'You won't escape': Ex-Trump lawyer issues warning to MAGA fans
excerpt:
A former general counsel to the Department of Homeland Security during Donald Trump's administration took to social media to caution voters over what he witnessed from inside the former administration. Writing in a thread on X Sunday night, John Mitnick said, "I was a senior, Senate-confirmed appointee in the Trump administration. I saw it from the inside. It was a chaotic disaster. I am also a lifelong conservative, a former Republican nominee for Congress, and a former White House Counsel." While he agrees with the many who have come forward to talk about Trump as "reckless, angry, vengeful, and narcissistic," he added an additional argument. "Perhaps you recognize Trump’s many serious flaws, but you think you will benefit from some of his “policies” while escaping the effects of the chaos and lawlessness," wrote Mitnick. No one will escape, he argued. "Although Trump will tend to follow Project 2025 (a problem in itself), you can’t trust him to implement any particular policy. Trump has no political principles. He will reverse any position any time if it suits his personal interest. Surely you’ve already noticed that," Mitnick continued. "You won’t escape the disastrous effects of his policies (e.g., tariffs) on the economy, global instability and damage to national security resulting from his admiration for foreign dictators, or the chaos, lawlessness, and persecution that he promises. No one will," he promised. "I disagree with Kamala Harris on many issues, but she will respect our constitutional system and the rule of law, and she will support our international alliances and allies. She has also pledged to appoint a Republican to her Cabinet," said Mitnick. He closed by saying that, like many conservatives, he believes it's time to "close the book" on Trump and rebuild the party. Read the full thread here. |
