It doesn't excuse the behavior, but yes...there are people in the world who break the law who didn't realize they were doing that at the time.

Trump's not one of those people. He ALWAYS knows. That's the adrenaline rush for him...breaking laws he believes are there for "other people," and getting away with it.
