If this was a normal country he would’ve just blown the prosecution’s case out of the water. I don’t disagree with what he said but the President interjecting himself into a case before any trial is very dangerous. I believe there was a president years ago that said something much more benign than this and nearly lost the case for the prosecution because of it.
