Trump's Troubled Defenses and Missed Messages.
Former President Donald Trump privately boasted about his Fox News interview with Brett Baier, but his legal advisors were watching in terror as he arguably confessed to intentionally withholding classified government documents. Some of his former legal advisors predict that the Fox clip would be brought up by prosecutors at trial, and that Trump gave the government an enormous gift in that interview. Despite criticisms from both sides of the aisle, Trump does not clear his media appearances with his attorneys and continues to wage his communications war in the court of public opinion.
