    Dan McLaughlin Retweeted Megan McArdle

    It would be very ugly & a dangerous precedent for the new Administration to launch criminal prosecutions of its opponents - something "Lock Her Up" Trump never did. A state prosecution for clearly-defined pre-presidential crimes would be a different animal.https://twitter.com/asymmetricinfo/status/1324147818433548288 …

    Megan McArdleVerified account @asymmetricinfo
    Just a reminder that however vile Trump's behavior--and it was vile--there are prudential reasons of civic cohesion that countries do not, in general, wait until democratically elected leaders depart office, and then immediately prosecute them. https://twitter.com/neal_katyal/status/1324131079935111174 …

        The real rule-of-law issue with prosecuting a former president for the first time in US history is whether the charges are the sort of clear violation of unambiguous law that an ordinary citizen would be prosecuted for. Any effort to get creative will reek of banana-republic.

        Everyone learned about the fall of the roman Republic and took away the lesson: "hell yea it was right for the senate to line up a bunch of prosecutions of Julius caeser as his term/immunity ended, leaving him little option but to cross the rubicon"

        Hillary might have mishandled emails but Trump is engaging in a direct attack on the Constitutional system of government.

        This isn't wrong, but it's hard to think someone as corrupt as Trump should be able to just get away with it. Outrageous for a law and order party to so argue, in fact.

        If Ford had not pardoned Nixon, do you think prosecution should have commenced? I’m not making a direct comparison, but trying to figure out how this works.
