Apparently just slipping on a trip to India is enough.

In 1997, DiGenova wrote a column in the Wall Street Journal arguing that the Constitution allows for the indictment of a sitting president.

The legal question has never been tested in court. Many scholars have argued the Constitution prohibits criminally charging a president, leaving impeachment as the only avenue to hold a president accountable for legal violations until he or she leaves office. Trump’s own legal team has made that argument. Many experts believe a controlling Justice Department opinion prohibits Mueller, technically a Justice employee, from charging a sitting president.

But diGenova argued there is no clear statute or constitutional provision that would prevent the indictment of the president.

“The nation, in fact, could conceivably benefit from the indictment of a president,” he wrote in the column, which was published while Clinton was under investigation by an independent counsel. “It would teach the valuable civics lesson that no one is above the law.”

That was then, this is now. I'm sure he has had a change of heart.

This is seriously weird and convoluted (like everything with 45) but this guy diGenova appears to be connected to Comey and the October Hillary email FBI leak...warning, also involves Guiliani, Lara Trump (Eric's wife) and Anthony Wiener.

There were also some rumors that Lara was involved in a catfish operation, one that could entrap Weiner. Along with questions about just how Weiner's wife's emails got on his now confiscated computer.

He wants to push this theory that the FBI and DOJ have conspired against him, and tried to prevent him from becoming president. This would validate the firing of Mueller and discredit the entire inquiry, in his mind. Trump has considered hiring this wacky conspiracy theory attorney to back it up, as reported this morning by the NY Times:

Mr. diGenova has endorsed the notion that a secretive group of F.B.I. agents concocted the Russia investigation as a way to keep Mr. Trump from becoming president. “There was a brazen plot to illegally exonerate Hillary Clinton and, if she didn’t win the election, to then frame Donald Trump with a falsely created crime,” he said on Fox News in January. He added, “Make no mistake about it: A group of F.B.I. and D.O.J. people were trying to frame Donald Trump of a falsely created crime."

"Little evidence has emerged to support that theory.

Right-wing media is already pushing that angle. Rush was talking about the "deep-state" and how 70% of people believe that one exists, then he was tying in the CIA to the deep-state, as well as tying in the liberal's 180° about-face from despising and hating to now liking and respecting the government alphabets.
