Paul Butler: No Person Is Above the Law, Including the President

‘Donald Trump alleged criminality is on a different order, a different scale than even allegations made against previous presidents’

EXCERPT:

BUTLER: “We certainly have to have that concern, Joe. And Merrick Garland, if confirmed, his most difficult decision will be whether to prosecute Donald Trump and other members of his administration. On the other hand, we don’t want to look like this is the equivalent of 'Lock him up, lock her up.' On the other hand, people should be held accountable. And no person is above the law, including the President. As you indicated, Donald Trump's alleged criminality is on a different order, it's on a different scale than even allegations that were made against previous presidents.”
