how much trouble will donald trump be in if he's anyone other than donald trump? >> a damming picture. this is a person that managed todd distance himself from all manner of criminal activities that's boiling around him. will this go so far to actually attach to donald trump? that remains to be seen. surely he's involved in this whether or not there can be evidence that links him into a conclusive way that prosecutors can then use all the elements of their case but it is not great but this is a guy who's always been slippery. when you say he's slippery, in the past, he suggested he's paying people off and bought people off and basically bragged about all sorts of criminal activities. donald trump does not have that much influence anymore. is this a matter of when because it is not like rudy giuliani can't practice law and can't protect him anymore. is this inevitability or there are still holes in these cases that can allow trump or members of his family to get free. >> it is hard to say because we don't know what all the evidence is or what the charges will be. a

and he kept warning trump that trump was advocating a missile strike. he kept saying, if you launch a strike, it's going to escalate with the iranians, and it was one of what milley called two nightmare scenarios that he was worried about in the aftermath of the election. >> it seems like this is a scenario, a nightmare scenario, susan, that a number of officials had. you know, just sort of more broadly, the speaker nancy pelosi was concerned and had a conversation with milley about the possibility of a nuclear weapon being used. and i think at the time you heard a lot of people even close to the president saying, you know, don't worry too much about what he's doing with what turned out to be the big lie. really downplaying that. and you also get that sense as well with not worrying too much about what might happen with some sort of foreign engagement. and now we're getting this look at just how dire it was. >> again, i think what milley was doing in a way, he was taking the playbook in the final days of richard nixon's tenure. remember the defense secr

i talked to a trump adviser at the time, a source close to trump who described him as out of his mind, that he had lost it and that he was loving what took place on january 6th. he was loving the capital mob, a former senior white house official told me. and getting back to some of these excerpts and these books talking about how he hit the roof when fox news called arizona for biden, that is true. that is much of what we heard at the time. what is so disturbing about this, wolf, is this is further confirmation that trump was becoming unhinged, that he was just unglued because he could not accept the fact that he was a loser and look at what he's doing to this day. just over the weekend, repeating these lies over and over again, breathing life into these dangerous conspiracy theories that could result in violence down the road. >> very, very dangerous, potentially. hope it doesn't happen. david, you had unique experience and experiencing witnessing the end of nixon administration upclose. you were even written about in "the final days." so what similarity dos you see similarities in w
