According to legal analyst Barbara McQuade, Trump's perp walk out of the White House will be like swinging on a vine through an alley of alligators.

I also didn't realize that Trump can't be permitted to move out of the country because he could sell so many state secrets :(

The federal statute of limitations to prosecute his crimes is 2021, so he can be prosecuted for his 2016 crimes next year, and so on.

  • ten instances of obstruction of justice--four with enough evidence outlined by Mueller to prove each element of the offense.
  • threatening to withhold aid from Ukraine in return for a "favor" violates the Federal Bribery statutes.
  • Using his property to generate revenues with entities looking for business with the government also violates the bribery statutes.
  • Sabotaging the Postal Service is "conspiracy to defraud the United States."
  • Campaign finance violations with payments to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal (Michael Cohen has already been convicted of this crime but his partner, "Individual One," is still on the lam in the White House.)
  • Some of the crimes NY DA Cyrus Vance, Jr. are investigating include bank, insurance and tax fraud; money laundering; and preparing false business records. Trump is still fighting release of his tax returns in the courts but has lost about 7 decisions so far...
  • The NY Attorney General is investigating civil tax violations regarding undervaluing property. Eric Trump recently testified in this ongoing investigation.
  • By scheduling campaign events in the White House and ordering the cooperation of federal employees in same Trump violates the Hatch Act, punishable by up to 3 years in prison.
