Two Top Lawyers Say It’s Time For Trump To Resign


Two top lawyers say it is now time for President Donald Trump to negotiate a plea deal and resign from office in order to minimize his legal liability.

Both former U.S. Solicitor General Neal Katyal and former chief White House ethics lawyer Richard Painter reached the same conclusion yesterday after more evidence was disclosed making clear that Donald Trump was guilty of committing at least one felony — and probably several more.

Katyal wrote a lengthy piece for The New York Times that explained in detail the legal problems facing Donald Trump. He made clear that there were only two choices for prosecutors now: either indict him and charge him with the crimes, or turn over all of their evidence to the U.S. House of Representatives. And he also said that the Constitution would require the House to proceed with impeachment proceedings if prosecutors decline to indict the president. - PoliticusUSA

2. He is destroying our country, two more years and we see the end of Democracy

As much as I want him to face his crimes I want a country for my Grandchildren that is Democratic not Fascist

3. But will Republicans do the right thing?

We know Democrats will as more compelling evidence comes forth. Mike Pence is in deep shit too.

If Republicans refuse, then an indictment of a sitting President is the next recourse to proceed with criminal charges.

7. Is that a rhetorical question?

We all know the answer is no.

8. Of course it was.....

Just by chance, there may be a Republican who has a conscience. We will have to wait and see who steps up to the plate .

4. Yes, but I'm not sure Trump is capable of seeing that reality.

I once thought he'd resign when things got too tight for him, but I've abandoned that idea. I now believe he'll have to be dragged out of the White House, feet kicking at the floor, like a child in a tantrum. I wish he'd simply resign, but I no longer think he will.

5. And risk indictment?

He'll try to pardon himself before it's over. Just watch.

6. Do not resign in the next 3 weeks please.
