Isn't it odd? He feels real bad for Paul. Really sad for him. It's a shame what happened to him. He's losing sight of the fact that his Department of Justice succeeded in a bringing a criminal to justice.Originally Posted by Ardwen

"He's a good man, treated unfairly, Democrat jurors Very Conflicted. Why didn't the jury charge Crooked Hillary with anything!?"

The only reason why Trump isn't being charged alongside Cohen right now is because he's POTUS. But for now he'll have to make do with being listed as an unnamed co-conspirator. Anyone still think he'll be winning in 2020?

DOJ: "Rep Duncan D. Hunter and his wife, Margaret E. Hunter, were indicted by a federal grand jury today on charges that they converted more than $250,000 in campaign funds to pay for personal expenses and filed false campaign finance records with the Federal Election Commission"
When it rains, it pours crooked members of the GOP.
Khaladon starts to turn the crystal knob, but stops with a frightened look on his face. He begins shaking uncontrollably and flies across the room, as though by some invisible force.
**SPLAT!!** Khaladon careens off the far wall, slides down the smooth wood panelling and collapses into a quivering heap on the floor, with only his dignity bruised.

They've got depth at all positions. This guy was the 2nd congressman to endorse trump. The 1st was Chris Collins.

Michael Cohen’s lawyer is suggesting President Donald Trump should face criminal charges for directing his longtime “fixer” to make hush-money payments to two women to influence the election.
Lawyer Lanny Davis tweeted on Tuesday: “If those payments were a crime for Michael Cohen, then why wouldn’t they be a crime for Donald Trump?”
Davis’ comments came after Cohen pleaded guilty to charges including campaign finance fraud.
Shots fired. I bet trump has some choice tweets for Cohen on the way.

There's actually more grey area on this than crimes committed while acting as the head of the Executive. If anyone were ever going to finally challenge the notion that you can't indict a sitting President- this would be the Case to do it with.
Having said that, the legal realities and the political realities diverge considerably here. It would likely need to be the State of NY who brought the case as it's unlikely the Federal Prosecutors would get the sign off on this.
In other words- you're totally right, but it's fun to play what-if?

Do we know what the statutes of limitations on these crimes are?

Republicans made damn sure Obama wasn't allowed to pick a supreme court justice because he had under a year left in office. It only makes sense that Trump not be allowed to pick a judge since he's now complicit in a federal crime that was committed to help him win the election.
