“be an indictment of an elected official. “

He is President now; the charges won’t stick.

Just another FREAKIN’ smoke screen. Meanwhile, Trillions are being stolen from Americans.

That's a shallow pool to pick from. Not many elected Republicans in this state. Almost none in Chicago.

Yeah most likely someone attended a prayer breakfast or maybe they hung an American Flag in their office!

Are there any Republicans left in Chicago?

Based on statistical probability alone, I'm going to have to go with a Dem. But, you're probably right. If there's one Republican left, that's who will be indicted. It's the Chicagah Way.
