Speaking on MSNBC, former U.S. District Attorney for Eastern Michigan Barbara McQuade commented on the deepening legal problem for mentally unstable seditionist Donald "Loser" Trump over his efforts to overturn the 2020 election through a willing lackey, Jeffrey Clark:
"''So President Trump was urging the leadership of the justice department like Jeffrey Rosen and his deputy Clark, and they wouldn't play ball. Donald Trump did find a willing participant in the assistant attorney general for the Civil Division, Jeffrey Clark, and the public reporting is that Clark met privately with President Trump; completely forbidden under the department policies. communications are to be done in a formal way.
The idea that the president is talking with an underling, planning a strategy is, alone, is highly irregular. Then we have seen this letter he drafted for the signature of the acting attorney general to send out to all the states, including Georgia, where the elections were close. This is so far out of the lane of the Justice Department -- providing legal advice to states about how they could engineer a different result in their state.
He [Clark] laid out that road map for them. So I think Jeffrey Clark and anyone else involved should be concerned with conspiracy charges.'" (our emphasis_
The "anyone else involved" would be Trump and whomever else he enlisted in his attempted steal of the election by negating millions of Biden votes. The Senate Judiciary Committee has chosen this seditionist scandal to bore into, and former Acting Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen and former Deputy Attorney General Richard Donoghue need to make sure that their sworn testimony is complete and accurate.
