If we're talking about prosecutorial discretion, aren't we in the gray area between the executive and judicial branches?

Don't see why it would be.

Honestly, I'm just going to bow out at this point.  I didn't expect the conversation to last this long, and I don't really want to spend more time defending Trump.

Fair enough, but one last question, please.  Why do you think it's prosecutorial discretion?  My understanding was that the FBI investigates potential crimes, and then hands it off to the Justice Department for prosecution.  Prosecutorial discretion per se would come into play at that point, and not during the initial investigation, I would think. 

If even this is something you no longer care to answer, I can accept that.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
