CNN: 'Hear The Trump Statement One Source Told Maggie Haberman Was a "Confession"'

Source:CNN- New York Times national reporter Maggie Haberman.

"CNN's Anderson Cooper speaks with New York Times reporter and CNN senior political analyst Maggie Haberman after former President Donald Trump gave multiple television interviews." 

From CNN

I said back in 2017 (and I just wish I had written this down and made it public) that Donald Trump picked the wrong country to run for President and be its head of state. Why? Because our governmental system that's built around checks and balances, accountability, the rule of law, is not suited for someone of Donald Trump's mindset and personality. He believes he can do whatever he wants, whenever he wants to, that rules and laws that apply to everyone else, don't apply to him. 

I make this point because it's obvious that just in the first 2 years of the Trump presidency, how about the 1st year, when he didn't have a Democratic House of Representatives that he had to do deal with, when he had a Republican Congress (House & Senate) that he wanted to use the Federal Government to go after and investigate his political opponents, like Hillary Clinton, as well as the media that reporter negative stories about him. 

Within the 1st month of the Trump presidency, he's already calling for NBC News's license to be repealed by the Federal Communication Commission, because he didn't like a story that they reported about his administration and he wanted people in his own White House arrested for leaking negative stories about him as well. 

I have no doubt that if Donald J. Trump becomes President of the United States (and our endless, national nightmare reappears) that he'll want to use the government to go after the people who investigated him, go after anyone who might present to his presidency politically, as well as pardon himself for everything that he's involved in and currently being prosecuted for, as well as all of his allies that are also being prosecuted. 

The question is will Mr. Trump be able to. He wasn't when he was President the 1st time because the Department of Justice, including his own Attorney General told him that they can't go after people simply because President Trump doesn't like them and sees them as threats to him. 

I don't want Donald Trump anywhere near government office ever again, for reasons I've already laid out. But I don't think we know for sure that even if he wanted to use the government to completely clear himself of everything and be able to operate above the law, as well as go after everyone that he sees as political threats to him, people who threaten his own freedom, will he even be able to do that, or will our system of checks and balances and rule of law, once again serve as the check against him. I don't want to take that risk. 

Hopefully a year from now, there's so much evidence against him in court, that no Independent in their right mind would ever even consider voting for him again, for anything, and every Democrat alive gets out and votes for the Democratic nominee for President, if for no other reason, that they see Donald Trump as the true threat to American democracy and freedom that he represents.
