On Friday’s broadcast of Fox News Radio’s “Guy Benson Show,” author, National Review Contributing Editor, Fox News Contributor, and former Assistant U.S. Attorney Andrew McCarthy stated that while former President Donald Trump does have ample reason to say he’s been singled out, the indictment against him is “a devastating document. If they can prove half of it, he’s toast.” And he believes more than half of what’s in the indictment can be proven.
McCarthy stated, [relevant remarks begin around 35:35] “It’s a devastating document. If they can prove half of it, he’s toast. And I sense that they can probably prove more than half of it, because a lot of it is recorded conversations, testimony from his lawyers, and that sort of thing. So, I think, Guy, part of the reason that he’s been hitting so hard at the idea that he’s being singled out — which he’s got a lot of basis to say that — part of the reason is his real defense here…is the Hillary Clinton precedent. And I’ve had to try to make this point a number of times today, selective prosecution defenses are very effective in terms of trying to argue to the prosecutors that they should not exercise their discretion to charge. Once they do charge, those defenses don’t help you very much.”

Coming from a known Trump opponent. McCarthy is wrong about this. He should be outraged rather than handicapping.
More made up leftist crap
She wasn’t using that stupid “private server” to get around the law. She was using it so the White House and Congress would have plausible deniability about what she was doing with it — even though they knew damn well what she was doing with it.
Can they prove that any of the documents are classified? Nobody has any way of knowing what he declassified as POTUS.
Wetting yourself over this, eh?
Wrong and wrong. The doj does not have the memo that purportedly was shown to the biographer. In other words there is no evidence. There’s no evidence anyway that he did something wrong. Further his attorneys didn’t quit it’s the venue.
He has never been right about one thing. But he is a perfect ‘expert’, along with Eddie Munster, for Fox.
You’re a lefty freak who doesn’t deserve a response. Infiltrating a conservative site with your leftist views is pathetic
They may change their mind after it’s to late.
It all depends on who’s side the military and police take
Exactly. He comes across like Mr knowledgeable and he’s a hateful leftist himself that the media just loves to utilize as their expert. He’s been exposed and nobody should give him the time of day
So true
Who cares what you think honestly
Feigned concern from a nevertrumper like yourself touting the views of another like minded person
Think national review writers like rich lowery or Jonah Goldberg
That’s our timber rattler
Anyone curious I can explain I’m detail
He’s hardly the only one btw
There are just more now
Wetting yourself over this, eh?

Anti Trump Republicans are happy right now, it’ll be a pyrrhic victory.
It’ll be hard to win national elections when your ceiling is 55 million votes.
I predict the next round of GOP polls will look bad for DeSanctimonious.
Aww you still think the swamp is going to let him win like they did in 2020 or any other Republican. They stole the election basically out in the open then like the school bully said “so.. what are you gonna do?” And no one did anything. Sure trump tried but he was blocked at every turn by both sides (that are on the same team)
If any Republican wins it will be because they allowed them too. That’s a republican you probably don’t want in office. They underestimated trump in 2016 that’s why Hillary was so pissed. The system failed her. I suspect they have been rigging elections for decades.
We are screwed. I think we have already passed the point of no return.
Re: 88 - you can’t argue the point. Not surprised.
Good luck.
Where specifically is McCarthy wrong in his analysis
Wrong in representing to us that every word in the indictment is true.
If prosecutors never lie, if every word in indictments is absolutely true and correct, why do we need judges and a jury?
Just hang or shoot defendants. No trial required.
Never forget Mike Nifong. He was not the first nor will he be the last. The events of today should make that evident.
Why is he wrong?
