Judge Napolitano: Mueller Could Potentially Indict Trump After Flynn Plea Deal
https://www.mediaite.com/tv/judge-na...ynn-plea-deal/
When a rabid conservative FOX host says Trump is in serious jeopardy, you know things are bad.
"If Mueller has enough evidence to indict Trump, then he will indict Trump."
That's all it says. Not exactly insightful analysis, is it? Notice how many times words like "if", and "could", and "possible", and "it depends" are used. It's speculation, and nothing more.
What we do know is that Flynn was essentially given a slap on the wrist, that he's accused of being a liar which ruins his credibility, and that what he was actually indicted for doesn't implicate the President.
Does Mueller have an ace up his sleeve? Who knows, but this isn't it.Last edited by Mountain Man; 12-02-2017, 07:20 PM.Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd

Does Mueller have an ace up his sleeve? Who knows, but this isn't it.“He felt that his whole life was a kind of dream and he sometimes wondered whose it was and whether they were enjoying it.” - Douglas Adams.

Trump’s days are numbered.That's what

The issue is that US liberals are dedicated to pursuing policies and ideas that have failed almost everywhere else.

(Breitbart) The Obama administration earlier this year said unequivocally that it did not have a problem with the Trump transition team reaching out to foreign officials, contrary to reports suggesting otherwise.
On January 13, 2017, State Department spokesman Mark Toner (pictured) said, “this building doesn’t see anything necessarily inappropriate about contact between members of the incoming administration and foreign officials.”
The remark came in response to a reporter’s question specifically about then-incoming National Security Adviser Ret. Lt. Gen. Mike Flynn and then-Russian Ambassador to the U.S. Sergei Kislyak.
Yet Trump critics cried foul about those calls, after revelations on Friday that Flynn, during the transition period, had asked Kislyak to ask Moscow not to retaliate to Obama administration sanctions imposed on December 29, 2016, and that he had also asked him to vote down or delay a United Nations vote condemning Israeli settlements.
They said that Flynn potentially violated the Logan Act, a law enacted in 1799 that prohibits negotiation by unauthorized persons with foreign governments having a dispute with the United States.
Since then, no one has ever been successfully prosecuted for violating it.
