Did not stop the demonkraps from indicting former Defense Secy Cap Weinberger 4 days before the 1992 election b/c, according to Wikipedia... “This [indictment] was controversial because it cited a Weinberger diary entry contradicting a claim made by President George H. W. Bush.”
No problem with the demonkraps to use indictments to swing an election. No, they could not wait until one day after the election ... Cap had to be indicted on the Friday before election day. Or should I bring up the late Senator Ted Stevens - AK?
I understand why you might take that position, for political optics and to avoid criticism of influencing an election. It wouldn’t matter when real indictments for real crimes against politically connected demonkraps take place - there will be a monsoon of criticism unleashed. We are a nation of laws or we aren’t. Politicians and their administrations are subject to the same. If the demonkraps don’t like the indictments, then don’t commit the crimes when entrusted with power. We have trial system where they can try to prove their theory of political persecution. Justice should never sleep, especially for politicians who did something far worse than Nixon.

“We are a nation of laws or we aren’t.”
It’s relative. Laws are applied to some and not to others. Depends on who you are, who you know, who protects you and/or how much you can spend.
Bottom line: We are not a nation of laws.
I'd have to say we're less of a nation of laws and more of a nation of lawyers diddling with the law.
EXACTLY correct ! The Dems would use every political tool they can to undermine any Republican at any time. When Durham is ready, the indictments or exonerations should be announced. It’s not a prosecutors or investigators job to be concerned with the political consequences of the results of the investigation for which WE THE PEOPLE have paid !!!
