There are TWO sub-issue currently in Trump's favor (not necessarily on the ethical arena, buy in the legal one.)
First, the "opinion" from the DOJ that a sitting president cannot be indicted...and
Second, that most of the Trump's "misdeeds" may escape prosecution given the various statutes of limitation that prescribe a time-limit for charges to be filed......
HOWEVER, the problem for Trump may arise if he is currently under a sealed-indictment that is revealed at a later date. That would then supplant or supersede the sealing date and would start the time limitation statute ONLY after the sealed indictment is revealed.
In other words, the years' length prescribed in the limitation statute may begin only when the indictment is UNsealed.....
Not good news for the Trump family.....
