Giuliani: Even if Trump had shot Comey he still couldn't be indicted for it
The Hill ^ | 06/03/18 | Julia Manchester

President Trump's personal attorney Rudy Giuliani said in a new interview on Sunday that even if Trump had shot former FBI Director James Comey, he still couldn't have been indicted.

“In no case can he be subpoenaed or indicted,” Giuliani told HuffPost. “I don’t know how you can indict while he’s in office. No matter what it is.”

The former New York City mayor went on to say that impeachment would be the course of action if Trump committed a crime, even in the extreme hypothetical circumstance that he shot Comey.

“If he shot James Comey, he’d be impeached the next day,” Giuliani told HuffPost. “Impeach him, and then you can do whatever you want to do to him.”

The comments come one day after The New York Times obtained a letter from Trump's legal team arguing that the Constitution gives the president the authority to, "if he wished, terminate the inquiry, or even exercise his power to pardon."

This madness from Giuliani must mean that there is something big going on behind the scenes. Maybe they want to see how many liberal head can explode at the same time. BOOM! Enjoy the show!

There you go. The RATs will now shoot Comey and blame it on The President.

Shooting Comey. Now that is a thought that needs exploring.

No, even impeachment is not enough. Clinton got impeached and was merely censured.

You have to impeach, and then remove him from office. Censure doesnt do anything.

Once removed from office a president is open to lawsuits and crimimal charges.

During the campaign, Trump boasted he could shoot someone in broad daylight in Manhattan and folks would still vote for him.

Extreme hyperbole upsets liberals. Perhaps because they miss the fact Trump is boasting. New Yorkers are used to it.

I LOVE this new approach.

Throwing down the Impeachment gauntlet.

Go ahead, make our day.

But we will not submit to a Court order (subpoena) or Indictment.

Ball’s in your court.
