Donny Deutsch: ‘Donald Trump Knows the Noose Is Tightening’

‘I think Donald Trump lives in his own universe and does not understand that the American people are not stupid and they can see through this’

EXCERPT:

DEUTSCH: “Here’s the ad, and you laid it out. I would tomorrow find guys as credible as Clint, guys who are not in the F.B.I. any more or in the DOJ, guys who devoted their lives to this country, and I'd have about ten guys in an ad standing forward and going, 'Look, we’ve given our lives for our country. This president would and does do anything to make us less safe. Going forward, are you going to bet on people that keep this country safe, the men and women who have lost their lives and dedicated their lives in the F.B.I. or a reality TV guy?' I mean, that's the choice you put in front of the American people. This is so flawed in that Carter Page has been in its sights since 2013. This is all about let’s whack Rod Rosenstein. Donald Trump knows the noose is tightening and he knows he cannot directly go after Mueller and that the only on between him and Mueller is Rosenstein. This is what this is about. I think Donald Trump lives in his own universe and does not understand that the American people are not stupid and they can see through this. And I do think this is one more instance also where if I am a president, the last people I want to set up a war, a literal war with, is the Department of Justice and the intelligence community. And this is a declaration of war.”
