What Neal Katyal just said on MSNBC.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

"Running for POTUS again is no guarantee against Federal indictment, as is drinking bleach is to treat COVID."

Chalk one up for Neal Katyal.

1. Neal Katyal would make a great AG

Frank Figliusi would make a great FBI Director.

[ProudMNDemocrat]

3. Neal will have to wait after Biden wins re-election.

Neal Katyal would make a very good AG.

[NewJeffCT]

he's only 52

[Rebl2]

agree on both

[SoBlueInFL]

11. Hear Hear!

[onecaliberal]

2. He doesn't have to run again to avoid prosecution. He seems to be doing a good job of avoiding now.

[lees1975]

25. He sure does.

The President just got through the best midterm performance of a sitting President in 40 years. I sure hope the DOJ doesn't blow this for him by crawling away and playing politics. The best way to be a law and order administration is to follow the law. indict, hold for contempt, bring to trial, convict and lock him up.

It's long, LONG past time for this.

4. That question should appear on college entrance exams ...

"Running for POTUS again is no guarantee against Federal indictment, as is drinking bleach is to treat _________."

This would weed out MAGAt's from attending their university.

[Beartracks]

27. _covfefe_?

[TheRickles]

6. By Trump's "logic", anyone can avoid Federal indictment by declaring their candidacy for President

It doesn't matter what the odds are of your being elected, just the fact that you're running overrides all other considerations. Ridiculous to think that any lawyer would represent him on this issue (though that hasn't stopped so many others!).

[IronLionZion]

7. Just indict him already

he can drink bleach if he wants

[Joinfortmill]

24. Yup

[republianmushroom]

8. 22 months and counting, where is the DoJ

[Martin68]

10. Awkward syntax but excellent analogy and sentiment.

[Kennah]

12. This will need to be revised, but should be included on the SATs

[Prairie_Seagull]

13. Tangentialy, now that he is appearing as persona non grata to many,

especially for President, maybe his "announcement" will be for Speaker of the house. Should the R's take it. Apparently one does not have to be a house member to be considered for Speaker. There was some talk of this not long ago and I am not sure if this is still a viable option but I think his ego may find this clever. Keep his foot in the door and options open.

Forgot to mention, timing for announcement seems a bit suspect.
To out there?

[sop]

17. Does the Speaker of the House have immunity from prosecution as well?

[Upthevibe]

14. Kick. N/T

[Takket]

15. i wouldn't be so sure........

that's up to Garland. and he seems more interested in upholding "unwritten rules and norms" while the gop tramples all over them

[FoxNewsSucks]

20. that's what makes me puke

They trample and ignore actual laws and rules, while we have to abide by and revere their made up rules and tradition

[uponit7771]

30. +1, even though I believe TFG will be indicted but with a kicking and screaming DOJ

[AlexSFCA]

16. GOP establishment would be thrilled if trump gets indicted right now

[GenXer47]

29. Weird, isn't it?

They want someone else to solve their problem instead of just going all-out against him. Cowards!

[uponit7771]

31. Yep, but and indictment wont disconnect TFG from the GZP base cause its cult level now.

[SalviaBlue]

19. That was so great!

I had to rewind and call my husband in to hear.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

21. I laughed when I heard Neal make this comment

[Tbear]

22. He's been pretty funny lately

Do you think the jokes are his or has he gotten a writer?
Not that he couldn’t he’s just really busy

[LetMyPeopleVote]

26. Lawyers are not known foe our sense of humor

[Joinfortmill]

23. He's toast. Now, even the Republicans don't want him.

[FakeNoose]

28. Chump told them to inject bleach, not drink it

A person might possibly survive drinking bleach, I suppose. But injecting it would certainly cause a horrible death.

[uponit7771]

32. +1, to be further technical TFG said to "inject disinfectant ... inside". MAGA loves to parse those

... words about what TFG said after he said he was "kidding"

They're' that slimy

[burrowowl]

33. LOL! Kick
