Heilemann: Trump Repeatedly ‘Tries to Run Rough-Shod’ over His Constitutional Limits

He ‘also tends to do another thing what we’ve seen is pit the intelligence agencies against each other’

RUSH EXCERPT:

MATTHEWS: "It’s good Jared doesn’t have all of these jobs."
HEILEMANN: "In a family business, the pot calls the shots. You say what gets done. You go make it, so. The U.S. Government is not like that. One of the things we’re learning in addition to the fact that there’s this now clearer prema fascia case that’s being built around obstruction of justice, the obstruction of justice questions are coming into sharp relief as a focus of what director of Mueller was going to have to look at. You’ve also got this incredible revelation day after day of how little Donald Trump understands about the basic of under pinnings of what the government is suppose to work and what the constitutional limits are under the presidency. He tries to run rough shot over them time and time again and also tends to do another thing what we’ve seen is pit the intelligence agencies against each other. As someone who spent a lot of December, you’ll recall, saying things like the — comparing the intelligence community to Nazis, he has no goodwill there. In addition to the fact they probably wouldn’t do it any way. He built up bad will and he’s trying to use them against each other to under mine Jim Comey."
