Trump confesses *knows almost nothing about🚨drug trfkg of the guy he pardoned even though he helped bring 500 Ts of cocaine into US. Trump reveals his #narcissism makes him easy to manipulate.
After Burns asked Trump if this sends “the wrong message to drug dealers,” Trump segued into claiming Hernandez was the victim of “weaponized” govt, just as Trump himself was.
I don't agree that Trump doesn't usually know.🚨He's #EVIL, his #greed drives everything.
