NY v. Trump ‘opens the door’ for any president to get charged in the future: John Yoo
Former Deputy Assistant Attorney General John Yoo joins ‘America’s Newsroom’ to discuss the future implications of having a ‘flimsy’ case against the former president.
"The very weakness and the flaws in this case open up the door for any DA in the future to sue presidents on the flimsiest of charges," Yoo said. "If you're going to prosecute a president, it has to be for something serious, dangerous to the national interest, and all the witnesses and the law ought to be air tight."
Yoo argued that in the current NY v. Trump trial, observers still are unsure of what law Trump has broken.
"This case, convict or acquit, open the door to all kinds of harassment of future presidents… which makes all of us worse off," Yoo said.
