Former White House lawyer Ty Cobb seems certain Donald Trump will go down for his alleged mishandling of classified documents .

On Thursday, Cobb told CNN s Erin Burnett he thinks the Department of Justice has a tight case against the former president, who is being investigated by special counsel Jack Smith over a laundry list of accusations.

The attorney, who worked for Trump from July 2017 and May 2018, said he was confident The Apprentice star will go to jail for obstruction for refusing DOJ requests to return classified documents after he left the White House.

Cobb told Burnett it wouldnt take much of a legal hurdle for Smith to prove his case against the politician.
