John Podesta Goes Off on Trump: His White House has “a Complete Disregard for the Truth”

LISTEN TO TLR’S LATEST PODCAST:

Former campaign chairman for Hillary Clinton’s failed 2016 bid for president, John Podesta has come out swinging at President Donald Trump.

Podesta, in an interview with The Global Politico, unleashed on Trump calling him, “absolutely crazy,” “unfit for office,” and explaining that Trump’s White House has a “complete disregard for the truth.” The former Clinton campaign chairman even explained that he believes that the firing of FBI Director James Comey, during a ongoing investigation into the Trump administration’s relationships with Russia amounts “close to an obstruction case.”

LISTEN:

“The problem in the Trump White House is they have no one who really stands up to him,” Podesta said. “He’s impetuous, he’s impulsive, he fires things off and if anything, they enable him rather than trying to contain what are moves that in any other context would seem, you know, absolutely crazy. … If they’re going to try to right this place and be able to be effective, I think they need a much stronger team who can resist his impulses and tell him that he’s wrong.”
