Chris Matthews Fantasy: RICO Prosecution of Trump Aides
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 11/06/2017 5:00:03 PM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

Chris Matthews has a new thrill up his leg . . .

On this evening’s Hardball, Matthews fantasized the possibility of Trump campaign aides being hit with RICO charges. RICO is the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, adopted by Congress in 1970 for purposes of combating the Mafia.

MSNBC “terrorism analyst” Malcolm Nance got the ball rolling by suggesting that Trump aides might have been paid Russian agents. Matthews then upped the ante:

“That’s when I begin to think RICO. And a RICO charge. Anyway, and running a criminal operation, that they’re all doing it together.”

As long as you’re fantasizing, Chris, don’t stop with RICO for the Trump people. Go for treason and the death penalty!

Ping to Liberal Media Criticism list.

My pleasure, as always. Some guys fantasize about Kate Upton. Others think of RICO charges against Trump aides. ;-)

The WaPo article that Chris is getting tingly over is a big nothingburger. I won't link to it, but there's not even a hint of evidence that the Russian collusion nonsense is anything but a fever dream of the MSM.

The real prosecution should be against those who gave us the Kenyanesian Usurpation.

Crissy has Trump confused with Hellary, Bill, and the DNC.
