NY AG James: Even With Pardon Trump ‘Cannot Avoid Justice’ New York State
New York State Attorney General Letitia James said Tuesday on ABC’s “The View” that President Donald Trump could not “avoid justice” in New York even with a possible maneuver like stepping down before January 20 and having a then-sworn-in President Mike Pence pardon him.


James said, “The vast majority of legal scholars have indicated that he cannot pardon himself. What he could do is step down and allow the vice president, Vice President Pence, to pardon him. In all likelihood, I suspect he’ll pardon his family members, his children, his son-in-law, and individuals in his administration, as well as some of his close associates. And then I suspect at some point he’ll step down and allow the vice president to pardon him.”

Pardoned for what crimes exactly? Arent pardons for those convicted? So they know hes guilty of something and will certainly be convicted. Thats amazing.

 

[Calculon]

Dumb ass doesn't even understand the laws she's supposed to uphold.

Aren’t there laws against making threats under the “color of law”? If so, then she should be tried under those statutes.

 

[Plater1]

She is just preaching to the uninformed leftist. Once Trump leaves office and retires in Florida there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING she can do except whine like a bitc.........

I missed where the current sitting President has been convicted of something. I’m sure I’m not the only one.

Of course! Because this has nothing to do with the law, it is just about the Left punishing disagreement.

Honestly this is what politics have become. A series of reprisals against the other side. It's this sort of shit that is pushing the country towards violence and hatred.

 

[Saltwater60]

What crimes are they speaking of?

 

[4WHLDRFTN]

"crimes" the made up ones

 

[Pissed Off Patriot]

The reason the left has to make up crimes against Trump is because they can't charge him with what they consider the real crime, and that crime is beating Hillary.

Folks there is much that she can do. From what I have read in the past a federal pardon has no effect on any charges a state can bring .She can make Trumps life a living hell.

i believe that is the definition of "malicious prosecution".
If that eventuality occurs, I figure it gives Trump legal recourse to sue New york State for whatever is left in the budget.

 

[Jsmegs77]

Whatever the legal definition, it’s certainly an attempt to use the criminal justice system for personal gain. What Dem AG or prosecutor wouldn’t jump at the chance to have been the one to convict Trump? In their pea brains that’s history book material.

I'm surprised that skank hasn't entered NY into the Texas Supreme court filing. Just so she could bolix things up and cause chaos.

Remind me, what law did he break again?

 

[SonOfSun]

Arent pardons for those convicted?

Not necessarily. Take Nixon for example. He never went to trial but was pardoned.

 

[Deplorable Me]

Jokes on her, hell will be full of democrats.
