EXCERPT:
GOLDBERG: "I think the answers to both of those questions are “No.” Obviously, he should recuse himself and just as obviously he’s not going to. I would assume that he would give maximum deference to Donald Trump. The only thing that tempers that assumption is that, as you mentioned before, when there was this other case about whether he needed to respond to a state subpoena as president, the Supreme Court was unanimous in saying “Yes.” So, perhaps there are limits, even to Clarence Thomas’s deference."
