Trump Predicts “Bedlam” If He Loses Immunity Appeal

Mediaite reports:

Following the hearing — at which his attorney argued that a president could order Seal Team Six to assassinate a political rival and not face prosecution unless he were impeached and convicted first — Trump and attorney John Lauro spoke to reporters for about ten minutes.

Trump’s remarks were so shot-through with falsehoods that CNN and MSNBC dumped out of the coverage, and included triumphant claims and a warning that if he were to lose the appeal “It will be bedlam in the country.” Trump concluded by telling reporters he thought he and his defense team had “a very good day.”

Read the full article. As he walked out, Trump ignored this shouted question: “You just used the word bedlam. Will you tell your supporters now, no matter what, no violence?”

Former President Trump: “I think they feel this is the way they’re going to try and win and that’s not the way it goes. It’ll be bedlam in the country. It’s a very bad thing. It’s a very bad precedent. It’s the opening of a Pandora’s Box…” pic.twitter.com/fyYqul1CPC
