RUSH: Here we go. Kurt Schlichter at Townhall. We quoted him last week on another piece that he had written. Title here: “Trump Needs To Be Smart About How He Fires Mueller.”
Here’s the open: “Trump must eventually fire Robert Mueller, a partisan tool carrying water for his Establishment pals as he oversees an utterly corrupt ‘investigation’ where the only person we actually know committed any wrongdoing is his bestest buddy Jim Comey. But Trump can’t just lash out and do it, though it is well within his political and moral right to do so. No, he’s got to do it cleverly, with cunning,” and guile, “in a way that shows the American people exactly why Mueller’s witch hunt is a flaming dumpster fire of conflicts of interest and contempt for the right of normal Americans to have a say in their own governance.
“Trump needs to seize the initiative from Leaky Bob.” Not to be confused with Pat “Leaky” Leahy. This is leaky Bob Mueller. Schlichter writes, “You know, I keep hearing how Mueller was this squared-away Marine officer, but through these incessant leaks his organization demonstrates a complete lack of both integrity and discipline. Mueller seems unwilling or unable to exercise any kind of leadership over his team of Hillary donors, or to instill a culture of seriousness and impartiality. The continuing misconduct of his out-of-control, ever-expanding fiefdom demonstrates that he must be relieved of command. And here’s the letter the president should send to him to set the stage to do it.
“‘Dear Mr. Mueller: I write in my capacity as the President, and to you in your capacity as a subordinate executive branch,’ peon, ‘officer.’ [This is where the president clarifies who works for whom – and whom the American people elected. Hint: It wasn’t the Menschian Suddenly-Aware-That-Russia-Is-Bad Gang.]”
You know, Jared Kushner said something yesterday when he came out of his meeting, that all of this is a direct slap at the people that elected Trump. This is too. These people in this investigation to get rid of Trump, which is all this is about, getting rid of Trump, they are openly admitting that as far as they’re concerned, the vote of the American people really doesn’t matter if it goes against their wishes.
Your votes for Trump don’t matter. Your votes for Trump, the fact that a majority of Americans elected Trump, not a factor. In their minds, you don’t even rate. Back to the letter. This is the suggested letter from Kurt Schlichter that Trump should send to Mueller.
“‘You were appointed to investigate the baseless and politically motivated claims of collusion with Russia. While I am frustrated at the partisan innuendo and improper leaks, I respect this process. Yet these false claims have interfered with my administration’s ability to deliver on the promises I made to the tens of millions of Americans who voted for me last November.’
“[This is where the President makes clear that he will not let these bogus charges derail the policies the American people voted for. You establishment creeps want to go back to business as usual? Win an election.]”
That’s how you can get business back to usual. But you don’t sit around and pout and have a temper tantrums and turn the Constitution upside down because you lost an election with a hapless, horrible candidate.
Anyway, the money pull quote here is: “Mueller has to go, sooner or later, but the President must first set the stage and make sure the American people understand exactly how much of an utter scam this whole thing is before he acts. Impeachment … is a political act. To pull off their unbelievably dangerous and destructive coup, the establishment needs to get a bunch of Republicans and the House and Senate to go along.
“Some of the RINOs are itching to, but they are cowards and they can be controlled by fear of voter backlash. By appealing to the people and making his case to them, the President will ensure that the people will tell their elected representatives, ‘Oh, hell no.’ And the coup will sputter then peter out in pathetic failure, much like a Fredocon watching Cinemax at midnight without his Viagra.”

Now, I’m not so sure that these people give a rat’s rear end anymore about the opinion of the voters. I think that is obvious here in watching all of this. I think you people who voted for Trump are as despised as he is. I think if that’s not the case, you nevertheless are still held in contempt and your vote is not respected.
You are either a dupe or an idiot or a nativist or a racist bigot or a nationalist. You’re something that’s unflattering. You’re not prescient. You are not a visionary. You are a reactionary, and you fell for the campaign of a huckster. Your vote in majority electing Trump is not respected. That is obvious watching these people conduct their affairs.
The Boy Scout speech and Ohio rally are exactly the right start for POTUS. MAGA!
“...Mueller seems unwilling or unable to exercise any kind of leadership over his team of Hillary donors, or to instill a culture of seriousness and impartiality....”
No leadership is required. The sole goal of this travesty is to unseat DJT. Nothing complicated at all.
How to get rid of Comey.
Wake up some day tired of this crap and just fire him.
How to get rid of Mueller.
Wake up some day tired of this crap and just fire him.
Or declare people have 4th Amendment protection of papers, privacy and illegal search,
and just fire Mueller. And throw Sessions in as a freebie.
The best way for Trump to proceed is to say something like “Mr. Mueller, you have 3 weeks to identify any collusion as you were instructed to do as Special Counsel. Failing to identify this after that period of time, I will consider your job complete and will terminate you role in this investigation.”
ok .....if DJT can do it with political finesse,fine
but either way he’s gotta Pull the plug on this nonsense!soon
Ask Scooter Libby how fairly he was treated.
I say “pull the trigger” on this one!
Trump MUST fire Mueller. The Clinton lawyers Mueller brought in are straight up looking for revenge for the Starr investigation and Bill Clinton impeachment. They are going to dredge through every single business deal, every tax return using the excuse they are looking for Russian money, and they will find something, however small, to try and take down Trump.

How to fire Mueller - file a lawsuit citing Mueller’s clear conflict of interest in taking on any matter regarding Comey. Mueller was Comey’s protege. That clearly disqualifies him.

In the wee hours of the morning while he's snoring keeping his wife/husband awake send him an official e-mail, telegram, whatever as long as it's official and notify all the news agencies at the very same time that he's been fired for insubordination, incompetence, dereliction of duty and other things.
OH and do the same to the little twit that appointed him too.
I still say it’s the money. That group is spending at least $100,000 a day, maybe a lot more. Keep reminding people what this witch hunt is costing. Turn that into miles of highway, etc.
We should do that as American citizens. All we need is a talented lawyer
Sessions can go on a raiding party and fire Mueller and his left wing laywers, fire any remaining liberals in the FBI and DOJ, and bring charges against the Clintons, Podesta and DNC leaders claiming they were in bed with Mexico, Russia and the Ukranians while those countries and the ChiComs meddled in our 2016 elections.
Then, he can start withholding federal $’s from any sanctuary and state.
While the mediots and the Deep Staters go ballistic, Trump can say that Sessions acted on his own, but it was too late to reverse what he had done.
He will say that Sessions will remain as AG until his replacement is approved quickly by the Senate.
Then, Trump can pick another AG to replace Sessions. His big club will be, “Approve my AG replacement or I will leave Sessions in charge, and none of you will be around in a year. He will investigate all of you. You all know that Sessions is a bona fide crazy conservative from the Deep South. He hates all of you.”
After President Trump’s replacement is approved by the Senate. Sessions goes home.
Year later when Pence is president, Sessions will write a book telling how he and Trump conned the Senate and the mediots into allowing Sessions to drain the swamp.
The big mistake of Sessions was that when he recused himself he should have appointed a special counsel of his own choosing then and there with limited jurisdiction. He lost control of the process entirely by not doing that then and there and since he recused himself he cannot intervene to correct that now that it is running amuck.
The President should issue a carefully crafted executive order setting ethical guidelines for conflicts of interest, past misconduct, etc. being qualifiers for working with the special counsel’s investigation. We already know their conflicts with working with the opposing political candidate in the election they are investigating, and some of them have serious ethical issues with misbehavior in past litigation.
This is the most profound and disturbing reality of all of this. These people don't accept democracy. They think they are better, smarter, and more informed than those who don't see the world their way. They are so delusional that they have no problem rationalizing any behavior from themselves, as long as that behavior leads to their retention of power. It's really no different than what has driven any totalitarian government over the course of history.
