Fox News Legal Analyst: Trump Will Be Prosecuted

“Trump was clearly aware just moments before he took the podium that you had a mob of heavily armed people. The critical thing he says is ‘they’re not here to hurt me,’ which implies that in his mind, he knows they’re here to hurt someone.

“And the second thing he says, which I don’t think has gotten enough attention, ‘they can come in, they can hear me, and then they can march to the Capitol.’

“So he’s very aware that you have a mob that’s armed to the teeth that he is planning to encourage to march on the Capitol.

“And then as the testimony ensues, we find out that he not only intended them to do that, he wanted to participate, he actually wanted to lead them down there.

“That knowledge opens up the possibility that you could prosecute for aiding and abetting the intimidation of federal officials, which is a pretty serious crime.” – Former Assistant US Attorney and current Fox News legal analyst Andrew McCarthy, speaking to The Intercept.
