Andrew Weissmann: ‘Our legal system has not held well holding an ex-President accountable’

Andrew Weissmann, former top prosecutor for the Justice Department and Rev. Al Sharpton host of “Politics Nation” on MSNBC join Nicolle Wallace on Deadline White House to discuss the challenges that the American legal system has been put through in the last four years to hold Donald Trump accountable, and how despite the conviction in the NY hush money trial, so much damage has been done to American’s trust in the rule of law.

    I can’t honestly remember what Trump case it was, maybe the most recent Criminal one. But anyway I had to watch MSNBC’s take on the outcome. Who was there as an expert advisor? Mr Andrew Weissman. But poor man was on duty from the 5:00 o’clock bulletin with Nichole Wallis, right after midnight with Stephanie Rule, by then his eyes were bloodshot and watery, but he remained on fire with his advice. I totally admire this man.

Finding out everyone who was involved in the crimes takes time. So does organizing it in a court room presentable way. There is a legal process that has to be followed or the criminals end up getting off on technicalities. None of us want that.

    Single district court judges have the power to halt actions of the federal government across the entire country. And because they have that power, and because the judges themselves have varying and widely known predilections and judicial philosophies, plaintiffs can place their complaints before a judge most likely to give them the outcome they want. The solution is for Congress to forbid so-called national injunctions except when issued by a panel of three federal judges. The use of these panels was the law until 1976, when Congress removed that requirement in most circumstances. The rules governing those panels should also guarantee a variety of perspectives among the judges hearing such weighty matters. In addition to the district judge to whom the case was assigned, the panel would include two appeals court judges, randomly selected, one from the circuit in which the case was filed and one from another circuit. Ideally, that other judge would come from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit because of its vast experience with administrative law issues, but that option might not be politically possible.

    Ruth bader Ginsburg- I prefer constitutions from other countries compared, to the American constitution. In part, because other countries update their constitution, their constitution is newer and isn't as ambiguous and open to interpretation compared to the American constitution. " America, very poor education and even more outdated constitution. Can't update, constitution to more current times must let it collect dust because never cleaning is clearly healthy. The fact, the USA courts have taken this long regardless of where you stand on the issue tells you how well their system works. My country, threw our former president in jail in less than year and she was still serving in office when she was impeached 6months later, in jail. It's not that complicated, sadly America is never a country to do the right thing for their people.

Seeing him and hearing his chaotic nonsensical mind at work have had an impact. The majority electorate is prodemocracy, wants him gone and is working to make it happen. Ask the businessmen who were brought together by the trump team to hear his pitch last week. "Meandering..." What was that?" Several voiced their concerns in public for a man who obviously can't make a coherent argument for his future presidency.

    The US Legal System and the Constitution are from the time of the Pony Express and it shows looking at the speed of the courts. The first constitution of the Dutch Republic was the Union of Utrecht in 1579. Article 1 was the Freedom of Religion, that seems to be questioned in the USA again. The last major rewrite has been in 1983, adapting the language to the current language and adapting the constitution to modern times. Other major updates 1815; 1848 and 1917. We never had the illusion, that the original authors could look 400 to 500 years ahead.

    I find it puzzling that the Constitution, the basis of the legal system, has clauses in it that seem unenforceable. Does it not have the force of law? Many people shout out their right to free speech or to bear arms, based on Const.clauses, but totally ignore others, like making state laws that directly counter other clauses, like establishing equal voting rights or keeping religion out of government bodies like schools. In order to reverse such state laws, someone has to bring a civil case against the offender. If the Constitution is THE basic law of the country, why are offenders not charged in criminal court?
