There can be no reasonable dispute but that the institutions of government - particularly the Department of Justice - apply the rules, the laws, and the Constitution differently to Donald Trump than to the rest of us. And we are forever asking ourselves . "Why is this happening?" Glenn tries to take on that question by drawing from his decades of experience at the Department of Justice. It seems the American people will have to get to the polls and take his power away - thereby recalibrating the institutions of government so that the laws are applied equally for all of us.

0:00.0 | It's time for Justice Matters with former federal prosecutor and MS NBC analyst Glenn Kirchner. Do the rules of law apply differently to Donald Trump than everyone else? |
0:20.0 | Here's Glenn with his op-ed written for MS NBC. |
0:24.2 | So friends, I think it's actually fair to say that it's beyond reasonable dispute, |
0:31.1 | that the rules, the laws, the Constitution apply differently to Donald |
0:37.2 | Trump than they apply to you or then they apply to me. And we are forever asking ourselves, why is that? Well today I'd like to |
0:48.4 | take a crack at answering that question based on what I saw, |

1:12.0 | may not even be a |
1:13.4 | satisfying explanation, but maybe it can provide at least some insight |
