If there's evidence of crimes, we should pick him up. If there isn't, we shouldn't. You can go away for a long time for conspiracy to murder. But you like these hypotheticals that assume that the executive is omniscient about threats to the country and yet powerless to do anything useful in a court of law. Both are belied by reality, yet you persist.
