In the latest installment of “Opening Arguments”, former Acting U.S. Solicitor General, Neal Katyal discusses Trump’s “lawless” and “unprecedented” pardon of his “friends” and “campaign contributors.” Katyal argues while Trump has “gotten away with so much” the “law is going to come after him,” adding America’s “courts will bring him to justice.” (This interview is from MSNBC’s “The Beat with Ari Melber, a news show covering politics, law and culture airing nightly at 6pm ET on MSNBC. )

‘The Law Is Going To Come After Him’: Obama Lawyer Warns ‘Lawless’ Trump After Pardons | MSNBC
He knows he wont win in 2020.
He knows he won’t win Illinois because it is Democrat so he let the jailbird out to taunt us.
2020 Trump has already been decided. All of these are just a matter of formality
@Melissa Moats
Let me guess you like having yours grabbed right stupid!
He just might, the USA is basically a fascist dictatorship: Twenty-eight states have enacted anti-BDS laws or executive orders that prohibit state agencies and state-financed entities, such as colleges, from doing business with any person or firm that hasn’t pledged never to boycott Israeli goods.
i have never hated anyone this much…it scares me i feel this much hate for one person, but trump is that horrible.
The guy in the White House is sad
@Bud Fudlacker You did see today the document, showing trump came into office with a good economy.
@Rudy Penza While your association(s) are explanatory, it is unfortunate that this medium precludes the use of pictures for those of defective comprehension abilities.
Yes he is…he asks for it with his disgusting behavior.
Scott Peterson, or depose.
Justice isn’t blind. It’s in a coma.
Justice and the Republican party play favorite. The whole Trump family and members of his administration committed crimes. They need to go to jail.
Here here!!
bomaite1
I’m looking forward to justice waking up real soon!
bernie is in a very high risk of coma
The best joke today – the USA is a democracy.
@Johnny C lol! thanks for catching that. Muh spell check
Spell Bolshevik Revolution. Then spell
H O L O D O M O R I N F O . C O M
you want democracy? you can leave

Good old USA, hypocrites like no other country. Trump is just a product of his culture.
Jim Battersbee ◀️ Jew hating Nazi just like Omar AOC and 28 states.
The wolves are literally at the White House gates waiting for him. He knows his time is almost up
@Michaels amazing videos FiveThirtyEight averages multiple polls to reduce bias
@joe ward No, he won’t be remembered forever! There were many Roman emperors, for example, that ruled the world and few but the professors remember their names. Same with Kings of European countries and Chinese and Japanese Emperors.
But when Trump* is remembered, there’ll be that asterisk indicating Impeached! Romney’s fame is guaranteed!
the wolves are followers of trump
@Michaels amazing videos , a Republican half-truth. Other half is that his approval rating never has been very high.
@Clinton Pachingel No, those are the lemmings
it does seem like one man’s feeling he is all powerful trumps a jury of one’s peers
We’re a system of two sets of laws: One for the rich and connected and the other for the rest of us. Anyone that tells you different is a chump. There is one thing I’m thankful to Trump for: he exposed (by example) the rotten underbelly of our system for all (who are willing) to see.
It looks like that 2 system set of laws might be beginning to break down.
Jay Zenitram yessss he did!!!!!
Jay Zenitram I do agree with you sir. Politicians are certainly not being held accountable for their actions. Washington is in a state of corruption this country has never seen before. It doesn’t matter what side of isle it is. Money and political power can get you a get out of free jail card.
Iv’e been saying that for a couple of years but it’s good to see others are coming to the same realization. The two century old ‘constitution’ virtually guarantees a Trump and is utterly worthless in dealing with one.
The FAKE president is SCUM! Always has been – always will be…
WE THE PEOPLE SHOULD DEMAND TRUMP BE IMMEDIATELY ARRESTED, AND PUT AWAY FOR LIFE.
Trump: You good?
@Mike Green Thankfully you inbred morons are a minority. You support a liar, criminal, and TRAITOR. Just like we took back the house, we’re coming for the Senate next. Your lawless president will be going to prison. I will bathe in that glorious moment with every ounce of my being.
Linda Upton, on trumped up charges of course. Irony is so wasted on the ignorant.
This reminds me of OJ. He was acquitted but years down the road, the law came to bite him.
M 3 the law didnt come to bite him they came to set him up. Im no trump supporter, but the law shouldn’t be weaponized against people because you couldnt accept their aquittal.
@HisWordsRpure But he wasn’t 🤷.
If Bernie Sanders wins in November, then Trump will be in handcuffs next year FOR CERTAIN. It’s inevitable.
Tessmage Tessera how can you be certain about anything? You must think bernie is an angel. He can be corrupted like any ithe politician.
He pardoned Blagojevich because he went to jail for selling Obama’s seat in the Senate, among other things. Plus their old friends from The Apprentice. ..
Kinda saw this one coming
Deacon Borges
American Mafia!
@Steve Kalas 😢
His hair is even uglier than Donald Trump’s.Maybe that’s why Trump pardoned him.
@Leonard Pereira Trump doesn’t give anything any thought there’s nothing in that head of his to allow him to think.
@Deacon Borges I’m from chicago illinois. And he needs to stay locked up. Because that was man is guilty as sin. And his own political party removed him from being the governor of illinois. You even had people in the city of chicago. And the suburbs of chicago. That was signing petitions to remove him. He brought our justice department. In Illinois to complete shame. And for this dude to pardon. Somebody that did wrong. For the state of illinois in the city of chicago. That is utterly stupid.
Trump is braking all American laws and your letting him. It’s time to put this dictator out of business.
@Jonny Sevent i see the truth i juss dont care…i also dont feel like paying 20% more in taxes so a bunch of parasites can get to live longer….im a sociopath theres plenty of us around get used to it
@jfsfrnd mitt scummy
@Whitemanfromtowne T … Don’t blame black people for this trash created by trump…
We stayed home …
@Michaels amazing videos Keep drinking the Kool Aid.
They talk a lot, Americans. Not much cop when it comes to action though, too much bread and too many circuses.
They will single out every member of his administration. Bill barr will see the end as well..
@Zach Addington And you’re losing.
@Todd Smith dude I’m from illinois. And this bozo. Is trying to pardon a former governor of illinois. That was convicted of high crimes. Against the state of illinois. He needs to stay in jail. Because he doesn’t deserve to be pardoned.
Dae Dotfan19 ◀️low iq bozo
@Search you know, that’s probably an accurate assumption. I wonder if they still make cyanide capsules?
Remember that when Blogo was impeached NOT ONE Democrat in the Illinois legislature voted to acquit.
So…… they ARE capable of such a task? I was beginning to wonder if they lacked training, or if they’re even actually alive. Zombies for Trump……. think maybe out of a $1 BILLION cake he divvied up among those with the immune votes? I mean……. with a billion he could pay 1,000 people a million EACH.
“He looks like anybody you see on the street. But when he grins, birds fall dead off telephone lines…the grass yellows up and dies where he spits. He’s always outside. He came out of time…He has the name of a thousand demons. Jesus knocked him into a herd of pigs once. His name is Legion. He’s afraid of us…He knows magic. He can call the wolves and live in the crows…He’s the king of nowhere.”
― Stephen King, The Stand
*I dont drink, but the day they arrest trump, I will have a Triple*
@9TheMajor congratulations many blessings
😂😂
I don’t drink either!!! But I will join you!! Its probably better I don’t drink anymore!!!! 🇺🇸
Mark Forrest, not in the case of traitors.
You won’t be alone, all democrats will have a triple of TDS=TRUMP DRINKING SYNDROME..lmfao
He’s already pardoned himself. And will fight in courts til he’s dead to uphold his right to have done so. They need to check under that ridiculous beaver on his head for the 666
And count in his minions those deplorable Republicans that have enabled the Orange Dumpling and his band of deplorables. SAD and WRONG
😝
Amen !!!!
trump is pardoning all his Criminal Friends more Corruption in his WH. But who will Pardon trump and his DIRTY MOB? NOBODY let him go and live with Putin or Kim
66 Million Americans are waiting for that day when the law will catch up with Mob Boss.
Its today. just go to sleep and he will be arrested in your dreams
66 Million? No wonder Trump is in the lead. MSNBC need to invoke blind hate in about 280 million more people before that happens.
its the Day of Judgement before The Lord that will count n we will know then what heaven knows – justice n mercy
They love to keep bringing up the 63 million that voted for the orange blow fish, but what about the 66 million who voted for Clinton!!
LOL ok
If democracy is truly a so-called “experiment”, then Trump is doing everything within his power to blow up the entire damned lab. Certainly, a madman who is being cheered on by his fellow mad scientists, namely; the entire GOP.
Ohh,but the Democrats are equally as guilty
