He wants absolute power to be the judge, jury, and executioner, where he makes the DOJ into the DOTJ for himself as a weapon to use against all those that oppose him.

that he would have faked or come up w/ some 'fake' charges to charge both of them on too. The mere fact that this happened should be enough to impeach him.

I am outraged at his dictatorship approach and king baby thinking....As I understand this order, tRump didn't actually impliment the order to investigate/ prosecute Hillary and Comey...he wanted to 100 % but was talked out of this by his WH lawyers...especially McGahan....so, my struggle is this....if he did not impliment/issue as president the orders then where is the crime?

....your hiring a hit-man to take out your spouse who, ultimately, doesn't do it. Ordering the murder is the crime.

tRump didn't order it....if he had and DOJ refused then that would fit..

So, is all our chatter about this " almost" order about how tRump may try this via Whitaker????

order prosecution on Trump and does this current controversy of Trump ordering prosecution on Hillary and Comey immunize him from that?
