THAT would be a smart thing to do…..
Attorney General Garland has been prodded….pushed…bullied into going after Donald Trump for the numerous criminal things that the Committee thinks he did….
Now we have a DA down in Fulton County, Georgia going full guns after Trump….
She is NOT afraid it seems of indicted an ex-President….
So?
We NOW have FBI agents beginning to follow up on House Committee leads….
The lawyers aren’t stupid…
Trump might be ducking and jiving… But?
(Trying to sell a trial (Just one?) would ok…It wouldn’t….I
think Republicans would leave his ass like rats on a sinking ship….His idea of protest rallies?…Those people already got arrested)
With Trump’s legal liabilities piling up?
Worst case scenario’s are becoming more of a possibility …..
All the stories about Donald Trump running for President and his suckers kissing the ring?
They gonna crash and burn if the ‘Big Guy’ actually starts getting indicted in more than one place?
Oh, yea…
The Justice Department don’t just have ONE case against the guy…
