Just consistency.

I mean, if they had him dead-to-rights, it wouldn't take 18 months even with a President. Honestly, it wouldn't surprise me one bit if they do indict him over some of this, it's seeming pretty likely. Just how much of it, and how severe, and what the hell comes of it in terms of him staying in office, it's all spitballing at this point. Mueller and his closest circle of peeps are in the know, and we're all farting in the wind, basically.

Disagree. Mueller appears to be building a case against a broad group of people and isn't interested in dropping any bombs until his investigation is complete (or nearly so). Given a change in external circumstances, that could certainly change.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Any case against any sitting president wouldn't under any circumstances outside of a video showing them murder someone be done in a short period of time. That's silly thinking. A good investigator like the special counsel would dot every I and cross every T before presenting evidence. Thinking otherwise is honestly just being willfully obtuse.

But then... There's lots of willfully obtuse people out there.

The fact that Mueller filed for 70 blank subpoenas in Manafort's case means that a lot of perps are in his crosshairs. Not just the big fry DJT, but his sons, Javanka, and hopefully Steve Bannon and Stephen Miller.

 

[Donner]

I hope Trump Jr and Eric are thrown under the bus. Those two are such effing idiots. There are literally no redeeming qualities that either possess.

 

[DeadPresident]

Hmm, not sure I buy that retracted statement about the phone tap only being call logs.

IMO one thing on Mueller's to do list is building a RICO case, perhaps one explanation for the laundry list of subpoenas.

Mueller Seeks 70 Blank Subpoenas in Manafort Case

NY Magazine - Before It Stopped Cooperating With Mueller, Ukraine Hired GOP Lobbyists. Hmm.

Ukraine also let Konstantin Kilimnik go back to Russia and shut down their investigations from when the Russians took over their government through Paul Manafort and Viktor Yanukovych.

Seriously, how can anybody remotely objective not seeing all these things and don't suspect any wrongdoings from the Trump Administration? News like this really expose just how corrupt the White House has become.

That's been my assumption as well.

 

[KevanG]

Well, Trump says everything is fine. Why wouldn't anyone believe him? He's the President after all.

Of course, there's a lot of people out there of various ages that have grown up being told that the President may lie or do bad things but it's all to protect us from *INSERT CURRENT ENEMY HERE* and he should be forgiven for anything due to that.

"Doesn't matter because there have been a number of allegations against Daniels and, um, you can look them up somewhere, um, and the president doesn't have to justify himself because he's the president, um, that's the best information we have. Refer to the president's outside counsel. 'Cause you don't know nothin' 'bout me." -- Sarah Hucakabee Sanders at the next WH briefing when asked about this.

 

[Quasar]

And Sarah Huckabee Sanders will do so with her perfect smoky eye.

Republicans: You're vile. Why you gotta talk about how fat and ugly she is???

Two words. Hillary. Clinton.

What's fair? As in "done in some way where it can't hurt me even though I'm guilty?

 

[Sithborg]

There is something truly amazing about the "law and order" party whining about how unfair law enforcement is.

So Kanye saw the great power in Trump.

Kanye is the only person alive to make less sense when he is off drugs.

Ouch, the comments by District Judge T.S. Eliot regarding the Manafort case are worrying...

Politically it's a conservative mouthing off who has a position of authority but legally it seems it's not uncommon for judges to rhetorically smack the prosecutors around but in the end still grant them most everything they are asking for. This won't end with the case being thrown out or something.

 

[Lily Adler]

Fox News is going to be clinging on to that for dear life. They've been doing that for Kanye for the past week.

Are you sure it's not just the fact that 1211 Avenue of the Americas runs on "Dragon Energy"?

So he wants Mueller to guarantee that he won't hit him with any hard questions before he'd agree?

 

[squeekness]

Lame.
