Little Adam Schitt Schiff is under the impression that President Trump could face jail time. You know. For…um…well there was that one time he…uh….mom? Is that you?
This clown, who’s poised to take over the House Intelligence Committee, told “Face the Nation” that Trump could face “real jail time.” I think he really, truly believes that.
.@AdamSchiff on the Russia Investigation: My takeaway is there's a very real prospect that on the day Donald Trump leaves office the justice department may indict him. That he may be the first president in quite some time to face the real prospect of jail time. pic.twitter.com/3kfwumFkh7

“”There’s a very real prospect that on the day Donald Trump leaves office, the Justice Department may indict him,” Schiff said. “That he may be the first president in quite some time to face the real prospect of jail time.”
Although the allegations, released by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York on Friday, are serious, it’s not clear that they carry jail time — or much of a punishment at all. The document, which never mentions the President by name (but appears to refer to Trump as “Individual-1”) says that Cohen “acted in coordination with and at the direction of” Trump, who wanted two alleged former flings, Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal, paid to keep quiet about their affairs with Trump during the 2016 Presidential campaign.
The claims, if true, appear to be campaign finance violations.
At worst, we’re looking at campaign finance violations. Also keep in mind that this has absolutely NOTHING to do with Trump/Russia collusion, which was what the entire witch hunt was supposed to be about in the first place.
But listen. Democrats totally have their priorities straight. For example, they’re already discussing how to prevent a future POTUS from pardoning Trump.
“We have been discussing the issue of pardons the president may offer to people or dangle in front of people,” Schiff explained. “The bigger pardon question may come down the road, as the next president has to determine whether to pardon Donald Trump.”
“I think the prosecutors in New York make a powerful case against that idea,” he continued. “All the arguments they make against Michael Cohen…that argument was equally made with respect to Individual-1, the President of the United States.”
Please keep in mind that Trump hasn’t been officially charged with anything.
But jail time. Mhm. Schiff is counting on it.
