But as Trump talks about running, the four sources say, he’s leaving confidants with the impression that, as his criminal exposure has increased, so has his focus on the legal protections of the executive branch.
The powers of the presidency would offer a welcome pause to the various civil suits and criminal investigations now hanging over Trump. It’s unclear whether the Justice Department will charge Trump in connection with fomenting the January 6 insurrection, but winning the White House would be extremely helpful to him. Department policy forbids the prosecution of a sitting president, effectively insulating Trump from any federal charges for another four years.
Trump’s most recent legal headaches stem from his role in inciting the Jan. 6 insurrection. Capitol and Washington, D.C. Metropolitan police officers have sued Trump over the physical and emotional damages they suffered during the rioting. The former president also faces two separate suits from Democratic members of Congress.
And in New York, attorney general Letitia James is pursuing a civil investigation into whether the Trump Organization lied about the value of its assets.
I hate to say this but Trump if you're doing this just to get back in you'll have more problems to deal with. You can't run away from the damages thats been done. Wouldn't that make you look less trustworthy if it were true and you tried to get back in?
Where is the presumption of innocence? Opinions are misleading an already brainwashed left base as it is! News is no longer reported in this near communist country and the most responsible of this nightmare is the media and liberals!!
Notice the news agencies in magazines like Rolling Stone are only concentrating on damning Trump and the Republicans where is any negative articles about the Democrats? You could at least pretend to be neutral lol
I honestly hope someone, hopefully it's AG Garland, at the TheJusticeDept reads this....
i remember when rolling stone was a magazine about music. not dishing out partisan drivel.
Sorry but just because he's supposedly running doesn't mean he's free from prosecution.
So they are electing crooks to keep them out of prison. What has this country become?
It’s his only move! Haven’t you all seen all of the other ones?
who owns you? Soros? Because why would president Trump run when he never conceeded and won massively. Running away from the law? That's hilarious.
Well that's asinine
I know they hurt you Left you , and booted you. And they blame you when you tried to give what they asked for. Now they complain. Now there's nothing and no way to get it moving forward again. I'm really discussed many times. You know what they say. I don't speak no English.
Well what are the other best options?
There’s a minimum age on being President. Why isn’t there an age limit?
I hope they put his ass in jail for a long time
Geo_Is_Pissed Yes. The best reason to elect someone to be president is to help him evade prosecution. 🙄🙄🙄
Keep throwing nonsense probes at him so the remaining 10 liberals have something to snark over. Im sure you will be silent after each unsuccessful probe and litigation and just announce the next one.
He’s damaged goods… even for the GOP
What bad did he do in his four years? Other then expose politicians and work for the citizens of our country. We have enough oil in our country to last 200 years if they'd open the pipelines.
How many ways are you gonna Tweet the same Fucking Story?
Stick with it. It's been seven years but you're getting to close to nabbing him. And your only decent clicks for PenskeMedia.
Media finally gets a break
