[FONT="]Rep. [/FONT][FONT="]Adam Schiff[/FONT][FONT="] (D-Calif.) on Sunday said that [/FONT][FONT="]President Trump[/FONT][FONT="] might "face the real prospect of jail time" after prosecutors indicated last week that he directed illegal payments during his 2016 presidential campaign.
[/FONT][FONT="]"There’s a very real prospect that on the day Donald Trump leaves office, the Justice Department may indict him. That he may be the first president in quite some time to face the real prospect of jail time," he said on CBS's "Face the Nation."

I believe the answer to both your questions are yes. The left thinks that when it's their side facing the same thing they will be able to switch it back to the way it was before Trump and sadly they may be right.As we have seen with the Clinton's, once our politicians lose, or leave office, they are rarely prosecuted, and jailed...That's just not the image this country has ever wanted to send, that we jail our former Presidents, etc....
Is that changing? Has TDS finally broken through the veneer of civility between the two parties to unleash certain players that think it would be a good thing for America to have opposing political parties sending their opposition to jail?
If so, and if this is the "fundamental transformation" that Obama was speaking of when he was elected, then we are on a saddening path...God help us....

Yes, it's changing. Not since Nixon have we had so perfectly a criminal-minded person in office, and from everything I've heard about Nixon, Trump dwarfs his criminality. If there's a time to seriously consider indicting a sitting president, this is it.
At this point Trump's "crimes" seem to involve paying off a couple of sexual indiscretions and trying to get a hotel licensed in Moscow.

He also says a lot of cringeworthy stuff and his diplomatic skills are.....rather unrefined. I mean, maybe that does make him the worst criminal in the history of American politics but, frankly, it's a rather long way off from "conspired with Russia to hack Hillary's computer and release the results to the public for the purpose of advancing his political campaign".

If a President has broken the law he should be prosecuted once he leaves office.
That’s said I don’t think any President will ever see the inside of a jail. House arrest? Maybe. But actual prison? I seriously doubt it.
The fact we haven’t been willing to charge former Presidents isn’t civility, it is corruption.

Civility?
**** Civility.
We in revolution territory if his ass doesn't end up in jail.
Imagine the riots in France, now imagine that only with millions more people.
And yes to all you pearl clutching conservatives, property will be damaged during this riot. *Gasp* "Not the property" Yes, property.
And no one cares about "What about..."
There is nothing Trump can do to change hearts and minds. No facts anyone can share to mend the broken fences. No logic that can be applied to de escalate the situation.
At this point, the US should divorce itself and split into two ****ing countries. Not because of Donald Trump. But because of his supporters. Donald is just the front man for them. The real enemy.
He has shown everyone that those who follow him are twisted and corrupt. That their value system actively opposes those of normal Americans. And that they would sell out their own country just to feel like they are in charge.
Trump supporters disgust me.
I hope there is a civil war.
His "payments" broke several federal laws regarding campaign finance disclosure, bank fraud, and conspiracy. Petty as it was, it's a bigger crime than what Clinton was impeached for.At this point Trump's "crimes" seem to involve paying off a couple of sexual indiscretions and trying to get a hotel licensed in Moscow.

It just goes to show the hysterics about the Clinton's were never about corruption, but pure politics.
This is Attorney's in SDNY, not Mueller.
This has to do with potentially having committed a felony, not with affairs.
Remember, Clinton was investigated about an AFFAIR (legal), and they got him on perjury about that affair, and impeached a sitting president for it. We're not even half way to that point yet, and you're already crying uncle?
