Giuliani says Mueller has informed him that Trump cannot be indicted
By Brett Samuels - 05/16/18 05:50 PM EDT

Special counsel Robert Mueller’s team told President Trump’s legal team that they can’t indict a sitting president, CNN reported Wednesday.

Rudy Giuliani, who is leading Trump’s legal team in the Russia probe, told the network that when it comes to the president, Mueller’s team can only write a report at the conclusion of its investigation. Such a report could outline wrongdoing or include recommendations for the House.

“They can’t indict. At least they acknowledged that to us after some battling, they acknowledged that to us,” Giuliani told CNN.

The decision not to indict a sitting president would align with Justice Department guidelines dating back to the Nixon administration that say a sitting president can’t be indicted.

Giuliani added that he believes the Constitution prevents the indictment of a sitting president.

But...as Fox just reported that if Mueller does uncover a crime committed by Trump that Mueller can give that evidence to the House to act on it.

This is essentially what happened with the Starr Report.  Not exactly a revelation.

Exactly, we already knew this.  He can be impeached by Congress, but not indicted until he leaves office.

Mueller is a clown.
