Ari Melber
Not a huge fan of "thought experiments," but imagine this *same* news, and the national reaction, applied to other people in the *same* positions:
'Obama tries to prosecute McCain'
'Clinton tries to prosecute Dole'
'Bush tries to prosecute Gore'

Imagine if she bought a golf course and doubled the membership fees to profit from her status as president.
Imagine if she conducted high level meetings in the open in her club within earshot if uncleared club members.
Imagine if she refused to release her taxes.
It is simply impossible to say with a straight face that Donnie, or just about any republican, gets treated remotely the same way as democrats.

Hmmm. Might not have been a bad idea. Though it would have been a bad precedent
