John Bolton Warns Trump Lawyer About TV Appearances Amidst Elector Vote Counting Controversy
Former Trump National Security Advisor John Bolton cautioned Trump lawyer John Lauro for making potentially incriminating comments about Trump on TV, stating that it could be used against him. Lauro had stated that Trump asked Mike Pence to pause the counting of electoral votes and send it back to the state legislature. Bolton believes this could create a dramatic confrontation if Pence is called to testify, as he believes Pence is a man of integrity and the jury would likely believe him over Trump. Lauro later clarified that his comments were consistent with public records and did not constitute an admission.
