Ex-Watergate prosecutor predicts Trump will be charged for tax evasion after he leaves office
By Zack Budryk - 09/29/20 10:54 AM EDT

Nick Akerman, who served on the prosecution team during the 1970s Watergate investigation, said Tuesday he believed President Trump would likely face tax fraud charges upon leaving the White House.

Akerman's comments came after The New York Times released a bombshell report on Sunday revealing a look into Trump's finances. The report stated that Trump was able to avoid paying taxes 10 of the 15 years preceding the 2016 election. 

Akerman noted that a New York Times report referenced “avoidance” in the headline.

"It looks like Trump has done a whole series of activities that could qualify as tax fraud, not tax avoidance. This is a very important distinction,” he told CNN’s Erin Burnett.

Charge is one thing.  Convict is quite another.

The charge, and its attendant media hyperventilating, is all they’re interested in.

It's the "seriousness of the charges," dontchaknow.

Trotting this fellow out is like giving Wooward or Bernswine fresh face-time on PMSNBC.

Yep. They will throw everything but the kitchen sink at Trump.

Problem with that of course is that the voters, even Biden voters, notice the double standard, and American voters will largely reject unfairness directed at the office of president, if not the unfairness to Trump himself.

Once he's out of office will they care anymore?
