Democrats see good chance of Garland prosecuting Trump
By Alexander Bolton - 01/17/22 06:00 AM EST

Senate Democrats believe there is a good chance the Department of Justice will prosecute former President Trump for trying to overturn the results of the 2020 election and inciting the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, which would have major political reverberations ahead of the 2024 presidential election. 

Democratic lawmakers say they don’t have any inside information on what might happen and describe Attorney General Merrick Garland as someone who would make sure to run any investigation strictly “by the book.” 

But they also say the fact that Garland has provided little indication about whether the Department of Justice has its prosecutorial sights set on Trump doesn’t necessarily mean the former president isn’t likely to be charged. 

Given the weight of public evidence, Democratic lawmakers think Trump committed federal crimes.

That's another precedent you don't want to set, democrats.

Yeah, as juicy as it is, it could come back to haunt you. This is especially true if you got sloppy because you knew the media would protect you ala The Clintons
