Harvard constitutional law professor Laurence Tribe described having not one but multiple wow moments when reading a newly unsealed court filing from special counsel Jack Smiths office that offers evidence of Donald Trump s alleged efforts to overturn his 2020 election loss.
I said, Wow, about 25 times in a quick reading of this document, Tribe told CNN s Erin Burnett on Wednesday.
I bet there are another 25 that I will encounter, he added.
Tribe said there are lots of jaw-dropping things in the filing.
Such as Trumps so what? response to the news that his vice president, Mike Pence , had been rushed from the Senate during the U.S. Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021, and Trumps comment to relatives that, It doesnt matter if you won or lost the election, you still have to fight like hell.
Thats just a sampling. Its the tip of a horribly large and scary iceberg, Tribe said.
Earlier in the interview, Tribe said the filing presented a mountain of evidence that was overwhelming and that Smith has the goods, he has the receipts.
