Former Trump aide and chief of staff at the Department of Homeland Security Miles Taylor joins Alex Witt to discuss the dangers of another Trump term, the 14th Amendment clause, and Trump telling conservative media personality Glenn Beck that he would prosecute his political enemies if elected president again. "Donald Trump actually did have a vision while I was in the administration to use the terrorist prison at Guantanamo Bay to house political prisoners,” Taylor says. “The only reason he didn’t start sending people to Guantanamo is that he was convinced it would be too expensive and the facility couldn't house the number of people he wanted to send there.That was the mindset of the man when he was president of the United States.”
He’s 100% committed to getting the Presidency to extricate himself from his situation, and using that office to keep himself out of the reach of justice.
Attempted by Julius Caesar, Napoleon, and Capt’n Jack Sparrow.
Trump is welcome to the club then. He’s got his own line of steaks, just like Caesar has his salad, Napoleon has his ice cream, and the captain has his cereal.
Napoleon ice cream now with more grapeshot!
😆
The crazy part is not that he wants to do that … there are probably countless wannabe politicians that have that as a motivation.
The crazy part is that he has a following and an actual chance that he could do it.
The insane part of current US politics is not Trump … the crazy part is this current culture of political leaders and financiers who are piling their money behind some nut job and generating this following of people that actually believe it all.
Yes, I think the problem is the millions that will vote for the idiot
