Andy McCarthy: If Half of ‘Devastating’ Trump Indictment Is True, ‘He’s Toast’ and I Think They Can Prove More than Half
Breitbart ^ | June 10, 2023 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 06/10/2023 6:21:21 AM PDT by Timber Rattler

On Friday’s broadcast of Fox News Radio’s “Guy Benson Show,” author, National Review Contributing Editor, Fox News Contributor, and former Assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew McCarthy stated that while former President Donald Trump does have ample reason to say he’s been singled out, the indictment against him is “a devastating document. If they can prove half of it, he’s toast.” And he believes more than half of what’s in the indictment can be proven.

McCarthy stated, [relevant remarks begin around 35:35] “It’s a devastating document. If they can prove half of it, he’s toast. And I sense that they can probably prove more than half of it, because a lot of it is recorded conversations, testimony from his lawyers, and that sort of thing. So, I think, Guy, part of the reason that he’s been hitting so hard at the idea that he’s being singled out — which he’s got a lot of basis to say that — part of the reason is his real defense here…is the Hillary Clinton precedent. And I’ve had to try to make this point a number of times today, selective prosecution defenses are very effective in terms of trying to argue to the prosecutors that they should not exercise their discretion to charge. Once they do charge, those defenses don’t help you very much.”

So, how does any president stock their library? I’m thinking of Clinton’s doublewide trailer library, and Obama’s tree felling library?

If you were conservative I wouldn’t be arguing, we’d be agreeing

So you are schooling me on legal matters—what a joke. How do you know I haven’t read it? What are your legal credentials—please tell us.

Even if ( big if )Trump gets into trouble we the people will vote him out of trouble. Voter nullification.

“How do you know I haven’t read it?”

It is obvious. You worship Trump and you don’t address any issues. All mouth. No facts.

The Club despises Trump, and Americans....

Their club is getting smaller & smaller while the people that despise them get larger & larger.

Wait until the economy tanks & they’re still trying to “gin up” ratings with anti Trump sentiment.

You don’t know anything about me—I worship no living being. You, however, are posting things in conflict with our own tagline: “We’re a nation of feelings, not thoughts.”. Your feelings of hatred for Trump are on full display. Might want to change that to better reflect your current state of mind.

By the way, you didn’t answer my question: WHAT LEGAL TRAINING and CREDENTIALS DO YOU HAVE????

Man, that BS has been so overused it's becoming pathetic.

Are the writers still out on strike?

Do you understand the difference between respect and worship? /rhetorical question

How do you read the comment...

that....If they can proof half, and I believe they can

AI think that statement is a clear signal that McCarthy is representing the indictment to be substantially true and correct.

Here’s my take. This is the left’s bridge too far. We’ve been peaceful so far. That could change.

There is no compromising with the enemy. It’s like compromising with Stalin or Hitler.

We know he declassified all these documents because he told us so.

OK, maybe it's a trap, or maybe Trump is a F'up.

It's time to act adult. I've originated and handled classified docs. In my day, there were databases or lists of the docs, where they were stored, and who checked out/returned them and when.

DJT can't just wave his hand and say "They're unclassifed". At a minimum, he'd need to make sure that info gets out and is reflected in all those databases. The docs all get stamped as such. Otherwise, if someone were to come across them in a storage locker (like Bidet), how the hell do they know if they're just declassified or there because of some malicious intent? Just on DJTs word? Sorry, it doesn't work that way.

Now, if it's true that 99% of what he had were really just the empty file folders saying "SECRET" or "NOFORN" that he kept because they were cool, then yeah, the whole thing is stupid. If he really kept classified stuff and didn't ensure it was declassified per all the bureaucratic BS, then it's on him.

No, I’m going to vote for DeSantis, or whoever the Republican nominee is.

So now we know - you are a Uniparty Deep stater. Not sure what you are doing here other then spreading propaganda in the hopes that this site has as many dumb people as the ones you normally control

By the way how much $$$ are the RNC paying you to be here?
