Legal analyst is left shocked by Trump's major mishap on 'easiest question in human history'

A legal analyst has spoken out about Donald Trump’s mishap when answering a question dubbed ‘easiest’ in the world.

Donald Trump has been in the news quite a lot in the last week, particularly when it came to disgraced pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, and then his blunder about Epstein’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell.

The Trump administration has insisted that people should move on from Epstein, leading to people digging up his past with the financier.

Trump’s friendship with Epstein has been detailed throughout the decades, however, he has staunchly claimed that he did not like Epstein and had not spoken to him for years before the sex crimes came to light.

But, the Wall Street Journal published a piece that claimed Maxwell collected messages from Epstein’s associates to celebrate his 50th birthday in 2003… and Trump was someone who provided his well wishes.

WSJ reports the letter included a few lines of typewritten text, which was seemingly framed by a hand-drawn naked woman on the page.

"Happy Birthday - and may every day be another wonderful secret," the alleged letter concluded.

While Trump claimed the letter was fake, a report by the New York Times last week claimed his name is in fact on the list of contributors for Epstein’s birthday book.

Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year sentence for helping Epstein sexually abuse minors, has allegedly been very cooperative with authorities regarding those who were associated with Epstein.

But the POTUS is now in hot water, with even a CNN legal analyst speaking out over his reaction to a simple question about the woman.

When asked whether she’s given credible information, he said: "[I]t's going to be up to her whatever she thinks is credible, she should release.”

He was then asked if he would ever consider giving Maxwell a pardon or a commutation.

Speaking to a Fox News reporter, the president replied: "It's something I haven't thought about. It's something - I'm allowed to do it, but it's something I have not thought about."

This led to CNN senior legal analyst Elie Honig being blown away by his wishy-washy response.

“It’s the easiest question in human history,” Honig told the hosts on Saturday July 26.

Honig was bewildered at Trump’s answer.

“A pardon for the single worst, or No. 2 after Jeffrey Epstein, worst child sex trafficker in modern history?” he said. “Absolutely not. N-O.”

Honig went on to say it’s ‘hard to imagine’ that Trump would pardon Maxwell, but ‘other people who I know who are closer to Donald Trump and who have worked with him in the past say it could well happen'.

As of right now, Trump is facing demands to release the files related to the case.

For Maxwell, if she isn’t pardoned, she’ll spend the rest of her sentence behind bars after she was also found guilty of sex trafficking minors, conspiracy to entice a minor to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, and conspiracy to transport a minor with the intent to engage in criminal sexual activity.
