Trump’s DOJ meddling threw him under the bus 'he himself was driving'

As Feuer explains, the past week has offered perfect examples of how Trump’s attempts to weaponize the DOJ have blown up in his face. Trump’s meddling “imperiled one criminal case, set the stage for sanctions in a second and gummed up the chances that his pick for attorney general will be confirmed by the Senate.” “But even that confession did not stop Mr. Trump from doubling down on the vandalism narrative,” writes Feuer. Mr. Trump wrote. But according to Feuer, “As the weekend neared, the president seemed to throw Mr. Blanche under the bus that he himself was driving, issuing a series of confusing and contradictory messages.”
