necessarily the best inclination when you're dealing with classified documents."
"But obviously in this indictment, he comes across as sort of a Captain Queeg, that he is obsessed with keeping these documents," Turley said. "That's a dangerous inclination because he was dealing with documents that even if they weren't classified, were still subject to federal law in terms of mishandling."
During Trump's stint at the White House, he was allowed to act like a fascist dictator by his supporters in and out of Congress. The only laws he responded to were his narcissistic desires.
Trump carried on like Captain Queeg and his hunt for keys and strawberries.
