As rumors continue to filter in that Manhattan D.A. Alvin Bragg's attempt to indict former President Donald Trump is falling apart, a new report has indicated Trump's team of attorneys is seeking to exploit a little-known legal loophole through which he can avoid indictment by not actually committing any crime.
"Not many people actually know this, but not committing a federal crime is a great way to completely avoid indictment," said Joe Tacopina, a member of Trump's legal team. "Having a veritable who's who of attorneys in your corner is helpful to really dig deep and find this type of legal ace-in-the-hole."
The revelation of this loophole provides an explanation for the former President's seemingly nonchalant attitude toward the New York legal case. Trump again expressed his innocence in a post to his Truth Social account. "You can't indict someone when they don't actually commit a crime! Everyone says so!" Trump said.

So funny.
This is deeeeeelicious!

“”Avoid Indictment By Not Committing A Crime””
...Unless you’re a ham sammich and the DA is a real dilly
That’s a noble reason!! Please continue.
Not committing a crime and not being a ham sandwich!
How dare anyone use this loophole. It just goes to show how corrupt and amoral all politicians are, even Trump.
Sounds like the old “trickinology”.
I recall the indictment against Blago. It didn’t list any crimes he committed - it just said he was a bad guy.
They eventually got him on perjury - if they interview you long enough you will contradict yourself.
the dnc
is going to
panic the blm to death
Liberal Dems and the Media: “We must close the being innocent of a crime loophole before more people are harmed, specifically people who work for the government’s ruling party”
He’s so sneaky, that fox.
It’s a TECHNICALITY, at least regarding Trump. He won’t be able to get away with it.
The BEE almost got me....yeow...
