Jeff Toobin should stick to whacking off during zoom calls [View all]
CNNs Jeffrey Toobin ripped over column arguing against prosecuting Trump
CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin is facing backlash on social media over a column urging Attorney General Merrick Garland not to seek criminal prosecution of former President Donald Trump.
Toobin who got fired from the New Yorker last year for masturbating on a Zoom call, but who was reinstated by CNN after a brief leave of absence argued that while Trumps conduct in office was disgraceful and wrong, there also is a lack of sufficient evidence for the attorney general to pursue any criminal charges against the former president.
Investigations of presidential wrongdoing, by Congress and others, are wise and even necessary, Toobin concluded. But actual prosecutions are not, and Donald Trump should be the beneficiary of this tradition, even if he himself would surely not offer such grace to others.
That didnt sit well with left-leaning talking heads, who called for a boycott of Toobin on Twitter, even as they spun theories about the legal analysts motives. Many accused Toobin of mounting a cheap publicity stunt as he argued that there wasnt enough evidence to bring a case against Trump over his efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
