Vice President Mike Pence says it’s time for special counsel Robert Mueller to conclude his probe of Russian interference in the 2016 election.

He says: “In the interests of the country, I think it’s time to wrap it up.” Pence spoke to NBC News following the release of three Americans held by North Korea. …

December 2018 maybe. Gotta keep this sham up through the mid-term elections.

Just as the Rats held off the truth about the 9-11-2012 terrorist attack on our embassy until after that presidential election.

It won’t end until the illegalities of his attempted coup are exposed.

Big ugly, where are you??

It’s about time Pence (and other leading Republicans) spoke up in support of the President. Isn’t it wonderful how traditional politicians find some spine after the President’s candidates won primaries and polls show his “approval rating” rising above 50%.

Just when it’s getting good.

If it weren’t for the innocent people involved, I’d say carry on. Each day brings a new defeat for Mueller.

MSM will characterize this as circling the wagons just as Mueller is poised to get the evidence that proves Trump obstructed justice.

Great, now for that comment Pence is going to go through a year of investigation for obstruction.

"...(and other leading Republicans)..."

You mean like Nancy Ryan?

I’m certain Mueller heard Pence and will now wrap up his inquisition.

I appreciate the sarcasm.

Mueller’s stubborn (keeping the innocent Boston guys in jail for years, persecuting Hatfill for anthrax for years).

He’d take it all the way to Hitler in the bunker if he’s not fired.

Well Ryan is a special case. He started out as a budget policy wonk who happened to be a physically attractive "young gun" back in the day. As such, he was touted early and often as a "rising conservative star," a "brilliant" guy, and a conservative darling (including here on FR). Then he became Romney's butt bo...er...running mate, and did a horrible job in his VP debate. We should have known right then and there the guy was a phony and empty suit.

Yet in the best Peter Principle tradition, he became speaker and promptly put all of his empty suitedness on full display. He might be pretty on the outside, but inside he is just another useless two-bit hypocritical pol.

“It’s about time Pence (and other leading Republicans) spoke up in support of the President.”

NOT GOOD, for the Left. Pence was always looked at as the ‘good guy’ who was waiting for the chance to simply replace that oaf, that beast, Trump. Now Pence is letting the Left know that their dream is over...

Or maybe “Mr. Good Guy” is just following the rising poll numbers and primary wins, and deciding now is the time to come out of hiding. One of the things I love about President Trump is that he is not a professional politician. Professional pols are a loathsome lot, and Pence is a professional pol. Sorry for my cynicism, but considering how often we’ve been betrayed, there is good reason for it.

So now will the special counsel charge the vice president with obstruction of justice?

Yea, true...but Pence being right next to Trump gets to see just how UGLY the Left is - and Pence has the credibility with the ‘professional class’ to let them know.

The big problem for the ‘professional class’ Republicans is that they are CLUELESS as to just how much they’re DESPISED by virtually every Democrat in DC. All they see are nice guys, fun guys to party and drink with, who have one or two small differences with them on policy. Now, hopefully, Pence is letting them know that it’s MUCH MORE than that, and the Dems will JAIL (or worse) ANYONE who gets in their way...as their equivalents are now doing in Europe and Canada with ‘hate speech’ laws.
