Ping - Pong
I feel like a ping pong ball in the middle of a tournament. Been listening/watching the GOP side and then the Dem's argue their cases about Trump and the Mueller investigation. Some judges say a sitting POTUS cannot be indited, other judges say he/she can. Some say criminal charges can be brought, others say that the only option is impeachment. This whole thing is so f**'d up I don't know who to believe. Can't rely on the media or press for the straight scoop because they are all supporting whatever biased view they have. Stupid. |

I suppose you can always dream. |

Stupid. ] I think you are overprocessing. My understanding is that a sitting POTUS cannot be indicted, but can be named as a co-conspirator, which should be enough to get him impeached. That's what I thought but yesterday I watched some people (including two former federal judges) debate the issue. One side said the only recourse was impeachment via Congress. The other argued that there's nothing to prevent criminal charges and indictment. Apparently this is a long standing legal debate because there is no precedent for the latter. I saw one "expert" on Joy Reid's show on MSNBC who claimed that Trump could be charged with obstruction of justice for even *thinking* about firing Mueller. If I were ever brought up on charges for some things I've "thought" about, I'd spend my life in jail. :-) Bottom line is: This whole issue is out of hand. Trump is Trump and he isn't going to change. I think the best thing the Dems can do is to drop all the rancor by the likes of Maxine Waters and some of the idiotic statements by Nancy Pelosi and seriously focus on the mid term elections and the general in 2020. The current course they have chosen solves nothing and only furthers the divide that has grown in the country, plus it screws up any normal legislative business ... like approving a budget. |
