Most of President-elect Donald Trump's legal woes will go away due to a long-held policy by the United States Justice Department (DOJ) against prosecuting a sitting president.
The policy stemmed from a memorandum written by Assistant Attorney General Randolph D. Moss that said a sitting president could not be indicted or prosecuted because it "would unconstitutionally undermine the capacity of the executive branch to perform its constitutionally assigned functions."
