I don't have any pre-determined assumption on how the Mueller investigation will end. But, I don't want it to end early. Like many Americans I want Mueller to be able to complete the investigation the right way. Without being fired.
As that becomes closer to being a possibility, members from both parties in congress have initiated bills to protect him from being fired. Mueller is doing everything right. He's conducting a clean investigation.
But, if Trump is innocent, why does he keep threatening to have Mueller fired? Why was a warrant for his fixer such a big deal? To obtain a warrant, it had to be proven that evidence would be found. Technically, it was a FBI investigation that Mueller just provided some information for. Rod Rosenstein, Trump's appointee signed the FISA warrant.
To me, Trump is like a gang kingpin, mob boss, or cartel boss. He was involved, but, there won't be evidence pointing to him so he won't be catchable. I am assuming he was involved because of his shady and manipulative behavior over this investigation. Innocent people don't behave this way.
I don't care about the affairs or prostitutes. This investigation is about if Trump obstructed justice and if he knew about Russia's involvement in the election. All these porn star interviews in the news are drowning out that important fact.
Melania might still be deciding what to do. This level of embarrassment was what Trump hurled at Hillary during the election. She stayed in the marriage and took flack for it. But, if Melania leaves, she doesn't get his money. I don't know what she'll decide, but I hope it makes her happy.
I like that it's a bipartisan effort to protect Mueller's investigation. His firing would be a constitutional crisis. In both parties senators and representatives are saying "let the law do it's job, investigate." The truth is important.
If Trump is innocent, that will be proven. But, innocent people don't behave like he has. Ryan and McConnell have decided not to bring anything about protecting Mueller to the floors. They stupidly believe Trump will let the investigation take it's time and complete. I wonder what someone is sneaking into their meals!
Trump is an awful president because of his decisions and policies. I am curious about what he's hiding in his taxes. But, I didn't need to see his taxes for to realize he was going to be a bad president. I wouldn't be making any assumptions, if he supported the investigation. I'm don't know what Mueller is finding, but clearly it concerns Trump. If he were innocent, Mueller's findings wouldn't be a problem.
Those porn stars agreed to sleep with him because they were told he'd get them on "The Apprentice". It wasn't rape. It was consensual. He told them what they wanted to hear to get what he wanted, and never kept his promise. According to various news sources including the New York Times and CBS.
Advice for doing business with Trump, don't agree to anything unless he has to do his part first. Also, include a void clause if he doesn't do as promised. That advice applies to politicians making deals with him too. Although, North Korea is kicking his butt! He's made all the concessions so far and they have made no promises yet. His behavior does effect his ability to do the job when he flip flops on views so often.
Mueller isn't assuming Trump knew what Russia did. Mueller is investigating what Russia did and who knew about it. He's investigating if Trump obstructed justice, but he hasn't pressed charges for that, yet. It's a serious problem that Russia interfered in the election. It speaks volumes that Trump doesn't want that information brought to light. We don't know what Mueller has and what he doesn't. But, he is doing everything in this investigation by the book.
We don't know what Mueller has seen. But, we need to let this investigation complete before deciding on how to react. We need to let Mueller find the truth. What that means for the country and this presidency can't unfold until the investigation is complete. It all comes down to what Mueller finds.
