Kaitlan Collins pushes back on Trump attorney's 'brazen' argument over presidential act

CNN’s Kaitlan Collins challenges Will Scharf, one of former president Donald Trump’s attorneys in his immunity case before the Supreme Court, about using hypothetical scenarios in defense of arguing for total presidential immunity. #CNN #News

I don't think the founding fathers could anticipate the lack of shame future politicians exhibit today.

[@voteformethanks5307]

yes shame of todays politicians cannot be denied - but the founding father's were no one to judge, lets just name a few examples of their morals 1- G- WASHINGTON keep the teeth of his slaves around his neckeneckbat his slaves and did not free any slaves in his life 2- Adams when president made anyone writing anything not true about him or his government illegal, which anyone writing anything the least critical about him was charged as sedition 3 Jefferson - The Civil war was used by him to make him Richer as he was a smuggler whos illegal smuggling business exploded in size and profit because of the war 4- John hancock - tax cheat, and all round crook you mean those people who's morals and actions were horrid LOL

Why does it matter if an act is a presidential or private act? If the intention of any act is criminal, then it should be chargeable.

[@thatoneguy3284]

I dont agree with the point of Trumps attorneys argument but ill say, generally, if any act could be chargable, multiple presidents would go to jail. Especially ones who were president during wartime and all of the actions done then. And I think thats the overall point. There are a lot of grey areas in being president and what is lawful and/or moral dont always coincide with what "needs" to be done. This would mean Presidents could (and probably would by opposing parties) be charged for a number of crimes the second they leave office.

[@WaferBrik]

@@thatoneguy3284 Presidents haven't been dragged before the courts as a result of their leadership during wars, that's nonsense. And other presidents haven't been charged with crimes upon leaving office. This whole deal has been brought about because Trump has committed criminal acts and doesn't want to have to pay for it. He's the only president to demand absolute immunity. Ask yourself why. It's obvious.

[@Daniel-pm7pr]

You think a president should be charged with murder for killing bin laden? That's why it matters. Presidents do kill ppl, they do break law in order to perform certain duties to protect your country. There's a difference between killing bin laden or alike who commit terrorism in your country, and killing biden (your opponent) for simply personal gain.

Guys like this shouldn't have screen time. I suspected this could happen when Kaitlin in one of her appearances earlier today said something along the lines of "Trump lawyers are sharp today". Journalism these days is just about making money being famous

[@stephenanning7849]

Well done Kaitlan.

[@bgorg1]

Scharf is basically saying the indictment should be rewritten in order for this to go to a trial.

[@myopinion8761]

Kaitlan sure mopped the floor with this Bozo's arguments. She made him eat a little humble pie. Bravo Kaitlan!

[@DavidTa2]

"Id have to look at the indictment more closely" 😂😂😂 Its been scoured through I am sure.

[@Pretty_Fly_on_a_White_Guy]

He seems like he’d get along well w another of 45’s lackeys, -Joseph Goebells- Stephen Miller.

[@juniorkawai6131]

Stephen Miller's evil twin.

[@chrisper7527]

I’d like to know where did this crazy man get his law degree?🤔🤔🤔🤔

[@josephm7606]

“Well Rutherford B. Hayes (a Republican president) got away with “alternate electors” so why can’t Trump expand on that idea?” Appalling. Absolutely terrifying arguments. We can’t believe the Supreme Court is even entertaining this insane case.

[@ruthannwatkins3914]

Good lord this guy's smile is beyond creepy , his handler should tell him never to do this again , yikes .

[@voteformethanks5307]

lol coming from a person who prob seen biden sniff kids hair

[@GDTBATH]

This fellow is one of the most articulate attorneys to represent Donnie. That said, he's just another Trump lawyer who is on the wrong side of history.

[@chrispythegull]

Yeah, from a technical standpoint that lawyer performed a masterclass. He was so good he almost had me saying ok, give the orange fuckface immunity. Almost.

[@voteformethanks5307]

if a president really believed the election was won on fraud its the duty to oppose it

[@mdmurray17]

It's official if its official...? Give me a break. He is pathetic .

[@dredre2409]

Great job Kaitlan!! You were well prepared for this interview. These lawyers are unbelievable!

[@tacobreather]

Extreme position!! Absolutely shameful!!

[@JimiCeleste]

He is brave going up against Kaitlan. She is the best . . .

[@user-ed2qk6fv1q]

the man replied well agaist the prepared se;f-showing questions

[@gasovensforqcult]

No. Kaitlan, just like most MSM talking heads allows way too many lies to be broadcast without challenge. Rewatch this segment and count how many times she let him talk all over her withour a rebuttal challenge to the lies and gaslighting. To be fair, Tapper and others, except maybe Erin, miss opportunities or let lies slide by without challenge too, but maybe becasue the volume of lies can't be addressed in a five minute segment?

[@XX-qd6ke]

"We must especially beware of that small group of selfish men who would clip the wings of the American eagle in order to feather their own nests...

[@1247.cccccc]

She is the lady Lemon. Clueless and strident, like a bratty jerk.

[@voteformethanks5307]

LOL you mean after her town-hall with trump? which even lefties admitted she allowed him to walk over her

[@steve20118]

Listening to this lawyer made me throw up in my mouth a little.

[@andrewnichol5387]

She was Great ! Finally, a reporter that didn't let them get away with anything he was saying. Excellent!

[@warrinbang1191]

No incumbent candidate for President should be able to exert any executive powers when it comes to determining the election results. For this would give them an unfair advantage.

[@migluciano]

God have mercy o this word salad! Criminality only applies to the powerless, not to the mighty corrupt? What a shame!

[@michaelburgess6556]

Very well done, Kaitlan 👍 👏

[@pegasusted2504]

No, the crutial distinction isn't whatever crap you said. The distinction comes from there should be no "official" acts that are at the same time criminal offences. Isn't the president supposed to make sure the laws of the land are faithfully followed or protected in some way? and as for the bollocks chump says and others, "if this happens then no president would be safe" and "the president can not do his/her job properly without full immunity" etc, is so fucking stupid I can't believe they said such. Only presidents who commit crimes in office would be prosecuted otherwise there would be no call for prosecution.

[@1alb]

This lawyer talks like a robot, sans the intelligence.

[@1247.cccccc]

He is talking to a brainless bot, how else to address a CNN clown?

[@merrygangemi]

Why do they keep referencing the 19th Century?? 1876??? Go Kaitlan!!!!

[@TheUnderground007]

That Part

[@gettingannoyedquick]

So they can ignore the fact that people already plead guilty to the fake elector scheme.

[@marvinsmith2116]

Hawaii hadn’t concluded its count so it sent two sets so they would be available on Washington when the count was concluded. One was automatically tossed. These ‘little lies’ throw everything out from this liar.

[@bacysystemssolutions6871]

Good God. This is guy is a lawyer? This guy is running for Governor? When China is growing, AMERICA is completely embarassing itself

[@pamtuffield9385]

When they start quoting things that happened 150 years ago you know they are desperately clutching at straws.

[@robbieesposito3137]

Not just that, but he completely mischaracterized the times that alternate slates of electors were used in the past. In those cases it wasn't a secret, and they were only going to be used if their pending challenges succeeded. In Trump's case, the challenges had already failed, and the electors were either tricked or they were liars.

[@yeshetertso5702]

And she looks so sweet, and pretty, too! And Just now saw Kaitlan bullriding Barr. Wow, that was impressive. Sadly, it appears that bar has no integrity or self-respect.

[@Trexset0323]

When he says I have to look at the indictment more closely he automatically relinquished and incredibility he thought he had

[@dmann1115]

Yup!!

[@rcox54321]

This guy, like most defense attorneys, is FOS.

[@yvonneburnett3315]

You can say that again

[@hollyspeaks3259]

He used his OFFICIAL power & acts to further his PRIVATE & personal power

[@connorgunning6228]

You can see him just digging through his brain for spicy words like "check of constitution" "crippling government" "scope of immunity" to make himself sounds important and collins was just making him look stupid for defending indefensible positions.

[@DavidJ222]

Trump is currently working on a new book, in the spirt of Mein Kampf (My Struggle). The title of Trump's book will be called "My Tremendous Struggle - more tremendous than yours'" 🤣

[@gandydancer823]

He have a ghost writer just plagiarizing Mein Kampf

[@drzaius1121]

Why was biden pro segregation while Trump wasn't? biden cultists can't answer this.

[@dickjones8119]

very lame get new material 😛

[@NeilD_Videos]

The sequel will be "My Biglier Struggle - The Most Conflicted Conflict Ever Seen"

[@ericlaplante1376]

Aahh. Isn’t he a Corrupt little butterfly…

[@voteformethanks5307]

corrupt to Dems = someone i disagree with

[@henrikmadsen6446]

You got tot respect Kaitlan Collins. Well done. A shame politicians avoid this kind of interview in USA.

[@davecunningham7291]

Will Scharf lying like CRAZY in this interview. Wow

[@voteformethanks5307]

i guess listing just 2 lies he said is to much? someones opinions that differs from urs dose not equal lies

[@RobertEskew]

Tough interview, Kaitlan. You did a great job.
