, both on the civil and the criminal side," Perry said.The most developed case that could ensnare Trump might be out of the Southern District of New York. It stems from the federal prosecution against Michael Cohen, Trump's onetime personal attorney and fixer.
"Ordinarily, had the target not been a sitting president with immunity, I think 'Individual 1,' as he's referred to, very likely would have been prosecuted along with his aider and abettor, Michael Cohen," Perry said.For one, prosecuting a former president would be politically fraught, particularly in a country as divided as this one. The decision on whether to do so at the federal level will fall to the new administration.
There's also the possibility that Trump could attempt to pardon himself before leaving office. The president has asserted he has that power but said in the past he didn't feel he needed to use it because he argues he hasn't broken any law. "That looks like it's the most likely place where he could have some criminal liability around taxes, for example," Wehle said.The case has been tied up for months as Trump fights a grand jury subpoena that Vance issued to Trump's personal accounting firm. Vance's office is seeking eight years of Trump's tax returns and financial records.
Yippee!
NPR how is that fundraising going this year?
He can be pardoned from Federal crimes, but states can prosecute him.
🎶Waaah, waaah, that's the sound of a rtump working on a chain gang🎶
It’s about time. Lock him up!
And he owes $400,000,000 that he has no way to pay!
kristyshl How about 20 years for attempted election tampering/sedition.
So if he's done all this bad illegal stuff why didn't the impeachment work? Only way to get him out was a phony election! I bet Trump will go to jail about the same time Hillary and Hunter do... Never!
Face his corruptions And lock his ass. Bring charges for those that have died of covid 19. He knew this and sat on his ass!!!!
Trump continues to increase his chances of getting prosecuted. Did he try to do a pro quid duh! With Georgia officials?🇺🇸👀🦟 He is so far gone is pathetic ?
Hell yeah. Ur going down. 🤡🤡🤡🤡 and ur family.😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷😷
Let me guess the same crooked federal authorities that allowed illegal invasion of privacy violations on Donald Trump. I’m sure Trump is real scared. This is just yet another smoke screen and scare tactic. Try something new you jokes we are onto your game.
Isn’t NPR supposed to be unbiased?
Can’t wait!!!!
That's why he's doing all this bullshit.
Why?
This is why he wants to overturn the election so badly. It’s not like he ever enjoyed being president or doing the job. He’s just panicked about the dismal life he has ahead of him.
realDonaldTrump owe student loans to pay off for the disabilities which he rejected them to work in a white-collar. Favoritism is discrimination against its power of abuse. Deaf ones must have white-collar jobs when they have a college degree! CancelStudentDebt
Father God is in charge and he will not forsake Donald J. Trump. What we mortals want and what Father God intends is two different things. So, open your eyes and hearts and trust in our Lord for we are right now living his works.
Best news I have heard lately!
LOCK HIM UP!
Lock him up! Lock him up!
Keep pushing and you’re going to see the right the sleeping conservatives RISE!🇺🇸👊🏼
Once again our tax money is hard at work. Can you direct me to your story on voter fraud? The one with an actual investigative reporter.
Lock him up!
Another thing is sure. Half of this country stands behind him so He won’t be convicted of any crime. No popular politician ever is
LOL NOW GO REPORT SOME REAL NEWS LEMMINGS
So interesting to read the ignorant rants of liberals in here. And they say they’re the educated ones. Those emotions are getting the best of ya.
puristology The clock is ticking
'Ordinarily, had the target not been a sitting president with immunity, I think 'Individual 1,' as he's referred to, very likely would have been prosecuted along with his aider and abettor, Michael Cohen,' Perry said.
And here we have more FAKE news ,not going to happen!
Fake News 😂😂
Nothing will happen. He has firms for everything. To prove he willfully and knowingly broke any law will be impossible to prove. I hope he gets to live a grand life he deserves
We believe in the integrity of a proper and fair justice system. We are confident in the presumptive Biden Elected Administration to diversify and clean our present legal system to create a better US for all.
NYC is waiting for him!!!! 😡😡Address is 100 Centre Street!!!! 🤣
This is why, I think, that he's scratching so vigorously to stay in the W.H. he's afraid to leave!
Trump should have been charged, indicted before 2016.
National Public Radio let me remind you of something. We the taxpayers of the United States of America fund your broadcasts. What that means is you as publicly owned check your political views at the door and do not pick sides. If you can't maybe its time to shut you down.
Defund NPR. A Democrat super pac.
This man is fighting for all Americans. He's the strongest person I know of. His family stands by no matter the battle. Only a good father gets that devotion. Keep fighting the good fight President Trump.
What country will trump pick to exile himself to after he leaves office?
There will be dancing in the streets on Inauguration Day!
MsMariaT
Lock him up. Lock up his whole family too. Not only are they criminals but they ruined this country. They destroyed it.
FUNNY OBAMA AND HILLARY HAS SO IF YOU GO AFTER HIM YOU HAD BETTER GO AFTER THEM OTHERWISE IT WILL BE THROWN OUT
Where is the evidence that substantiates this story?
So how does **Biden** escape? I don’t get it ? newsmax FoxNews marklevinshow DonaldJTrumpJr EricTrump IvankaTrump IngrahamAngle marthamaccallum TuckerCarlson seanhannity SteveHiltonx
Can't wait to see Trump in a pair of handcuffs
Yes ANOTHER situation where they're INVESTIGATING Trump hoping to find something, ANYTHING with which to charge him?
They are coming after everyone. They can’t even win with Grace...it’s going to get very Ugly...
In the event that President Trump does not win this election, the LEFT is already going after him as a private citizen to try to ensure he does not get the chance in 2024 to get back in office and undo all the damage the LEFT will do to this country in the next 4 years.
HURRRRAY,
fake election voter fraud by Dominion voter systems
No, no he doesn’t. Good try with this story. NOBODY BUYS THIS BULLSHIT ANYMORE 😂😂😂
It's about time!
Ironic that the person who convinced millions to chant 'Lock her up' towards Hillary Clinton is now in danger of getting locked up himself.
Media stop hating on Trump. What's your problem. He is the best president ever at economy and foreign policy. Just because he does stuff a little differently y'all freak out. 🖕
Let’s do this! Prison time for Don the Con!
Lock him up.
Well, must be true if is saying it.
This is nothing but more lies and propaganda to try and steer the public away from the Voting fraud during the presidential election . This is a red flag .NPR is another Fake News Media source .
Why do we give one cent to you anti-American fake news hackers! Abolish NPR!
I can hardly wait to seeHis fraudulent taxes and every other sleazy thing that he’s covered up
LockHimUp
Trump will win, biden is a bideu, piss
Rightfully so
Good
We know it's all bs just like the unfounded,unproven accusations of the last 4 years. Trump has been investigated to the ends of the earth even rectal probed looking for anything they could pin on him only to make all those involved look like the liars and fools they are.
THIS. IS. WHY. Trump can’t concede defeat. His future is grim and even he knows it.
For what?
YES! Keep stroking your audience's bloodlust, whet their appetite for Schadenfreude , as they keep their RabidBeasts chained for a while... When we see the beasts, we will know we won. And then, we will CleanUp. Until then, keep up the work .
fakenews
Biden should be charged with Sedition for his activities in China and Ukraine. Facts were held up by the election. Now they will come out. Can’t wait for the FBI perp walk.
False news
Shhhhhhhhh! Stop pointing this out
What for saving lives i didn't know that was a crime or for putting Americans first 🤔 please I served 11 years with The USAF when ever there was a disaster in the world no matter who needed our help we have been there for all but as soon as threat was gone it was fu
Too bad you’ll have to wait another 4 years for any of that to happen.
He will be president after all this no matter how much you lie and try to frame him for something he didn’t do. You been fact checked liars
💔😔
One tweet and President Trump will have a few hundred thousand armed militia at his service with in the hour. Only place he’s going in January golfing In Florida
That will be great new. I’ll follow enthusiastically.
Don’t you find the media’s vendetta against Trump pathetic? It’s almost as if Trump was exposing everyone for who they are so Dems and the media teamed up to attack, because we all know the best defense is a good offense.
NPR fake news
Yeah just like the last four years, you idiots have been saying this b/s. Report something real for a change.
And he'll no longer have Barr to support him.
67 indictments coming 1/21
LOCK HIM UP!!!
realDonaldTrump IvankaTrump DonaldJTrumpJr
He doesnt want to give up protection from prosecution and he is raising $$ . His supporters are being fooled. They are blind to him. HOW AND WHY I DONT UNDERSTAND!
Orange is the new Trump
In the end he won’t be able to shoot someone in the middle of Park Ave ,he will have no special privileges,no one is above the law!!
Of course. That's exactly why he doesn't want to leave office. Immunity and this concept that a sitting President cannot be criminally prosecute only fuel his power grab.
😂😂😂
Fuck yeah
Is Edward Norton getting paid for his story?
Fake news
Oh boy, you all are in for a rude awakening. Get ready MSM. NOTHING CAN STOP WHAT IS COMING !!!!
Well that’s a shame.
realDonaldTrump could care less about any case you have against him bring it!!! he's going to fight for this country & he's going to win and we're not going to sleep until he's back in that chair the obstacles I faced in this life he can certainly beat this
Trumps prison 2021 👍👍👍👍
But, the war criminals just cruising on through, huh? How does that work? 🤔
If they put former p Presidents in jail... Obama would have been locked up by now. Who is Barry Soetoro?
NPR... a communist supporting boondoggle that will disappear during Trump's 2nd term. Good riddance.
Not sure I’ve read anything this week that’s given me more joy than this!
Oh, how sweet it would be to see this disgrace locked in handcuffs!!! God, the possibility is almost orgasmic! Lol!
When did shed its disguise as a bastion of journalistic integrity and become a bullhorn for the Democratic Party?
WATCH OANN (One America News Network) That is if you want to truth the mainstream, politically controlled media doesn't want you to know. The truth about what is really going on with the election and the extreme amount of proof of fraud by the Democratic party.
Stop being so mean..no law enforcement authority will never pressure president Trump when he leaves office..he's done a great service to the justice system and for all law enforcement authority.. stop being so mean!
And, one thing is certain: When the election is over and Trump remains President, funding for NPR will drop to zero.
I don’t see how he isn’t going to flee. Yikes.
This the entire reason he wants to destroy the Republic
Then the war will start
NPR another bullshit ass news source who I hope goes under once Trump is out of office!
I can’t wait, seeing his fat ass in an orange jumpsuit will really make me happy!
Lock him up. Bannon too.
That’s why he’s holding us hostage
Good karma finally going to get him, he deserves prison and his orange suit will match his orange face
I can't wait!
finding so hard to believe his supporters are willing to finance his blunders. now that’s a cult.
Why don't you report on Biden lawsuits and scandals as well? So that we, the 'public', can be informed and educated on all sides so that we can come to our own decisions. Seems only right or is NPR biased and one sided? And this is why I won't make donations... not that you care.
Justice, I hope.
It’s about time! And we probably don’t know half of all the ilegal things he has done!
NY has its hands full with DuhDopio and more than a full bucket to attend to with the economy.
No president should have decided facto immunity.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
No one sees a problem w having a criminal president 👀🤣🏆
I’m waiting for him to have the give his DNA in the Glass case , that’ll make him a proven rapist . To bad the statute of limitations ran out I’d rather see him convicted .
I'm disgusted to know that the president paid less in taxes than my teen who works part time at speedway.
Of course. Do you think the Nazis will not frame up a quick case against him ? They're coming after us all. Be prepared to fight for your life, Patriots
Joe Biden may not want this to dominate a news cycle once in office - YET, Trump & his family of grifters, along with several top level enablers have been trampling the Constitution and will need to be held accountable if we don't want a repeat. SDNY may be the first step.
Games over bye bye Trump
What happens to his yearly Presidential salary if he is convicted of crimes after leaving office? Please tell me that taxpayers will not be paying him $400,000+ per year while he sits in prison.
Defund NPR
Which is why he is forming the PAC and will use it for personal funds after he leaves the whitehouse. Essentially living off of his supporters before he’s found guilty.
Wasn’t this old man chanting “lock her up?” I wouldn’t let him within 30 feet of my daughter. The irony and hypocrisy will be epic.
Game over
And this is the sole reason for the whole voter-fraud hoax, he MUST stay in office to stay out of jail. And he will do whatever it takes to make that happen, no matter the cost for America
We must make sure that becoming president was the worst thing that ever happened to Donald Trump.
I'm positive this is the complete, uncensored story accurately representing the facts 😉
Hillary ?
and should never have enjoyed defacto immunity
That's exactly why he don't want to leave......
It might be a lot bigger than his taxes. Biden’s State Dept will need to assess THOROUGHLY the damage done to our relationships & intelligence capabilities. They’ll likely find stuff Trump et al did that can’t be ignored in the name of “unity.” 1/2
Lock him up!!! 😂
By by Trump
Thank you for just saying Donald Trump instead of President Trump!
NO PEACE FOR THE WICKED. Can’t wait to sew this man behind the bars for the rest of his life for what he’s done to this country, he deserves to go to jail. IF they did that to Bill Cosby this one has done more horrible things than Dr. Cosby and he’s still walking free
It's the end.
Jail trump. Covid death sucks
Why do you think he’s fighting so hard to stay in office. He doesn’t want to go to prison!
Well thank God we won’t be used to keep him from it
LOCK HIM UP
May the lawsuits fall like abundant rain
Yes bye bye
Lock him up
Yeah
January 21st.....tick,tock......
SheeGhee Law of karmar
On this case I will vote Trump 2021 for prison.
Jan 21, 2021 can't come soon enough.
He should be locked after this week alone!
My dad is convinced he’s going to resign and the last min and Pence is going to pardon him. We shall see what happens!
Why do you hate realDonaldTrump so much? In fact, your hate for realDonaldTrump seems much greater than you love for our country. Why?
And it couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy!
Nothing but more Fake News !
Biden4Prison
Time to pay for your deeds ma dude
Cannot wait to see him in court.
Good. Mueller’s indictments are waiting.
We definitely need Rudy on this‼️ please, ask him to wipe off the shoe polish and to bring actual evidence this time. So far, every judge has tossed every presentation for lack of, well, reality 🤡
If he’s convicted of a felon, he can’t run for office. Not even dog catcher.
Beautiful end to a long week for our election poll workers! Thank You All You have been in Our prayers for safety and health! Many Thanks!!!
If possible, voters of several states should launch a class action lawsuit against him for attempting to disenfranchise them, given that he knew he had no evidence of fraud.
NPR stop your nonsense please. NPR radio used to be good ! What happened ?
Now do biden
Targeting political rivals? Check.
Long overdue for DonaldTrump and his family. LockThemAllUp
People out here thinkin he’s gonna do 20+ in Folsom or Angola 🙄 I’d love to see it, but when has ANYONE like him received the kind of sentence any of us “Regular Americans” would get? 😒
TRUMP'S, Enemy of the state!
Lock him up
LOCK realDonaldTrump UP!
Couldn't happen to a more deserving person.
And that is the obvious reason he is willing to sell this country to the devil. He does not care about anybody but himself. All he is trying to do is what a cornered animal does, and now we have to cage that animal.
Hope he enjoys 3 hots and a cot.
LockHimUp
Cuff him Dan-o!
Nor should ANY sitting president have de facto immunity, period.
where is your evidence?
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy.
He want to escape for all those issues.
What a shame. And what about donnie jr, eric, Laura, ivanka, jared, and 'the BEST is YET to come!'?
No one should be above the law.
Yes!!
That son of a bitch deserves the gallows
This is why he won't concede. It's going to get much worse.
Awesome. Such a loser.
He’s made his own future brainless!!
New York officials? Read = Mafia
Yay!
Teflon Don, no more!
if we dont go forward with indictments against trump then the future is lawlessness
One of american history’s greatest losers
Maybe Trump will be too busy with his own trials to be involved in politics.
When will you start covering the corruption?! Perhaps do your All investigations on dominion
The criminal enterprise of Donnie Trump...
🍿
That’s probably why he isn’t leaving.
Do not pardon him. The Country will not heal by pardoning him. There will be more bickering and arguing forever. And there will be more like him. He and future would-be fascists need to see and take the consequences.
About time.
Trump will pardon himself. winning
former Presidents don't go to jail
realDonaldTrump Tick Tock Bitch! Rikers or Leavenworth. Preference?
YAY!! Happy happy days. I pray justice is served.
good...he's put US at so much risk turnabout is more than fair play
Let’s be clear. There is no law that protects a sitting president. It’s just a rule that the DOJ made up.
“a man that is very used to using the legal system to his advantage.' That’s not a reassuring statement about our legal system or the outcome of any cases against him.
ginatharris asking for regular citizens who MUST pass background checks How in the world of NationalSecurity did this person and his crimefamily get clearance to run for elected office - the highest office of the land with nuclear codes and all? CriminalClearance is real if you are white!
Can someone tell me: Can you actually pardon yourself if you haven't yet been accused or convicted of a crime. Inst that the definition of a pardon. Pre-pardon can't be a real thing can it?
That’s why he’s stalling! He knows he’s done for.
LockHimUp
No pardon, no immunity, no mercy. TrumpCrimeFamily
what’s going to happen is on Jan 18 or 19 Trump will declare “what the Dems did to him gives him no other option but to resign effective immediately”. He ignites hate, doesn’t have to welcome Biden & Pres. Pence will pardon him from all future prosecution
Can't wait until he's arrested.
Gotta buy some popcorn and save the date for 1/20.
Just one more reason why he should never have been president. Get the criminal out of the White House.
Trump foundation looks like a money laundering operation.
One thing is certain, this man has been relentlessly hounded with unsubstantiated accusations which we're all deemed false. Why don't YOU, NPR, minimally look into the Dominion Voting Machines?
😍
Well...we already know he looks good in orange.
I wonder why he's hesitant to leave the WH?
Of course. He's obviously not fighting to remain president despite losing the election out of concern for the good of country
This is why he is trying to rig the recount in his favor
Every friggin person this side of the great decide knows his history Alleged rape in NY Tax evasion Election interference Quid pro quo Bribery C'mon..he needs to be in prison..not the Peoples's house..
I think watching this go down will be appropriate retribution for having to watch him try to be a president for the last four years.
LOCK HIM UP LOCK HIM UP LOCK HIM UP
LOCK HIM UP ... the irony is thick as peanut butter
Time of reckoning for trump.
Well deserved, he may be the most crooked US citizen by far!
Almost gives him motive to do ANYTHING to stay in the whitehouse.
Prosecute and jail him STAT
Party like it’s 2021!! 🙌🏼🎉💙🇺🇸♥️
I’ll believe it when I see it
With his list of crimes he should never have had immunity. Show us the law that says he does. It's only a justice department 'policy.'
I'm looking forward to serving my President, JOE BIDEN! He does not need to ask what I can do for my country, I will do anything I can for my country and the real President Elect!
Did you hear that realDonaldTrump
Which is why he's having a meltdown. He never cared about American. He only cared about staying out of prison.
The Trump Train will depart the station on January 20th 2021.
he’s fully aware
Yes karma time and open your damned taxes and pence too he didn't disclose his either every damn one of the trumpers need investigation s Moscow Elaine his beard chou she's rotten like him and their marriage is obviously a ruse tangled webs
And there’s been no coverup. It’s been right in front of us.
His supporters are talking about his second term as if it is a certainty, but first he must be convicted, sentenced and serve his first term before we can talk about a second term.
🍿 can’t wait
And let’s pray it sends him to the pokey well before the threat of returning in 2024
Nobody likes ME !!! Wah wah
Are you scared, realDonaldTrump? You should be.
Which appears to have been his primary reason for seeking reelection. Given his bunker mentality since losing the election he clearly wasn't interested in governing any more.
And now people know why he doesn’t want to recognize the result of the election...
It’s almost as if he knows this, and is willing to destroy democracy just to save his fat can.
Praying for a perp walk.
Good luck persecuting a political enemy. It will backfire & Biden will be impeached in 2023.
