Donald Trump Is ‘Like a One-Man Crime Wave’
On MSNBC’s “The Briefing” Friday, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) said President Donald Trump was “like a crime wave run by one man.”
Raskin said, “They killed the Epstein investigation when they took over the Justice Department when it came back to Washington. The first thing they did was call in all the files and all the investigations, and they said it was over. There was nothing left to see there, and that’s what they all testified to. Kash Patel came before the Judiciary Committee and said, yes, they found nothing, nothing to see there. and that’s their line Now all of a sudden he’s calling to reopen the Justice Department’s investigation as a form of distraction and diversion from the fact that he’s so obviously at the center of it.
He added: “He seems to believe that criminal investigation and prosecution in America is a partisan game. In other words, it’s not really about finding out what crimes were committed within this billion-dollar global child sex abuse and trafficking ring. It’s about going after this person or that person. If it leads to Democrats, by all means go after them. But if it leads to Republicans, go after them too. But he really thinks that American democracy is about taking turns prosecuting the other side. That’s just absurd and ridiculous. It’s just Donald Trump who is like a lone crime wave who wants the world to believe that this is how the American criminal justice system works.”
