Conservative Judge Luttig: American voters ‘do not care’ about Trump’s misdeeds





American voters are unfazed by President-elect Trump’s various misdeeds, said retired federal Judge J. Michael Luttig, a longtime conservative jurist who has vocally opposed the former president.

“The American voters do not care about who, as an individual, is in the White House,” Luttig said Wednesday evening during a panel hosted by the Society for the Rule of Law.

“They don’t care, in this instance, what this man has done for the past eight years,” he said. “They could care less that he’s the first American president ever to be indicted for grave crimes against the United States of America…They do not care about his views on women. They do not care about any of this.”

It’s one of many lessons to be learned from the presidential election, he said, explaining that Republicans successfully convinced the American electorate that “nothing mattered” from Trump’s previous term and he ran on a “clean slate.”

“And the American people bought it,” he said. “Hook, line and sinker.”

Trump has faced a series of legal troubles since leaving the White House, including four criminal indictments and several civil matters.
