Judge Andrew Napolitano pushed back against Rudy Giuliani’s claims that President Trump cannot be indicted in the Russia investigation, saying Thursday on Fox Business Network that the president is “not above the law.”
Giuliani, a member of Trump’s legal team, told CNN on Wednesday that special counsel Robert Mueller’s team told Trump’s lawyers that they cannot indict a sitting president, which Napolitano said was not explicitly true.
“The president is not above the law,” he said. “He can be indicted like anybody else.”

And bear in mind, the "President cannot be indicted" is coming from Guiliani repeating something that one of Mueller's team is supposed to have said - it has not been confirmed by anyone else...

Mueller indicated in a meeting a few weeks ago that he concurred with the view that a sitting president cannot be indicted under past legal opinions issued by the Justice Department, Giuliani told The Washington Post.
Giuliani said that Mueller at first tried to be “coy” when Giuliani asked the special counsel for his stance on the issue. One of Mueller’s aides responded that the special counsel would follow Justice Department guidelines, he said.
A spokesman for the special counsel declined to comment.

I would take Guiliani's statement with a large pinch of salt.

Sorry I don't answer hypothetical questions. Such questions holds no basis due to lack of evidence, second year and counting etc!
We sure as hell needed to know all the scandals on that horrible candidate they had running, AKA Hillary Clinton. Dare I say the "Crooked" one, oops just said it, silly me.
They should have stuck with Bernie but oh no, they cheated him out of it in the primaries by giving her the questions to the debate, they backed the wrong horse, she was and still is largely a terrible candidate, who LIED to a Benghazi victims mother!!!

Nope, the numbers do not stack in the Senate and it's the Senate that it really matters. 66 Yay's needed,. there is currently 49 Democratic Senators, in the Mid terms, 10 Republican seats are up for re-election. Even if the Dems managed to pick all them up, there is still NOT enough to convict and remove Trump from office, not to mention that even if they tried that his base would literally take to the streets and riot and cause massive civil unrest, the removal of Trump would cause a civil war, because there is this stupid Coup to illegitimately remove the legitimate elected President of the United States, all because one evil, crooked candidate, cannot accept she rightfully lost the race. |
OED definition of hypothetical - "Supposed but not necessarily real or true."
1. Trump said the words at a rally, then tweeted them
2, Trump Jr actually gave this as evidence at the Senate Intelligence Committee hearing
3. Papadopolous pled guilty to making false statements to the FBI about the contacts he had with the Russian Government.
They're not hypothetical, they actually happened.
