Mueller Investigator Andrew Weissmann Calls For Biden DOJ To Prosecute Trump
Breitbart ^ | 11-25-2020 | Joshua Caplan

Posted on 11/25/2020 9:14:32 AM PST by blam

Andrew Weissmann, an MSNBC contributor and top deputy to former special counsel Robert Mueller, is calling on former Vice President Joe Biden to prosecute President Donald Trump, assuming he will be inaugurated in January.

Weissmann, in an op-ed for the New York Times that the next Department of Justice “should investigate Mr. Trump and, if warranted, prosecute him for potential federal crimes.”

“Mr. Trump’s criminal exposure is clear,” he said, adding that there is “ample evidence to support a charge that Mr. Trump obstructed justice,” in the Mueller probe, which cleared the president of any criminal wrongdoing between himself and the Russian government during his White House transition.

Weissmann then floated the possibility that President Trump could “pardon not just his family and friends before leaving office but also himself in order to avoid federal criminal liability.”

“In short, being president should mean you are more accountable, not less, to the rule of law,” he concluded.

Weissmann’s op-ed comes after the former Mueller prosecutor compared President Trump to Nazi Germany Dictator Adolf Hitler.

“For those people who say we should appease Trump, how did that approach go for Neville Chamberlain,” he wrote on Twitter.

In September, Weissmann seemingly threw Mueller under the bus by lamenting that they “could have done more” in their investigation into President Trump.

Guess me and about a million others were right.

I no longer respect these people as fellow Americans, at all in no way manner shape or form. They are evil and the enemy.

Relax, Andrew. New York has that possibility covered. They passed a law saying that they could prosecute President Trump and his family for ‘crimes’ committed in New York, regardless of any Federal pardon. And they elected an Attorney General who ran on the platform of “getting Trump and his family.” I’m sure she’ll be able to come up with something.

Wait...

1. Didn’t they ALREADY impeach him for so-called “obstruction of justice”??? Yep. They had NOTHING. Fail.

So now, it’s “potential Federal crimes”? Haven’t we been hearing this since 2015??? Again - NOTHING.

These people are evil and brain-dead.

They are not brain dead. Weissmann took out Andersen illegally and should have been disbarred.

if anyone thinks the left wants anything less than Trump destroyed and imprisoned and us subjugated to all of its whims..they are wrong.

************

Some conservatives who think they have liberal “friends” will find those same people silent, if not openly supportive of, political persecutions against ALL conservatives and Trump supporters. Make no mistake they Left wants revenge. Everyone one of them.

Wait just a minute. I thought that if Trump asked his DOJ to do something, he was using the Department as his personal lawyer, or he was interfering with legal proceedings and/or investigations.

How can Joe Biden do this and get away with it? Then again, how did Barack Obama get away with it? Oh yeah, Democrat...

Working in Hollywood, I met De Niro 2 years ago ( Unfortunately) , and I was the only one in the room who didnt shake his hand. Just stared at him with a smirk..he knew I was going to kick his ass if he said something stupid.

Leftards are pathetic.
