Donald Trump Is Becoming Trapped
Nw York Post ^ | Jukly 29, 2017 | Michael Goodwin

The next day, Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina upped the ante, saying, “any effort to go after Mueller could be the beginning of the end of the Trump presidency unless Mueller did something wrong.”

He added that he will introduce legislation to block any attempts to fire the special counsel without judicial review — and said he was certain all Democrats and many Republicans would support him.

So it is with Trump. Problems, some of them self-inflicted, that looked temporary and manageable have been compounded over time and are reaching a crisis point. Most important, he is losing flexibility to act just as Mueller expands his probe into Trump’s business empire as well as his 2016 campaign.

Various reports say the special counsel, who is amassing a small army of prosecutors, is going through Trump’s career, including his taxes and property sales, to find any connections with Russians that might indicate collusion in the election.

If Mueller is going through any of Trump’s taxes, he better have a warrant, and only for one year.

If not, Rosenstein better fire Mueller. If Rosenstein doesn’t fire him, Trump should fire Rosenstein and Mueller at the same time.

Once the prime witness was identified (James Comey), and the prior working and personal relationships between Mueller and Comey were made known, Mueller was ethically bound to then recuse himself.

This was known to Rosenstein before he was picked - and he was picked anyway. Do you think the Deep State has to play by your peasant-level ethics rules? :)

Lindsay and McShame (and Collins and...) are making a disgusting spectacle of themselves. And, they’re hurting the country a great deal. We elected DJT to drain the swamp and these clowns are back-stabbing the effort. In this most fundamental manner, they are playing for, helping the wrong side. And that’s not so much a political analysis than it is a statement of basic principles...we want and we voted for a cleaned-up, more honest government. McShame and Lindsay need to resign ASAP

Fake News! Isn’t it fascinating that we are so savy, as to be able to determine Fake News?

Yes, and they want us to swallow the crap sandwich that Mueller is non-partisan, a man of impeccable integrity and honor. Well, if he was, he would not have met with Comey and told him to hire a lawyer.

As an investigator when you go in, you could end up in anywhere. A real investigator would recognize the breadcrumb trail left by partisans on week two!

So on the left we have Russians paying for the hotel pee pee dossier to smear Trump to a company with strong DNC ties.

Hmmm? Yo, Mueller.....over here!
