Jen Psaki on Letitia James: Trump Is ‘Losing His Power’ to Win Legal Cases

‘This has been one of Trump’s stated objectives, to go after his enemies’

RUSH EXCERPT:
PSAKI: "And you are the lawyer, not me. But it is not a conviction. A grand jury indicting this is just again, what do they say, a ham sandwich? They could indict a ham sandwich often in these grand juries. You know, I think that because this has been one of Trump’s stated objectives, to go after his enemies, to have people working for him go after his enemies, it seems. One, it’s it’s an obsession and it seems very vindictive, which is, of course a legal term too. But it is a failure. Again, it is a loss of power in some ways. And if you look at the big scope of things, he’s losing his power and his ability to win on legal cases. We’re seeing that over and over again. Remember today also, kilmer abrego Garcia is also should be being released at this point. That’s a case he’s been also obsessed with in the courts. And at the same time, he’s losing his political power. These are kind of two of the levers that he always felt. He was all powerful on that he had was teflon on. And I think if you’re looking at it from just the perspective of what does it mean for him and his ability to assert power or exert power, it’s all challenging it in one on one big pull together, in my view."
