It would be extremely easy: https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna206917 https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna206917 > Mexico’s security chief confirmed Tuesday that 17 family members of cartel leaders crossed into the U.S. last week as part of a deal between a son of the former head of the Sinaloa Cartel and the Trump administration. I don't know how Republicans continue to support this administration. Maybe they just don't know he's aiding criminals?

> He believed that was the case because the former cartel boss, whose lawyer said in January he had entered negotiations with U.S. authorities, had been pointing fingers at members of other criminal organizations likely as part of a cooperation agreement. > “It is evident that his family is going to the U.S. because of a negotiation or an offer that the Department of Justice is giving him,” Garcia Harfuch said. Looks like they're getting protection in exchange for testimony against other cartels.

    > No convictions have come from any of the accusations as POTUS. I'm not sure we'll ever see one since the supreme court is in his pocket and has already ruled that that the president is allowed to commit crimes as long as it was an "official act" as determined on a case by case basis by the court

      That's through the courts. There is still the concept of impeachment+conviction which is what Trump was arguing was the only way to deal with presedential misbehavior. Of course he was leaning on the knowledge that his party's control of congress would make that a non-starter as well

    He is a convicted criminal. He committed fraud and was found guilty in New York.
