Ryan, McConnell, and company are chomping at the bit to impeach—while outwardly pretending otherwise.
And, if the GOP loses the House, the Dems will make up their own articles without need for evidence from an SC.
But since Trump is by conventional wisdom damned either way, he might as well get the dishonest and biased Meuller out of the way. It at least sounds like getting Rosenstein to recuse himself will set up a new acting boss over Meuller to rein him in or force resignation or whatever.
This is all cleaning up from Trump’s team having made bad internal personnel decisions (e.g., Rosenstein). And from rumors of who Trump is considering in replacement if he cans Priebus, they may still be making those bad decisions. (E.g., Manhattan Democrat and former president of Goldman Sachs Gary Cohn as chief of staff? Yikes!)
Priebs and Jivanka IMO need to exit the WH in order for good staffing decisions and rapid, deep cleanup of their errors to date to take place.
The President should file conflict of interest complaints against both of them. Force them to resign or be disbarred.
It seems as if Ryan is moving to force the resignations of both Trump and Pence. Seems like a Uniparty coup to me.
