FULL TITLE: Donald Trump, Jr. will be indicted by Mueller, former prosecutor says, and will help to ensnare his father
Donald Trump Jr. will be indicted and used by special counsel Robert Mueller to ensnare his father President Donald Trump, a former prosecutor predicted.
During a segment on MSNBC’s AM Joy on Saturday, Paul Butler, a former Department of Justice public corruption prosecutor, and host Joy Reid discussed the latest developments in Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and possible collusion between Trump’s campaign team and Moscow officials.
“Does Mueller have to indict Trump in order to put the proper coda at the end of the long symphony?” Reid asked the ex-prosecutor.
“Mueller is not going to indict Trump, because he’s going to follow the DOJ employee handbook, but he has leverage over the president in terms of Donald Trump, Jr.,” Butler explained. “We’ve seen Mueller use people’s kids to get to folks in the past. He could do this with Donald Trump, Jr.”
He continued: “Trump, Jr. went into the Senate Intelligence Committee, took an oath to tell the truth, and lied his butt off.”
“You think he will get indicted?” Reid asked.
“If Roger Stone and Michael Cohen get indicted for lying to the Intelligence Committee and Donald, Jr. lied, then he gets indicted too,” Butler responded.

Newsweak.
That was excellent, Sidney has a powerful brilliant mind which she has pointed in the right direction.
What you saw last night was from Levin’ last Sunday show
He should have a new show tonight on Fox News but I don’t see it in the queue
“maybe this is how the next civil war will start...”
Definitely - in a fanfare of stupendous tweets.
More wishful thinking by the Trump-hating Fake News media...
I’d like to punch Mueller while he’s eating.
>>None of this would have began without Jeff Sessions sitting silently by and passively watching others take control.

Deep State Plant, from the start. They must have had something really bad on him.
Using a child to “get” the parent is unethical, especially when it is so far out of the bounds of the original purpose of the investigation.
At that point, it becomes nothing but a vendetta.
//////////////////////////////////////////////////
We know they are on a vendetta but no one will report that in the media so the great unwashed uninformed American people haven’t heard it yet.
As many where I used to work said when I told them anything “If that were true then I would have seen a big story on CNN about it. It must be fake.”
Mueller’s rabid, wild eyed prosecutors would have to have a junior assistant look up “vendetta” for them. “Oh, I though it was dance step.”
This story and the fear behind it has been a topic on talk radio for almost a year. Its was going to be the trigger to set Trump off and make him can Mueller, followed by sobbing MSM idiots saying “Isn’t this, you people, isn’t this enough (sobbing then recovering) to remove Trump yet?
Mika and Shep Smith have both had pink lace hankies at the ready in case the story broke and their tears started welling up.
Madam President Hillary cover….
I don’t get it. You mean Hillary didn’t win?
Maybe they got the prototype 2020 cover set up by mistake.
God Forbid.
The Congress shall have Power to declare the Punishment of Treason, but no Attainder of Treason shall work Corruption of Blood, or Forfeiture except during the Life of the Person attainted.
This means that we don't punish the children for the crimes of their parents.
President Trump hasn't been charged with anything. Somebody needs to test this clause for "emanations from penumbras" to try to stop malicious prosecutors from going after children to squeeze the parent.
We need to make this tactic unconstitutional.

I forgot all about that from my long ago Political Science classes for my B.A.
One reason is who would sink so low as to have nerve enough to attempt that? Answer: Dems and Mueller, 2019.
Loophole: “We see this crime as separate from the ones of his father and will try the two separately.”
I would foolishly trust the decency and fairness of the American people to say “This is unfair. This is bullying and piling on. It’s unAmerican.”
BUT the media propaganda including that Time cover of a darkened, murky and sinister photoshopped image of Don, Jr. and “Red Handed” was from July 13, 2017 ( propaganda building from that long ago).
People now will merely say “Yeah, I saw on TV he’s just as much of a crook as his old man.” “Yeah, CNN did a story on that. Two more crooks caught by Mueller.”
And yet people WHO SHOULD KNOW much better post threads like this, a POS outlet REPORTING on a POS outlet.
IT diminishes the board when this garbage is posted.
Let the war begin.
Indict Javnka and maybe Trump can go back to being himself.
What about Hillary’s crimes? Why hasn’t she placed country first before her own hide?
I think exactly that when so many garbage posts are allowed on FR. The mods need to take action.
We’re not talking about hillary and her crimes and her disgusting family. We elected President Trump to practice a higher standard.
I don’t think so. If moral standard was the criteria, Trump never gets elected. Not with Stormy Daniels on front pages. Or his cheating on his wives.
The real reason Trump got elected is conservative people are fed up with Congress and the deep state. Even the evangelists came out to vote for him in spite of everything in the news.
We shall see indeed. Don’t get between a man and his son.
