Thom Hartmann: Is Trump Really Going to Jail? (w/ David Cay Johnston)

Feb 22, 2022 • Will Donald Trump go to jail? He is over 70 and most people over that age without ‘previous’ don’t go to jail.

How likely is this scenario?

David Cay Johnston joined Thom to discuss the possibilities.

Investigative journalist David Cay Johnston, who has reported on Trump for three decades, says the book is “very, very important” and helps to answer how Trump got to the White House.
