On his show, Dr. Phil McGraw suggested that prosecuting politicians puts America at risk of becoming a “banana republic,” adding, “What are we going to do next? Have a Putin poisoning posse?” Of course, many would argue that putting politicians on trial when there’s evidence that they committed a crime ensures that no one is above the law.
At least McGraw isn’t suggesting that different rules should apply to Donald Trump if he’s elected president again. Speaking to TMZ, the doc said that he plans on begging Trump not to abuse the legal system. “The last thing we need is retribution and revenge,” he said, later adding, “That could be the absolute end of this country as we know it.”
McGraw might not count himself among the celebs who can’t stand Trump, but he has said some things about the real estate tycoon that he might not want a vengeful chief of state to remember. While speaking to top Trump foe Jimmy Kimmel on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” in 2015, McGraw took a jab at Trump’s troubling hair. “He’s got a dead cat on his head,” he quipped. He also said, “I think at some point, he’s gonna have to replace some of his adjectives with verbs.” McGraw will get to learn firsthand whether Trump took his advice during their interview, which will air June 6 at 8:00 PM ET on McGraw’s broadcasting network, Merit Street Media.
