In addition, the Constitution and federal law does not ban presidents from being indicted, but others argue that the Constitution's "structural principles" forbid it.

In the Starr memo, Rotunda argued that if the "framers of the Constitution wanted to create a special immunity for the president, they could have written the relevant clause."~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The liberals have been planning on this since the day that we elected Donald J. Trump as our president.

A memo is not a law.

In that case it should be no problem to indict former presidents, sec.s of state, AGs and so on and so forth.

The key words here are “ criminal acts contrary to official duties of the president”. Exactly what criminal acts has he committed?

for serious criminal acts that are not part of, and are contrary to, the president’s official duties.”

************************************************************
I take this to mean any “crimes” must have been committed while serving as president.

The President can be indicted. But he can also pardon himself. That’s why the Constitution permits the House to impeach the President, and permits the Senate to subsequently remove him from office.

Raising the issue is simply part of a coordinated campaign to create the impression in the public mind that the President has done something indictable and/or impeachable.

Oh, let's go down this road, please!! We'll see how fast these un-United States become ungovernable, with those in power bringing up false charges. Then civility will end, the people will once and for all lose confidence in government beyond the county level, and then it become warring factions as we disintegrate.

But make no mistake. Liberal politicians and journalists will be the first to hang or be shot. A country doesn't implode without severe unintended consequences.

A newly-obtained memo written during special counsel Kenneth Starr's investigation of President Bill Clinton

Memos are like you know what..., everyone has one... The National Enquirer is a paragon of news virtue today... I never thought the MSM would aspire to emulate them....

Indicted? even on Trumped up charges ?? Is this how the media exacts its revenge? By sacking the country and submitting it to the rule of a few in black robes?

The DC Beltway Boyz are nothing but a bunch of thugs,, selected not elected by a bunch of misguided adolescents pretending to be above it all.

Except if your last name ends with “clinton”.

All the more reason for President Trump to fire 90% of ALL federal employees.

Who would believe that a president could not be inducted?

Clearly, Nixon would have faced indictment if he were not pardoned.

According to the findings, the memo concludes that "no one, even President Clinton, is above the law"

Well, the Felons Clinton were BOTH above the law. So this memo is Bull0bama.

The liberals have been planning on this since the day that we elected Donald J. Trump as our president.

On the other hand, I don't imagine that they were planning on dancing in the Spoandau Ballet under the DC cherry trees, like they're gonna end up doing if they skin this "removal" smokewagon...
