Tell it to Comey.

ETA: Trump isn't on the ballot. Do ALL DOJ investigations go on hold for 60 days?

Trump is a regular citizen who hasn't declared his candidacy for anything. If he does run for president does that mean he can't be indicted, too?

It's a silly rule.

I agree with a lot of your post. fightforfreedom Sep 2022 #13
