WATCH: Ben Shapiro Claims It Would be Hard to Prosecute Trump Because He Isn’t a Planner

Conservative media members have come to grips with the fact that Donald Trump could very well be indicted. That doesn’t mean, however, that they won’t continue to give him cover.

During a recent show, Ben Shapiro gave his thoughts on why Trump would be difficult to prosecute. According to the pundit, the former President isn’t a planner.

Shapiro told his audience, “If you want to prove intent – and that is what this committee said they were doing. They said from the outset that there was a 7 step plan, like a concerted plan, of intent to get us from November 4 to January 6 and that that plan was put in place, step-by-step methodically. They’ve not proved that there was a plan, right? It seems more like Donald Trump thrashing against a glass box, is more what it seems like, frankly. But that was always true.”

The pundit continued:

“I just – he’s not a person who has a plan. And a lot of folks on the left were like, oh, you’re excusing him — and it’s like, since when is a person not having the capacity to make long-term plans some sort of defense of the person qua person? It’s a defense against a criminal liability charge. Doesn’t mean it’s a defense of the person qua person. Ok, but the point is that this is always going to be a difficulty with Trump. Because Trump is so – he’s so instinctive in the way that he responds to things that it’s very difficult to ever to say that he had intent to do this particular thing that required a concerted plan. That’s just not the way that he operates. And I think everyone who watches him knows this.”
