Representative Mo Brooks (R-AL) is just sayin’ there’s a statute somewhere (he can’t remember exactly) that says we could throw the president in prison for a few years.
Brooks said there is a federal statute (“I don’t have the citation for it at the tip of my tongue”) making it a felony to aid, abet, or entice a foreigner to illegally enter the U.S.
“At some point, you have to evaluate whether the president’s conduct aids or abets, encourages, or entices foreigners to unlawfully cross into the United States of America,” he continued. “That has a five-year in-jail penalty associated with it.”
While Brooks is keen on the idea of imprisoning the president, he’s not sure if the president has done anything worthy of impeachment, which makes total sense except not really.
