Growing Chorus Of Democrats Call For Prosecuting President Trump When He Leaves Office

The Hill: Biden faces politically thorny decision on Trump prosecutions 

One of the biggest tests awaiting President-elect Joe Biden after he takes office is how his Justice Department will handle calls from some Democrats to investigate and prosecute President Trump. 

Trump will lose expansive legal protections after Jan. 20, and the new administration will have to decide whether to follow up on congressional and local law enforcement investigations or try to turn the page on the Trump era and avoid the political risks that could come with such an unprecedented court case. 

No former president has ever been charged with a crime after leaving office, but Trump is already the subject of a number of probes. In New York, the state attorney general and the Manhattan district attorney are conducting fraud investigations into his past business practices. 


WNU Editor: Prosecute him for what? After four years where we saw a special prosecutor, multiple investigations, etc. .... they still have nothing. But if they choose to go down this path. You can take this to the bank. The U.S. will be even more fractured than what it is today.

Not sure what the editor is drinking. Some of trumps Kool-Aid. But the only reason he hasn’t been prosecuted so far is because he’s a sitting president.

12.46. Ok whatever. But as the Ed said, prosecuted for what?

WNU editor, agreed. They have nothing on him.

Nadler is delusional. He can't count, and he can't tell time. With 70+ million Trump voters, does he think he will find a unanimous jury to convict him?

Just like the impeachment, these folks are insane.

Nadler is so fat and so weak that it is very easy to see his hip pronation when he unsteadily walks.

He has wet farts on camera while sitting in committee.

So much is wrong with Nadler's body, you have to wonder if his mind can work above 75% capacity.

Nadler has had gastric bypass surgery and he still looks like he could star in an episode of "My 600 pond Life".

People with poor health often have decreased IQ. Nadler is about at the 6th grade level playground level.

Clodpate,

Of course they can convict trump. They will have mail in voting by the jury.

Only reason he wasn’t prosecuted for obstruction of justice was because he was president. Tax evasion. Money laundering. Fraud. Rape.

11:27,

You are arguing that for 30 years or more the IRS has been incompetent. Also the IRS does not go after anything longer than 10 years ago.

You realize that Cyrus Vance is a hated blue blood. Any seated jury will detest the bastard.
