Be on High Alert for Trump to Do the Unthinkable
23 August 18
e on high alert for Trump to do the unthinkable.
Now that his campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, has been indicted for tax evasion and fraud, all of us must stand up and speak out for the rule of law -- and prevent any presidential pardon of Manafort or other Trump associates.
Trump has a history of politically motivated pardons. But abusing his pardoning power as a reward for loyalty on the Russia investigation would constitute a clear obstruction of justice.
We must send a clear message to Donald Trump that he is not above the law -- and the American people won’t let him abuse his power to avoid accountability.
Please join me in speaking out.
