Trump Gives Hillary a Get Out of Jail Free Card. Or Does He?

Trump Gives Hillary a Get Out of Jail Free Card. Or Does He?

Written by Nathan McDonald (CLICK HERE FOR ORIGINAL)

One news headline, that has many of those who supported Trump throughout his candidacy pulling their hair out in rage this weekend, is the one that stated Trump would not prosecute Hillary Clinton for her illegal use of a private email server during her time as the Secretary of State.

At face value, this is quite frustrating and annoying, as it goes against one of Trump's campaign promises to hold Hillary accountable for some of her past crimes committed which broke many laws that others of lesser position have been charged for.

What people are missing is a strategic play that Trump has initiated and enacted. Trump has extended hardcore Hillary-supporting liberals an olive branch and offer of peace that he himself never actually possessed.

The reality is, the President of the United States DOES NOT and CANNOT legally prosecute anyone. This is not his job and not within his power. Donald Trump stating that he will not prosecute Hillary Clinton should come as no shock to anyone, as he cannot even do this!

In the process, he has gained an advantage and looks presidential. Meanwhile, his recently appointed Attorney General, Jeff Sessions, is free to act as if he is not being "politically" motivated or influenced. He is fully in his right to pursue charges against Hillary if he deems it appropriate.

Given the fact that Jeff Sessions is known as the number one constitutional attack dog, it is likely that he WILL do the right thing and go after Hillary for her past crimes.

Also, what this does is defuses the possibility of President Obama pardoning Hillary Clinton in the 57 days he has remaining, an opportunity that is less likely to be used if Trump himself takes a soft stance against Hillary in the short time that remains for Obama to act.

The lying mainstream media, who has recently come out with a full blown assault on the alternative media and are flailing about in their dying gasps, is doing everything they can to try and put a wedge in between Trump and his supporters. The spin on this story is just another example of this, as they know the facts just as well as I do.

Yet, the facts still remain just the same. As I've always said, do your own research and stop and think about the news you are reading before you allow it to influence you.

The MSM and the elites who control them are the same ones who have religiously attacked us in the precious metals community for decades. We know their tricks well and we will be here, exposing them every step of the way, for as long as we can in this eternal fight for freedom and liberty.

Trump does not need to be involved in this.

The NYPD has the authority, Wiener's emails and have publicly stated that they will go after her. Probably after Jan 20th (the no Obama pardon date).

Think the New York Trump people might not have an inside connection with the NYPD?

Bill is a horny good ole boy, but Hillary has always been the greedy one. Their foundation has been one giant pay for play, and suing them into the ground is not prosecution......

"is the one that stated Trump would not prosecute"

He didn't say anything about prosecuting. He said he would appoint a special counsel -- something he DOES have the power to do.

But he also said he doesn't want to hurt the Clintons.

So here's my guess. He will threaten a special prosecutor unless Hillary admits to her crimes and pays a fine of $100 million (current assets $189.3 million) from the Clinton Foundation with 100% of what's left over to go to charity.

In flyover country we call that "asset forfeiture".

Double jeopardy only applies to criminal cases.

Jeopardy attaches when the jury is empaneled and sworn in. In a bench trial, jeopardy attaches when the first witness is is sworn. If a trial is aborted due to gross prosecutorial misconduct, double jeopardy applies. For other reasons, jeopardy may be considered continuing, and a new trial be considered a continuation of the same case.

Double jeopardy does not prevent prosecution by seperate sovereigns (State and Federal). Even where jeopardy has attached Federally, that would not bar a State prosecution for the same acts, if they constitute a violation of State law.

No jeopardy has attached from the FBI investigation, and had it attached, it would not impede a State prosecution for violations of State law.

Consider: "One news headline, that has many of those who supported Trump throughout his candidacy pulling their hair out in rage this weekend, is the one that stated Trump would not prosecute Hillary Clinton for her illegal use of a private email server during her time as the Secretary of State."

I believe he will not threaten anything, but his AG may appoint a special prosecutor.

His administration may not go after her for the email, but may open up the foundation can of worms. Take away the tax-exempt status and seek payment and penalties, and claw back improper distribution of funds.

I personally think that is where it is headed....with a number of investigations reported to already be underway.

That news organization is wrong. Hillary has not been charged with anything.
