‘What Do You Do When a Criminally Minded Person Is President?’

What about the other 3 cases? Lying to the FBI and hourding all that top secret stuff. I'd love to know what he was doing with that stuff and why he refused to turn it over, BEFORE the election. But the corrupt Supreme's are there for King Don.

Funny that you're concerned about a former President that's allowed to have such documents but not Dementia Joe who was never supposed to have any of those documents.

Those are state felonies.

For the SC to do such a thing would be a DRAMATIC over reach

The Supreme Court never corrects an obvious state overreach?

Sorry that Trump wasn't able to lock up Hillary like he promised. It's because she didn't break so many laws that prison or a felony was warranted. Trump certainly wanted her charged. Was he not serious about that?

AND, what Hillary did wasn't a felony. Trump made it a felony then broke that law. You don't think he should be charged with his own law that he broke?

What laws did Trump break you ask? Hey Rex, why did Trump fire you?

Rex Tillerson says Trump got ‘frustrated’ when told he couldn’t do something that ‘violates the law’​

Trump did not even try to lock up Killary. Starting off with a lie is just your style.

He certainly wanted to. Do you deny that?

What stopped him ? The rule of law and adults in the room.

Those adults will no longer be there if he gets elected again

They were ruling on a Constitutional interpretation.

What Constitutional issue is there in the NY case? What Federal law?

We are looking at the possibility of electing a criminal to be our president. So what do we do if or when that happens? We have been here before. And it has been the people who stopped the criminal.

‘What Do You Do When a Criminally Minded Person Is President?’

Corey Brettschneider’s new book couldn’t have landed at a more auspicious moment. The Presidents and the People: Five Leaders Who Threatened Democracy and the Citizens Who Fought to Defend It, went on sale last Tuesday — the day after the Supreme Court’s ruling in the election interference case against Donald Trump that gave presidents broad immunity for their “official acts.”

Brettschneider, a professor of politics and constitutional law at Brown University, writes about five past presidents who “posed great threats to democracy” by pushing the limits of legality — John Adams, James Buchanan, Andrew Johnson, Woodrow Wilson and Richard Nixon — and the citizens who responded by pushing back in an age-old American pattern of constitutional crisis and recovery.

Adams, after all, had prosecuted people who criticized him, Buchanan “colluded with the Supreme Court to deny constitutional personhood to African Americans,” as Brettschneider outlines. Johnson urged violence against his political opponents while heightening white supremacy in the wake of the Civil War, Wilson “nationalized Jim Crow” and Nixon, of course, committed criminal acts in the sprawling Watergate scandal. “When the president does it,” as the 37th president (in)famously said, “that means it is not illegal.”

In response to these executives’ attempts to weaken or outright eliminate the checks on their power, citizens fought back — from abolitionist Frederick Douglass to journalists Ida B. Wells and William Monroe Trotter to Pentagon Papers leaker Daniel Ellsberg and others — recommitting to the Constitution and stoking what Brettschneider calls “democratic recovery.”

Brettschneider reminds us that we were warned from the beginning this could happen.

“Revolutionary War heroes such as Patrick Henry predicted that the office was so powerful that a president with authoritarian ambitions could simply lay claim to the ‘American throne,’” Brettschneider writes, noting that “the power of the presidency has always been a loaded gun, one that threatens American democracy itself. Patrick Henry’s warning has always been relevant.” And it has arguably never been more relevant than it is right now.

The Feds don't like it when states try to prosecute violations of federal law.

The Federal Election Commission administers and enforces the laws that govern the financing of elections for federal office—the U.S. House, Senate and President. Other election-related laws are not within the FEC's jurisdiction. Any person may file a complaint with the Commission if that person believes a violation of the federal election campaign laws or FEC regulations has occurred or is about to occur. The Commission reviews every complaint filed. If the Commission finds that a violation occurred, possible outcomes can range from a letter reiterating compliance obligations to a conciliation agreement, which may include a monetary civil penalty. All FEC enforcement matters are kept confidential until they are resolved.

Maybe you have other examples where a state did that? LOL!
