Fox News legal analyst Andrew Napolitano doesn’t expect President Trump’s eldest son to escape special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation unscathed.
Napolitano predicted Wednesday on SiriusXM’s “The Dan Abrams Show” that Donald Trump Jr. will be indicted, a day after Mueller recommended no jail time for the president’s former national security adviser Michael Flynn, who provided “substantial assistance” in the investigation.
When asked if he expects anyone in the president’s inner circle to be charged, Napolitano said, “Yes. I don’t know who, but I do know that Donald Jr. has told friends he expects to be indicted.”
“Do you expect he’d be indicted?” Abrams asked.
“Yes,” Napolitano said.
Vanity Fair reported last month that Trump Jr. speculated that Mueller could indict him for making false statements to the FBI and Congress about the infamous Trump Tower meeting with the Russians in June 2016.
“The president himself should be extremely uncomfortable about this,” Napolitano said of the latest developments in the Mueller investigation.
