MSNBC Analyst explains Mueller outsmarting Guiliani & Trump



.
MSNBC legal analyst Danny Cevallos explained how special counsel Robert Mueller will use Paul Manafort’s alleged lies to sneak past President Donald Trump’s claims of executive privilege.

The special counsel’s office alleged Monday in a court filing that Manafort violated his plea agreement by lying to investigators, and Mueller will present his evidence to a judge in a public hearing.

“Courts are different than the Mueller team’s mandate for secrecy,” Cevallos told “Morning Joe.” “Anything that’s filed in court, unless it’s filed under seal, and there’s a presumption against filing things under seal in federal court, will be publicly available.”

Trump’s attorney Rudy Giuliani has signaled that the White House will claim executive privilege to prevent Mueller’s final report from public release, but Cevallos said the special counsel could reveal some of his strongest evidence at Manafort’s sentencing.

Within hours if he fires Mueller, and will fully exposed them all for all their crimes. If trump tries to pardon t'll backfire on them for pardoning a known co-conspirator with him, and make the cases even stronger against them.
