A Newsmax legal panel weighed in today on the new Trump charges brought by the Special Counsel Jack Smith and they were not optimistic about his chances in court of getting past this in the classified documents case.

One guest said “The saying ‘the cover-up is worse than the crime’ might apply here.”

Watch below:

One guest is a former FBI agent and the other is a criminal defense attorney. The attorney is the one who made the comment about the cover up, assuming it’s true he added. He said if Trump was trying to cover something up, then it tells him there must be something there in the surveillance video that’s damning to the former president.

The former FBI agent starts by pointing out how unfair this prosecution is in light of how the Biden family seems to be getting away with a lot. However, he notes, Trump has brought a lot of this on himself foolishly. He said it was avoidable and that Trump could have cooperated more early on.

Both guests noted how adding these lower level employees to the case will give them more leverage over Trump and possibly get them to turn on Trump, which is certainly not good.
