Grand Jury Witch Hunt

It seems Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller is now convening a grand jury to go after President Trump and his son Donald Jr. This will most likely mean bad things for the President.

Not because he's guilty of any sort of "collusion" with the Russians  (they've even admitted they won't get him on that). But, because a grand jury doesn't have to play by the same rules as a normal trial has to follow. They don't even have to stick to the specific charges leveled against him (and they're not).

Mueller has opened an investigation into Trump's finances and business holdings.  This had nothing to do with why he was appointed, and there were no specific accusations of wrong doing in these areas.

This is a dangerous precedence, which could undermine our entire system of laws.

In the past, a grand jury was only convened once there was specific evidence to warrant a hearing. (Sort of like a DA would on go to trial if they had enough evidence to support their case.) So much proof is generally required, that Grand Juries are seldom used in Presidential matters.

It is the job of the Jury to look at all the findings of the investigation and the Special Prosecutor, then determine guilt or innocence (like a judge).

The problem here is, Mueller is calling forth the Grand Jury with no evidence of the initial "crime" (collusion with the Russians), and plans to look into, and present, unrelated evidence. If allowed to continue (and he probably will be), Mueller will be able to offer anything he wants as "evidence" of anything he wants, and for as long as he needs to prove Trump is guilty of a crime.

This is basically like a police officer being allowed to follow you around, without probable cause, until you finally do step out of line. It's unethical, and at least in America, we're supposed to have laws against fishing expeditions like this.

All I can say is, if Mueller succeeds in his vendetta against Trump, you can count on two things...

The Regressives will pat themselves on the back, and claim what a good thing they accomplished.

And, democracy as we know it, will be officially dead.  There will no longer be any reason to vote, because the losing side will just throw tantrums until your vote is overturned. That's a dictatorship, or a fascist state. It's not democracy, and it's not America.
