As Michael Cohen prepares to publicly testify before the House Oversight Committee on Wednesday, Rachel Maddow looked to history for clues about what might happen if the former Trump lawyer hands over evidence implicating Donald Trump in a crime, as he is expected to do.
According to the MSNBC host, there are clear parallels between what’s about to happen this week and what happened during Richard Nixon’s presidency.

Trump’s world could be on the verge of crashing in

Since Trump took office, there has been a non-stop category five hurricane of scandal and corruption, all while he remains in the White House.

But as Rachel Maddow said on Tuesday, what is about to happen this week takes us to uncharted territory in the Trump era. For the first time, Congress may receive concrete evidence that the president of the United States committed crimes.

In response, lawmakers have the ability to “generate a formal criminal referral,” as Maddow said.
If the Department of Justice under Trump has any interest in upholding the law, history has demonstrated that what Cohen is about to do could trigger the end of this presidency.
