Claudia Tenney: Indictment Will 'Blow Over' Because Trump Won't Appear

"I think this is all going to blow over because I don’t see any way that they’re actually going to get to appear in a court for... indictment or for any type of charge,” the congresswoman said.

By Ed Scarce — March 20, 2023

I guess at this point Claudia Tenney should become one of Trump's lawyers with such sterling legal advice. And Tenney is a lawyer who practiced for many years before she went into politics. But that doesn't seem to matter if you're a MAGA lawyer.

And news for Rep. Tenney, Trump has already said he will appear. "As was pointed out for Tenney, Trump’s lawyers previously released a statement saying he would cooperate with authorities should an indictment come."

Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) predicted Donald Trump being indicted by the New York district attorney will “blow over” because the former president will simply refuse to participate.

3. So, what's the point? Is that what you're saying Rep. Tenney?

Just for funsies, let's go ahead with an indictment and just see how that works out for a person to blow it off. Are you familiar with the term "arrest warrant"?

Or I could just become a politician and rob the American people blind, and take dark money, all perfectly legal.

Few are numbered. (There's an expensive laser thing they can do.) Most are not traceable, and easy to fence because their small & easy to hide.

Because anyone can point to the tens of thousands of people who were indicted, ran away, never had a warrant issued, were never picked up, and live happy and free today in full public view as the cops and courts leave them alone, muttering that it’s a good thing that not even more people have found out about this huge loophole.
