Basically saying Trump cannot ever be prosecuted -- as long as he keeps lying.

1. Which is why he does it.

Lying’s been very very good to him.

2. Some former federal prosecutors...

Bear in mind that these are some other former federal prosecutors…

Rudy Giuliani

Joseph DiGenova

Sidney Powell

So, when you see “former federal prosecutor” bear in mind that the title should not confer instant credibility.

4. Right?!?!?!?

10. Media lawyers don't get paid to win cases

They get paid to attract and audience and tell them what they want to hear.

7. when I hear a former federal prosecutor give his

"source close to the DOJ" paid by the network opinion I think: and your "source close to the DOJ" would be your wife's manicurist's fourth cousin, a barista at a Starbucks near the DOJ?...ok, got it

3. I don't think claiming

Trump believed something that he claimed repeatedly in lost elections, will be a great defense. Especially when it comes to the multiple charges that are involved.

[Justice matters.]

5. Another ex-prosecutor with decades-long experience disagrees.

Day 2 of J6 public hearings: Republican witnesses prove Donald Trump's criminal intent.

And that's only from Day 2.

6. I think we HAVE to prosecute him...

the alternative is to have it all repeat in a few years. If not from trump himself, then someone like him, like DeSantis.

8. I think a bigger problem is you have to find an

INCREDIBLY brave prosecuter. A) Imagine the violent threats against the person prosecuting by the zombie mob. B) If you don't win, and Marmalade Mussolini (Koresh forbid) gets re-elected down the road, just imagine the retribution.

9. Where is Sally Yates?

I am certain she would not have any problem prosecuting the lying crooked psychopath.
