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.

If moral standard was the criteria, Trump never gets elected

I disagree. He was elected because he was honest about being an imperfect man, that as a husband, father and grandfather, he wanted to make the world a better place. He was about putting the US and the traditional values we hold dear as his priority. hillary was in it for herself. President Trump wins for the moral standard, no question.

I did not know PDJT Twitted about his affair with Stormy in a burst of honesty while he was married to Melania. I never heard him posting anything about his extra-marital affairs with his first 2 wives either.

Nope, PDJT is not a perfect human being. We elected him to do something about the illegal immigrant invasion, build the wall, tale action on chronic & ugly trade deficits with China, strengthen the military weakened by Obama, get out of perpetual wars in the middle-east, attack ISIS with more force than Obama did, reduce tensions with N Korea and Russia, AND APPOINT CONSERVATIVES TO COURTS.

So no, we did not elect him because he is a honest, moral man. We elected him because we figured his agenda was more important than his morality.

I would never want him as part of my family, or to marry my daughter, but I'd be happy to have him as my financial planner or CEO of the family business.

It’s frightening to think what the desperate Deep State would do to stay in power.

"...Leftist masturbation fantasy..."

That term describes the Left's obsession better than nearly anything else.

Just try it Mueller— you have NOTHING. Nothing at all— and are personally at risk of being indicted yourself— you and your cadre of Weissmaniacs— sociopathic liberal puritans in the pay of the globalist NWO. You’re done, Mueller, finito. And Weissmann? He is going to get his head handed to him. His actions border on megalomania— including those against Merrill Lynch and Enron. A freaking lunatic- and self righteous.

FBI Director Wray answers to Trump— and has his own “splainin” to do about the excessive nature of the arrest of Roger Stone.

All in good time. Politically timed for the most, the most damage, and brilliant outcome.

That argument might encourage Dems to ask was that stain on Monica’s dress a process crime or illegal?

The purpose of the talk was only indirectly about adoptions. If I remember correctly, we were talking about sanctions for Russian interference in our election process. In turn they were going to stop allowing American adoptions of Russian children if the sanctions went forward. So it was about the possible Russian role in tampering with our Democracy and their tit for tat behavior in hurting children and potential parents.
