The legal principle preventing a POTUS *from indictment* simply prevents a POTUS from indictment — not factual findings and their implications.
Jaworski naming Nixon an (unindicted) coconspirator is the precedent for this.
(Would he finish his term? Face impeachment? Resign? They didn’t know.)
i.e. There was evidence on these # people, and of them, these were charged, and these weren’t, here’s why.
And this week’s legal news was not exactly... a model of clarity.
