That's obviously a dangerous situation. Let's keep our fingers crossed that we get through to inaugaration without major incident. https://www.axios.com/trump-white-house-conspiracy-theories-d95450a4-c7a3-4579-a568-0473b18529c9.html I don't see Pence leading that charge. He's spineless. Trump is there to stay until Biden takes over next month or sooner if he is afraid to leave without a Pence POTUS pardon in his pocket. All the more reason to resign. Though he has none of his own, Trump may be depending on Biden's basic decency to avoid federal prosecution, or he will try to pardon himself. Trying to prosecute a President for what he did in office, will open up a huge can of worms. Maybe even get lots of the Legislative Branch tossed. People will say, where were the checks and balances? You people failed! So we want you gone and maybe even prosecuted. I have more confidence in the Attorney General of New York State, where Trump's state crimes are not pardonable by a POTUS. It would be a grin to see NYS Troopers waiting outside Trump Tower with an arrest warrant for the Trumpster. If I were the arraigning judge, I would refuse Trump bail, since Trump has the bucks and an airplane to flee to a country with no extradition treaty with the United States.  It is a long way from an accusation to a conviction. I hope you are not going to be too disappointed if Trump just pays a fine and walks away. I am also not sure why the 14th amendment does not extend a presidential pardon down to the states. It is certainly an "Immunity". The 14th amendment made a lot of the language in the original document referring to federal powers, include the states. It would just depend on how Pence words it. And Trump may also get NY pols in trouble. Where was the alleged crime, that they tried get all his bank records? If they can not come up with a valid reason, all will be tossed and maybe even lawsuits against NY for illegal search. Bilious, a well-known expert on NY State law, is planning to join Trump's legal team. DAMMMIT DO NOT SAY TRUMP"S NAME I WANTED TO ELIMINATE IT FROM MY MEMORY. Anyway how many poor people have hired security details due to death threats from association with Trump, covid, election, etc mk5000 [reading from Bob Hope's journal] It was May of 1941, the producer of our radio show asked if I'd take the show out of its Hollywood studio for one show at March Field, one of our air bases in Riverside California. I said 'what for? there was no war going on. Why should we drag the show down there?' I was resisting an idea that was to change my whole life. We had no idea that we were gonna discover an audience so ready for laughter.--Narrator. American Masters (TV Series) This Is Bob Hope... You are confused with Clinton suicides. |
