Plus, he'll be totally fed up with the job and all of its scrutiny by 2020. I'd wager he already is.

It’s a term I always associated with a trial but you’re right

But goddamn I don’t see how there isn’t enough for an arrest

I think the failure to arrest him is indication of corruption and cowardice

Question, who has easier access to the absolute best top shelf defense lawyers in the US (and for free) than the POTUS?

Lobbyists.

I don’t know, honestly.

I do know that Mueller has the authority to arrest Trump. But not the balls.

This would be Trump if Mueller tried...

It would be a unilateral move for Mueller and the FBI to arrest a sitting president. Even with a president as incompetent as Trump, he's still seen as the de facto leader of the nation. The FBI definitely doesn't want to be responsible for any unrest resulting from removing the president from office. Remember, Nixon was never arrested even when it was clear that he had commited obstruction, but he lost support from the GOP and ended up being forced to resign. I think a similar fate awaits Trump.

If he can’t be arrested he’s a de facto dictator.
