What the president did today -- lying, dishonoring the Constitution, disdaining American justice by calling it a joke and a laughingstock, attacking due process by saying we need quicker, stronger results as if our American courts were not good enough.
Eisen criticizes President Trump's remarks about the U.S. justice system and due process in relation to terrorism.

I urge the Committee, with all respect, to focus on the most imminent threat of that weaponization now facing us as a Nation: Donald Trump's record of weaponizing the government and his promises to double down should he return to power.
It's an abuse of the public interest for private gain that is very like the pattern in the White House.
What he has done is reprehensible, unlawful, an insult to the Constitution, and an insult to the idea of America.
The former President has even admitted he will be a dictator if he returns to the presidency.
