Professor: In the worst case, Russia may report trap Trump
We are now one step closer to knowing what role Russia played during the presidential campaign in the UNITED states in 2016.
UNITED states attorney general, William Barr, has on Friday evening Danish time received a long-awaited report from the special prosecutor, Robert Mueller.
the Report will also shed light on what sorts of offenses, president Donald Trump may have committed.
It is a moment you have been waiting on for two years, says Mette Nøhr Claushøj, external associate professor in american politics.
– It is very large. The question is whether the current US president has committed high treason and has collaborated with a foreign country to manipulate the election, then democracy itself in the UNITED states.
– Then it becomes not very slemmere. In the worst case, the president may be allocated, but there is not yet. We’ll just have to see, how much serious there is in this report, but it is of the utmost consequence, says Mette Nøhr Claushøj to Ritzau.
the Report’s content is not immediately published. It is also not indicated in the degree and, where appropriate, when it will happen.
But the minister of justice has indicated that he is probably already at the weekend will be able to share the main conclusions from the report of the Congress.
A president has never before been marketed. If the report determines that Trump has committed high treason, the House of Representatives vote on whether there should be raised rigsretstiltale against Trump.
Then, the Senate vote on whether Trump should be judged or not, explains Mette Nøhr Claushøj.
– The worst thing, that can stand in the report, is that Trump has been fully cognizant of and fully aware of what he did, and that he worked very specifically with the russians to manipulate the elections and the election campaign in the UNITED states in 2016.
– It is about whether he committed high treason, or whether he just has been a bit of an amateur in the context of electoral campaigning, says Mette Nøhr Claushøj to Ritzau.
