IT appears Trump has committed two crimes...

The evidence is clear Trump (and others in his circle) broke the following two criminal statutes.


18 USC Sec. 1512
(c)Whoever corruptly—
(1)alters, destroys, mutilates, or conceals a record, document, or other object, or attempts to do so, with the intent to impair the object’s integrity or availability for use in an official proceeding; or
(2)otherwise obstructs, influences, or impedes any official proceeding, or attempts to do so,
mshall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than 20 years, or both.


18 USC Sec. 371
If two or more persons conspire either to commit any offense against the United States, or to defraud the United States, or any agency thereof in any manner or for any purpose, and one or more of such persons
do any act to effect the object of the conspiracy, each shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.

If, however, the offense, the commission of which is the object of the conspiracy, is a misdemeanor only, the punishment for such conspiracy shall not exceed the maximum punishment provided for such
misdemeanor.


The question becomes... Should he be prosecuted?

You'd better get that shit over to Chuck the Schmuck and Mrs. Skeletor, Jarod. Trump's getting ready to walk all over your next candidate. ;)

Trump lost badly to Biden who never had to leave his basement.

The only question I see is what are we waiting for?

I am satisfied that he committed both of those crimes. I agree he should be prosecuted.

It is good to know that the DOJ is definitely conducting a criminal investigation into the conduct of Donald Trump while he was president. That much is out there. Everything else is quite the object of much curiosity. The DOJ is under no obligation to make public statements about the case. That is going to keep everyone guessing and nobody knowing until we hear more. It would probably be to the DOJ's disadvantage to make any public statements about the case, so don't expect much more.

Merrick Garland will have to decide if he can bring a case against Donald Trump. The decision will be based on whether or not he believes he can prove a case. Since it would be bad if he brought a case he could not prove, he needs to be as certain as possible that he has the goods on Trump. The January 6th Select Committee is uncovering more evidence as time goes by, so expect the DOJ to be patient to see what else comes to light.

Agree with after November. Garland won't be stopped by who Trump is but it would be proper to avoid the possibility of influencing an election where Trump is not a candidate.

Agree. Plus we don't want to rile up the Trumpanzees and get them to the polls by making a martyr out of their Cheeto Hitler. lol
