Trump Lawyers Argue He Cannot Be Criminally Investigated

An investigation may expose how many millions Trump has made from his Trump Tower and Condo Complex in Istanbul. He makes nothing in Syria. Also, how much has Turkey spent on his hotel facilities in DC.

Trump defenders have chosen to be blind. They are defending a man who attempted to make a legal filing where he has tried to claim that he cannot be investigated. He has said that Article 2 gives him power to do whatever he wants. They can't see the problem with that.

Trump Lawyers Argue He Cannot Be Criminally Investigated
The president’s legal team is trying to block a subpoena seeking his tax returns, claiming that any criminal investigation of Mr. Trump is unconstitutional.
Published Sept. 19, 2019 Updated Sept. 23, 2019

Lawyers for President Trump argued in a lawsuit filed on Thursday that he could not be criminally investigated while in office, as they sought to block a subpoena from state prosecutors in Manhattan demanding eight years of his tax returns.

Taking a broad position that the lawyers acknowledged had not been tested, the president’s legal team argued in the complaint that the Constitution effectively makes sitting presidents immune from all criminal inquiries until they leave the White House.

Trump Is Accused of Inventing Tax Return ‘Privilege’ to Block Subpoena
The Manhattan district attorney’s office on Monday accused President Trump and his lawyers of trying to invent a “new presidential ‘tax return’ privilege” by arguing that Mr. Trump should not have to comply with a subpoena seeking eight years of his personal and corporate returns.

Trump Is Accused of Inventing Tax Return ‘Privilege’ to Block Subpoena

So which is it, can't be investigate or tax return privilege.

The simplest theory is usually the best, the subpoena is overly broad and should be quashed. The DA has no reason to request so many years of returns when he is supposedly investigating something that transpired in 2016. That said, a subpoena can't be used for a fishing expedition, they would have to demonstrate probable cause to get even the 2016 returns.

.

Except it doesn't.

Ah, yes. The Man Who Would Be King cannot be investigated for criminal wrongdoing. Only in a banana republic. No one is above the law, and the orange whore only presides over the executive branch, not the entire government, and Congress has an oversight function to keep him in line.

There is a huge difference between Congress having "oversight" of a President...and a Congress attempting to bully a President with nonstop legal attacks and investigations simply because they don't like his politics! This has ZERO to do with someone being above the law...this is all about a Party of Poor Losers who didn't win an election and have dec Even ided to subvert the will of the people by an impeachment of a sitting President!

He is not in the Oval Office by "the will of the people." He did not receive the majority of the popular vote and is in office only by a fluke in the Electoral College. Even if he were to be in office by "the will of the people," this would also apply to President Obama, and yet the minority treated him horribly and he was obstructed and insulted every hour of his presidency.

I think Donald is merely arguing for the same rights as already given Obumma and Little Joey Biden. After all, Obama was alleged to have done many things from live with an avowed Weather Underground terrorist and enemy of the USA, to defrauding the American people in a well-planned lie in order to push through a takeover of 1/6th the U.S. economy, to lying about his birth and covering the evidence making him an illegal and illegitimate president! Yet he was never criminally investigated.

And now we have Biden who abused his position as VP of the USA to swing deals forcing foreign governments to land lucrative deals for his son. No criminal investigation there, either. In fact, they are going after the person trying to investigate the matter just as they fired the original persecutor who tried.

No matter. Now the NYS democrats are trying to use a liberal democrat judge to force Trump to hand over tax papers so they can again try to dig up some sort of leverage to use to sway the 2020 election, just as the Democrats tried to do in 2016 with Hillary and her Steele Dossier.

That is all the democrats do. And never are they investigated. Sounds like the mob.

But even if somehow eventually Trump is forced to turn over tax records, you'll never know what was in them as they will be protected under New York State Grand Jury Case Law.

That is, unless the democrats lie and steal and break the laws there as well.

The allegations against Obama and Biden did not come from credible sources. They have come mostly from conspiracy theorists, like the dumb birthers, including the orange whore, who never realized that Hawaii is a state and try to foist off cheap rumors spread by political hacks as credible.

How do you know that the judge is a "liberal democrat"? We don't. What difference would it make if the judge was a "conservative republican"?

Grand jury deliberations are protected, but his tax records will come out in any indictments, and trial. And the orange whore might himself make portions of them public, by virtue of his big mouth that his handlers can't seem to keep shut.

Nah. But the thing is, Trump might not make it to the election. Trump has pissed off the white "christians" by taking troops out of Syria.

 

[Meathead]

It's pitiful that so many people take this as just a game of partisan politics. It is way beyond political differences. This guy is truly a threat to the basic institutions and functioning of our government. He is trying to make himself a law unto himself in complete disregard of our Constitution and system of checks and balances, owing nothing to anyone, even though a president is an employee of the American People, not our king.

You need to cut down on CNN.

We don't elect our President by a majority of the popular vote...we do it with the Electoral College vote...something that Trump won quite handily. Face facts, Lysistrata...Donald Trump ran a better campaign than his opponent and won the Presidency fair and square despite having an opponent who both had the main stream media in her back pocket and was paying to have Trump smeared with the Steele "dossiers" eight days before the election! Ever stop to consider what Trump's margin of victory would have been if Hillary Clinton's misdeeds had been exposed BEFORE the election?

Of course the judge is a liberal! You on the left have been using liberal judges to attack conservatives for the past decade. It's what you do when you lose control of the House or Senate.

His was elected through a fluke in the electoral college process. That election was over in 2016, but you expect me to be impressed by your comment about his campaign and election. But be that as it may, he has showed many times in his conduct in office that he is the filthy pig we thought he was. Are you trying to get me to actually support this sort of behavior? Why are you doing this? I don't let his kind into my house!

I doubt that you have any proof of your assertions at all. What would be the difference between a liberal judge and a conservative judge when they are all supposed to be neutral?

 

[toobfreak]

So now Obama and Biden themselves are not credible sources? As they are their own source for much proven against them. But thanks again for showing what a hopeless clown you are even as you use conspiracy theorists for much of your own claims against Trump.

We have sat and listened for months and years (years?) as Schiff, Nadler and Pelosi told us they had the absolute bag sewn shut on Trump positively and how evil and dangerous he is, yet we are still waiting for the first shred of proof! When are you going to shit or get off the pot and PROVE IT by voting to impeach him?
