A group of anti-Trump cable news legal commentators reportedly meet for a weekly Zoom call to discuss the latest on former President Trump’s legal troubles.
The weekly meetings are scheduled for Fridays and are hosted by Norman Eisen, a CNN legal analyst and former Obama official, according to Politico Magazine.
“Do some of the people on the call align their positions as a result of their discussions? Yes, probably,” Politico’s Ankush Khardori wrote. “That can sound nefarious, but it is also the natural result of a group discussion that is working properly. People refine and clarify their positions. They find points of agreement that might surprise them. Their areas of disagreement become narrower, more precise.”
Anti-Trump GOP commentators Bill Kristol and George Conway, liberal Harvard professor Laurence Tribe, former Nixon White House counsel John Dean, MSNBC legal analyst Andrew Weissmann, and former CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin regularly attend the Zoom discussion, Politico reported.
The call serves as a chance to discuss different legal arguments and, according to the outlet, helps to “to generate and shape content for Trump-hungry consumers.”
Conway, a contributor for The Atlantic, can also be seen weighing in on Trump’s cases on MSNBC, along with Weissman, who also hosts a podcast called, “Prosecuting Donald Trump.” Toobin, a former CNN legal analyst, has returned to CNN as a semi-regular guest, and recently argued Fulton County DA Fani Willis’ election interference case against Trump was “going nowhere.”
