Chris Matthews Actually Thinks Trump’s Tweets Will Lead To His Impeachment On Thursday, MSNBC’s Hardball host Chris Matthews attempted to push the narrative that President Trump is guilty of obstruction of justice in the Mueller probe and that based off his tweets; he could be removed from office, Newsbusters reported.
“Obstruction in plain sight…Could Donald Trump’s tweeting cost him his presidency? Could Robert Mueller find that Trump’s relentless threatening and bullying of possible witnesses constitute obstruction of justice? Does the fact that Trump does so so outrageously in broad daylight constitute any defense? Is this all Trump’s lawyer has to defend him? That he obstructs in plain sight,” Matthews declared.

Matthews explained that his excitement had to do with a New York Times piece which he interpreted as having revealed that “Robert Mueller’s team is investigating numerous incidents that occurred privately” but also “actions that the president has taken in plain sight that could bolster a potential obstruction case” such as his daily tweets.
Speaking to Peter Baker from the New York Times, Matthews hailed the new reporting as “fascinating because it points out that just cause you do something in public doesn’t make it’s legal or make you innocent” and cited killing someone in public as still being murder.
“It’s no wonder that Giuliani says the President refuses to be questioned by the Special Counsel about obstruction of justice. It’s the one area where his actions are so well-known they require little detective work. Tweeting may be Trump’s impulsive choice of weapon. That doesn’t exempt him from the law,” Matthews concluded.
Poster Comment:
Trump is driving Presidential historians nuts since he balls up pieces of paper and throws them in the trash. They have to pull everything out and restore it so it can be put in Presidential archives.
