That is some of the weakest stuff I've seen from an academic in a long time. Weak soup. Yeah, don't try someone for crimes they've committed because of their position. That's goes against tradition. That's some serious bull####. While there are arguments that you can't charge a sitting a President with a crime while they are in office, once the President leaves they are just another private citizen subject to the law like everyone else. If they committed a crime, they are open game. If they are corrupt as Trump, they deserve to swing if it should come to that. Anyone who says Trump shouldn't be pursued criminally, and uses the good of the nation as an excuse, wasn't paying attention when Ford pardoned Nixon for the very same reason. Screw morons like this. Burn trump and his criminal enterprise family to the ground as a warning to anyone else who thinks they will be able to get away with similar stuff in the future.
