JOHN YOO (GUEST): The hard thing is, there is a little comment in the indictment where President Trump allegedly says, I think to a reporter on tape, “See, I've got this document" --
CHARLIE KIRK (HOST): Oh I know, this is --
YOO: “And it's still secret and classified."
KIRK: So his defense would have to be, professor, “That was just me doing showmanship," right? “I was just being entertaining." That's a tough argument to make to a jury, isn't it? “I was joking," doesn't always hit, right?
YOO: That's a tough one.
