It’s hard to pick out any one moment (full video of the interview above) from Trump defense lawyer Todd Blanche’s Sunday hit on meet the press that looked the worst but this has to be a pretty solid contender when Kristen Welker asks him “Why was this photo of a desk with a drawer open containing photos of Trump taken down?” to which Todd said “You can see in that photo there are photographs of women. We learned after released it that there were concerns about those women.”
Welker then asks “Are you saying that one or more of the women is a victim or survivor of Jeffrey Epstein?” Blanche then said “No, that’s not what I’m saying,” and then continued stammering.
Another gem from later on when Welker asked Blanche why Ghislaine Maxwell was moved just days after he interviewed her. “That’s a Bureau of Prisons security issue that I will not talk about,” said Blanche. Welker then asked “Did you have anything to do with it?” Blanche then responded with “I am responsible for the Bureau of Prisons, so every decision they make lands on my desk.”
