[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]It does matter that Trump was not convicted by the Senate. But if we now say a president can be tried criminally once they have left office for actions taken while in office, why not have that apply to all prior presidents. That would be interesting to see.[/quote] This is not a new idea. If you remember, Mitch McConnell's excuse for not voting for impeachment was because Trump could be charged in court after leaving the presidency. McConnell will no longer comment on that position, but he clearly once contended that presidents could be charged after leaving office. [/quote] +1 And IIRC Trump’s own lawyers in the impeachment proceeding argued that it was no longer appropriate since he wasn’t president anymore and that prosecutors could take a look now.[/quote]
