GOP Rep Jim Jordan Struggles to Defend Trump Amidst Contradictions and Criticism.
TL;DR Summary
Rep. Jim Jordan defended former President Donald Trump against allegations made in the indictment charging him on 37 federal felony counts, including "willful retention of national defense information." Jordan ignored Trump's admission on tape that he did not declassify a document he took to Mar-a-Lago, as alleged in the indictment. Jordan chose to contradict Trump's own words as they appeared in the indictment, choosing instead to believe Trump when he said he declassified everything he took with him. Jordan attempted to deflect by focusing the conversation on former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and her email server.
