Joyce Vance, a former federal prosecutor, says that there is a good chance that Robert Mueller will name President Trump an unindicted co-conspirator in the Russia investigation. That makes sense as it is unclear whether you can indicte a sitting President msnbc.com/the-last-word/…
In my own legal opinion you cannot indicte a sitting President. The President must first be removed from office. There is a split in the legal community about this. But to put it simply a president cannot perform his constitutionally mandated responsibilities if he is beholden
..to the judiciary, i.e. a President who is subject to criminal charges would be unable to fulfill his duties say negotiating with a foreign leader at an international summit if he is convicted and imprisoned or put on probation.
Indicting a sitting President would give the judiciary, in my opinion, impermissable authority over the executive branch, violating the one of the primary directives of the US Constitution, separation of powers. Congress must first remove President from office. So #RegisterToVote
