SMITH CHARGES TRUMP WITH INSURRECTION, SEDITION, TERRORISM, AND NEVER USES THE WORDS - 8.2.23

POST-INDICTMENT TRUMP SPECIAL: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:43) SMITH MANAGES TO CHARGE TRUMP WITH A COUP, STOCHASTIC TERRORISM, SEDITION, AND ATTEMPTING TO FOMENT A CIVIL WAR - without ever using any of these weighted and difficult-to-prove phrases and charges. It is the genius of the charging document and indeed the case. It looks and reads like a set of Obstruction, Fraud, and Civil Rights charges. In fact it will go into history as the fiercest damnation of the worst criminal in American history B-Block (21:51) YOU ARE NUMBER SIX: It can't all be gloom and doom. We have been unintentionally given a Wordle-like game to play. Let's call it "Trumple." There are six unidentified, unindicted co-conspirators in the case. Four are easily recognized: Rudy, John Eastman, Jeffrey Clark, and Sidney Powell. The fifth is a little tougher: Kenneth Cheseboro. But who is number six? Experts, sources and crowd-votes disagree. But I think I've found him. LET'S PLAY TRUMPLE. C-Block (32:30) TRUMP'S DEFENSE? THIS WAS JUST FREE SPEECH. He's got a problem here. The judge assigned the case has heard countless January 6 trials and has already dismissed the 1st Amendment as a defense, and has mocked the loyalty of the seditionists to Trump. But, we get to hear Rudy cry about Trump. And you get to hear me guarantee you that eventually, Rudy will give him up. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
