Prosecutor Who BEAT Trump on if Guardrails will Hold Mea Culpa
Nov 30, 2024 Mea Culpa with Michael Cohen
Today on Mea Culpa, I’m joined by Tristan Snell, former Assistant NY Attorney General, legal commentator, and author of *Taking Down Trump*, to discuss Trump’s unprecedented return to the presidency and its implications for the rule of law. We explore the fate of Trump’s legal troubles due to presidential immunity, which undermines public trust in the justice system.
Tristan unpacks Trump’s controversial cabinet picks, chosen for loyalty over qualifications, and how his authoritarian agenda threatens to destabilize government institutions. We also discuss Trump’s mass deportation plans, disregard for due process, and efforts to concentrate executive power, raising serious concerns about the erosion of democratic norms.
