Eric Holder predicts Robert Mueller charges Trump with obstruction of justice
Wash Exam ^ | March 3, 2018 | Joel Gehrke

President Trump will face an obstruction of justice charge from special counsel Robert Mueller, former Attorney General Eric Holder predicted.

“You technically have an obstruction of justice case that already exists,” Holder, who served under then-President Obama, said...

Trump’s critics have speculated about an obstruction charge ever since he fired FBI Director James Comey in the midst of an investigation into potential ties between the Trump campaign and Russia...

“I have absolute right to do what I want to do with the Justice Department,” Trump told the New York Times in December 2017.

It’s not the first time that Holder has suggested that an obstruction case could be made, though has stopped short previously of predicting Mueller would bring the charge. But Trump’s defenders maintain that he has the authority to dismiss the FBI director at any time.

Hey Eric, if I were you, I'd be a whole lot more concerned about my own possible charges, keep my head down and STFU.

Wishful thinking on Holders part. Holder actually hopes he isn’t indicted.

Trump should turn the full power of DOJ on investigating 0bama, Holder and Hillary on the murders that happened, as planned, under Fast and Furious.

Why would Holder be crowing about obstruction? Has Mueller been leaking again? Anyhow, if Mueller does charge obstruction, it will be in regard to firing Comey. Prof. Alan Dershowitz sez POTUS has the right to fire anyone of his underlings at any time for any cause.

And selected members of the DOJ/FBI upper echelon submitted a phony, fraudulent, dossier to the FISA court and swore, under penalty of perjury, that the information was accurate contained within the dossier was true.

That seems to me like obstruction of justice.

The President firing an FBI Director, who works for the President, is not obstruction of justice.

FU Holder.

Someone should tell the corrupt negro Holder that the FBI director serves at the pleasure of the president.

While we all like to beat our chests and dump on Mueller and the deep state, we also must realize that the President, his close associates, and family still are in legal jeopardy as long as the special counsel is on the loose.

This crook is hoping that that happens so as to lessen *his* chances of facing various felony charges.
