    If you attempt to pressure a witness to destroy evidence…is that witness tampering, evidence tampering, or some other kind of crime? Regardless, throw that one onto the mountain of unprosecuted felony crimes that he’s committed.

      Second paragraph my guy.

      The indictment includes new counts of obstruction and willful retention of national defense information,

    Guy who had escaped being charged with obstruction of justice just because he was president, charged with obstruction of justice now that he’s not president.

    We’ll see if they have the evidence to prove it but yeah not a shocking turn of events at all.

      I guess when you’re already at this level of trouble and you haven’t faced consequences for any of it yet, what’s a few more charges added on top of it all? Either nothing happens or the whole house of cards comes tumbling down, there’s not really any middle ground here.

        yep, he lived a fulfilling life of crimes and morally dubious choices, I figure nobody, including himself, would have expected to lose that immunity from consequences especially after serving as president. Though I guess there was indeed a limit to just how cartoony evil you could be, even though it is incredibly hard to get there.
