Jack Smith's cache of facts he hopes to debut in federal court would be an extravaganza that Trump hopes to hide. Veteran Watergate reporter Carl Bernstein was foretelling a political specter of what could transpire should the federal criminal election subversion trial were to go forward.. "Trump also knows that the narrative of what he has done is one of sedition," Bernstein explained. "He attempted a coup to keep the President of the United States, Joseph Biden, who was duly elected, from taking office. A coup such as we have never experienced. An act of sedition. There is a narrative to this case, that Donald Trump and those around him, do not want to see explored."
Bernstein didn't break down all the specifics that could turn the screws on former President Donald Trump. But he teased that special counsel Jack Smith has the goods on the 45th president regarding what he did (and perhaps didn't do) on Jan. 6, 2021, when a group of his faithful rioted at the Capitol Building in order to halt the certification of the presidential election.
It's the federal election subversion case being brought by Smith that Bernstein believes has Trump shaking in his boots. If Smith gets to raise the curtain and get over a dozen of Trump's former cabinet and aides to testify, including former Vice President Mike Pence and former Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, it could bring to the fore a narrative that might prove he committed a coup or sedition, according to Bernstein.
"Because if it is explored, if it is made public, if it is done tick-tock, one hour after the other, so that we see how he obstructed that election on January 6th — how he prepared in the months before to obstruct that election – we will get a picture of criminality of a president of the United States such as we have never seen in our history. Trump knows that. His lawyers know it."
