CNN Analyst Stunned After Trump Botches 'Easiest Question In Human History'
HuffPost
President Donald Trump's comments about convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell left senior legal analyst Elie Honig in near disbelief.
CNN senior legal analyst Elie Honig was blown away after hearing President Donald Trump’s answer to a question about whether he would pardon convicted sex trafficker and close Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell.
“It’s the easiest question in human history,” Honig told host Michael Smerconish on Saturday, quoting colleague Kevin Liptak as appropriately asking, “Are you kidding me?”
Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence after being convicted of helping Epstein sexually abuse underage girls.
On Friday, following the news that the Justice Department’s No. 2 official had met with Maxwell in federal prison, a reporter asked Trump if he would consider a pardon or commutation for her.
“It’s something I haven’t thought about,” Trump replied. “I’m allowed to do it, but it’s something I have not thought about.”
