Hey guys! Please! Lighten up on our United States Attorney General Merrick Garland. He is fully engaged in the appropriate investigative imperatives that will surly bring all criminal perpetrators to the full consequences of their chosen misdeeds.

Agreed. Also, Garland, and the DOJ generally, are facing a Catch-22, IMO. Even if it's determined that prosecuting a former president is doable, the DOJ will face charges of 'partisanship', 'political bias', etc., due to the fact that a Democrat is in the White House. You needn't be omniscient to know that there would be NO prosecution with a Republican POTUS, so Garland's choices, it seems to me, are to prosecute and devil take the hindmost, or not prosecute and let a seriously dangerous cancer continue to metastasize in the body politic.
I feel very strongly that if Trump is not prosecuted, our democracy is toast. Thus, any potential negative consequences of a prosecution are of little concern.
