George Conway: Trump Is ‘Without a Doubt’ in More Legal Trouble Following Yesterday’s Jan. 6 Committee Hearing

‘This all reeks of criminality’

EXCERPT:

CONWAY: "Yes, absolutely, without a doubt. I mean, this all reeks of criminality. And Bob Woodward put his nose right on it. You talked about Section 371 of the criminal code, which forbids frauds against the United States, and this was — it showed deceit. It showed an intent to deceive, to use deceit to impair a function of the — lawful function of the United States government, by the fact that Trump was told repeatedly that the legal theory on which he thought he could get Vice President Pence to defraud electoral votes was completely bogus. But let me just take a step back here. This isn’t the only way you can prove Donald Trump’s criminal intent in that regard. On Monday, we had the hearing where it was shown that Trump was repeatedly told that all of his electoral fraud claims, the facts on the ground, were false. He was told repeatedly that he lost. He was told repeatedly that, no, the Dominion thing is bullsh*t,  as Bill Barr said. He was told that by multiple people, he lost 60 lawsuits, he had no reason to believe that factually he had won that election, that he had won those contesting states. Now, yesterday, we saw that he knew, had to have known, that the legal theory by which he could get this undone, get these certifications — certified electoral votes undone was also false.”
