Welcome To Trump World

[GMan]

You AJ are missing the part where most do not care what he did before coming into office,it is what he is accomplishing while in office that matters.

It is going to be a long 7 years for some or maybe better to let Pence take over and let the chips fall where they may.

What he is accomplishing in office now is precisely why they want to neuter him. He is running the country as a country instead of a globalist trading plaza and resource bonanza.
They can't make collusion stick so got to find the perfect stormy.

I'm very aware of the exception, no need for me to google it. Just hope all of this was done with ok of the U.S. Attorney for the district or the AAG.

Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein personally signed off on it and it was carried out through the office of the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York. Beyond merely supplying the evidence he discovered to the U.S. Attorney's office for further action, Mueller had nothing to do with either requesting or executing the search warrant.

If Trump committed crimes before coming into office, then yes, that does matter. Particularly if those crimes were committed recently enough to still be prosecutable under the statute of limitations.

^^^ Duly noted.

Well he [[Trump) best get his able defense and distraction gag going just as Bill Clinton did during his impeachment process. May need to hoist that fourth back-up tent for this 24/7 circus.

In the meantime of that who'll be running the country?

So Trump is saying "Mueller has gone too far". What are the chances and can he really fire Mueller? I would think if and should this happen, it will not look good on his part.

As far as Cohen goes, I bet he spills any and all information. He has always looked like he's afraid to say anything and avoids the media.

Firing Mueller does nothing to stop this particular case since it's in the hands of the U.S. Attorney's office now. The Stormy Daniels stuff falls outside the scope of Mueller's investigative mandate, which is why he handed off evidence of whatever he found to the U.S. Attorney that covers NYC for them to deal with it.

Can Trump fire Mueller? Not directly. What Trump can do is fire Rod Rosenstein and replace him with a lackey that will fire Mueller. That is relatively easy. And the odds of that happening are looking increasingly good, particularly as Trump becomes more and more unhinged. Trump laywers, Ty Cobb and Jay Sekulow, are almost certainly telling him NOT to fire Mueller, but as time goes on we're increasingly seeing Trump ignore the advice of experts and go with his own gut, so I fully expect him to shoot himself in the foot sooner or later.

If Trump gets rid of Mueller, Congress can use their own authority to hire him back and then Trump has no power over it whatsoever and the investigation continues right where it left off.

Looks like president Trump needed a war-time Consigliere!

...so I fully expect him to shoot himself in the foot sooner or later....

So in a sense he'd be shooting himself in Mueller's foot. LOL

Seriously though, I can envision Trump reacting like a cornered animal at some point. It's hard to imagine how far he wouldn't be willing to go to get his way.

It's been nice knowing you, America!

[Zacha341]

I don't think he'd be that unique in putting up a formidable fight to stay on as POSTUS.

Agreed. I was thinking more of an extreme scorched earth approach like threatening to burn down the White House while tweeting "If I can't be president then no one can!" I wouldn't put it past Trump.

[Zacha341]

Nice photo setting politics/ politricks aside.

I think Trump may need a bit more than Fieger can provide.

Speaking of what you see, this whole thing is more about the 'shadows on the wall'!

I think this is all going to get really messy before all is said and done.

Hah! How's about dat!! Or on the other hand if we can't bring him down, we'll bring down the country and all rules of law in de' trying!

Unlike Trump Tower in NYC, it's a good thing the White House was retrofitted with a sprinkler system.

What happened to that Trump talking point of not telegraphing our actions to our enemies ?

You got the rat part right....

[Jimaz]

So how do they expect to prevent Trump from just slipping out of the handcuffs? Do they make handcuffs in children's sizes?

You guys are like watching a comedy show.

The guy put his twenty years in and now wants to spend time with his family when they are at the age when his father passed,and you guys find distaste in that.

But yet play the we are compassionate card lol

^ that's what they did to Hilliary.

^ that's what they did to Hilliary.

Hillary who?

I'm so sorry that Paul Ryan could not stay on longer and continue his aggression's towards our social safety net, under the false guise of religion and country. To think that the blue tsunami headed inland this November would have even the slightest bit of impact on his decision to cut and run during such a prosperous era is beyond me. Why couldn't he stay on for decades like the homely turtle, Mitch McConnell? Mitch has made a career out of attacking our basic human rights, and toeing the line in the ever increasing partisan landscape that we call our government. A true beacon of leadership that I figured Paul "Eddie Munster" Ryan espoused, and longed to embrace.

Rats fleeing the sinking ship indeed.

And here's to Cohen singing like canary.

One last note: Even if Trump does fire Mueller, I have to believe that the entire investigation doesn't just "go away" as much as DJT would like it to. If so, our country is is a pretty bad spot.

But her emails!!!

^ the social program was designed to give those a hand up in time of need and not be used as a tool to keep people oppressed so it looks good when you say,we would rather see you in the dirt then building a better life because we have compassion.

The only rights you give up are the ones you allow to be removed,one person standing in Washington does not dictate to the country,when you give up your rights for a false sense of security,you show complancy.

But no problem when calling for the taking of others rights because you do not agree with them.

If you notice most of the democrats winning now are conservative democrats and not the hard left radicals the DNC is trying to push,nothing wrong with that.

It appears the DNC is leaning more to trying to be the ASP or the American Socialist Party creating a coup within itself.

Just another in a long list of "Trump says/does the exact opposite of whatever he said when Obama was President" examples.

Here's another example:
If President Obama had crossed his stated Red Line In The Sand, the Syrian disaster would have ended long ago! Animal Assad would have been history! -Donald Trump on Twitter, April 8, 2018

The only reason President Obama wants to attack Syria is to save face over his very dumb RED LINE statement. Do NOT attack Syria,fix U.S.A.
