Why Yesterday’s DOJ Filing Suggests a Trump Indictment Is Coming
National review ^ | August 31, 2022 | ANDREW C. MCCARTHY

Former president Trump is likely to be charged with obstruction of justice and causing false statements to be made to investigators.

Trump apologists would surely counter that a not-so-average person named Hillary Clinton was not indicted for recklessly mishandling classified information, actually destroying thousands of government records, and making misleading statements (such as the laughable claim that she did not understand classified markings) in her FBI interview. Of course, the Biden Justice Department would not be very sympathetic to that analogy, and Trump would not exactly be arguing from a position of strength if his best defense were that someone else was not charged for comparably serious crimes. Trump’s better hope may be that he is more useful to Democrats as a badly compromised Republican presidential candidate than as a criminal defendant.

Why am I saying Trump is going to be charged? Because I'm an legal anal-yst who doesn't know what he is talking about and said the same about the Mueller Report.

I do believe the doj is building this manure pile to dump on Trump and the GOP just in time for the mid-terms.

They don’t care if anything sticks, as long as they can foul up GOP hopes in the elections.

Is it true that if Trump declares for 2024, they can’t bother him? I’ve seen suggestions of that here...

He takes a convenient tact. Hillary comparison not a strong argument, but in reality, it was Comey, Strzok, Page, Yates, and Hillary’s entire staff.

It wasn’t once - it was 10 times - and none of them had declassification powers - not one, and they still weren’t raided or charged.

So you think someone in the DoJ wanted to conduct a Federal Raid for his daughter’s diary - she left behind in a drug stupor?

Biden also was unmasking Trump people in the final days.

And Biden lied about it. Why would he lie?

Trump is the exception to all rules. I don’t put indictments past those monsters.

“Biden doesn’t have the brain power to order anything but ice cream.”

What gave you the idea he had a choice in the order?

Yes, he gets briefed on subjects he’s told his Chief of Staff he’s interested in, and they ask for a decision, he says Do it.

He told them he wanted out of Afghanistan didn’t he?
