Turns out Jack Smith has had a smoking gun recording of Donald Trump all along, and now Trump is going down for espionage
It turns out Special Counsel Jack Smith has built his case around a tape of Trump admitting he took intel about Iran, admitting it was classified, admitting he never declassified it, and discussing its contents with people who don’t have clearances. That’s an espionage conviction, beyond reasonable doubt.
This is now confirmed today by both the New York Times and CNN. This recording will make it impossible for Trump to try to mount even the narrowest defense at trial. Legal experts are now saying that this means Trump will be indicted for espionage and not merely obstruction, and I agree. It’s becoming rather obvious at this point.
You could say that Trump’s life is now over, but really, Trump’s life has been over since the minute Jack Smith uncovered that recording. He’s had it all along. He’s built his case around it. And there’s no possible way for Trump to avoid conviction.
