Dan Rather: What Mueller Knows Will Make Cohen/Manafort "Pale By Comparison," "Stay Tuned"
realclearpolitics ^ | 08/23/2018 | Ian Schwartz

Dan Rather warned Wednesday night that if you think Tuesday was a shock with the Cohen guilty plea and Manafort's conviction, then "stay tuned." The former news anchor said other things Mueller is working on will "make yesterday pale by comparison."

"Always keeping in mind that Mueller knows so much more than he has shown," Rather said in an interview with CNN's Don Lemon. "If you think [Cohen guilty plea, Manafort conviction] was a shock to our democratic system, just stay tuned. Because the other things Mueller is working on, and sooner or later we'll find out what they are, is going to make yesterday pale by comparison."

"I think the evidence abounds," he added.

Rather said on Wednesday's CNN Tonight that he doesn't think Trump is crazy at all, just increasingly cornered.

"So we are in an ocean the likes of which no one has been on. And the head winds right now are against Donald Trump," he said. "I know his former aide, Omarosa, thinks he is crazy as a bull bat. I don't subscribe to that. I don't think he is crazy at all. I do think that he is increasingly cornered and people who get being in a corner frequently can't think as straight as they otherwise do. And the pressure is on Donald Trump now. Things changed dramatically yesterday. It was reminiscent of March 1974 when I think nine of President Nixon's close aides were indicted and fired."

Is Mueller leaking to Rather or did Dan pick this up at Kinkos?

(I really, really love it when FReepers use the Socratic method in their posts....giggle).

Let's see.... after due conideration, I'd say Dan got this breathtaking revelation standing in line at Kinko's.

Gee Dan. You say you are a journalist. If you have real sources and information, shouldn’t you be making that specific information known to the public? We’ll just wait today to hear your story...… Uh. Still waitng.

Did any news network air that animated image the week the story broke? I know the image was created that quickly.

Their phony narrative quickly fell apart and even then it was 3 days before they acknowledged there was any skepticism.

Mueller must have needed some documents doctored up - so he called Dan.

Omarosa’s talking tour dropped off the radar when it came out she was fired 4 times by the clinton-gore white house for being a pain in the ass. Too many people personally know she’s a difficult person to work with.

Mueller moves in any direction he wants looking for any dirt that will bring Trump down, criminally or politically, and the recuser remains recused. The Russia collusion charge has no legs so Mueller is looking everywhere for something, anything, to bring our President down.

And the recuser continues to watch from the sidelines with that stupid smirk on his face. Trump needs to fire that useless POS and appoint, temporarily, some pit bull lawyer from another department for 210 days, and then the man he wants as AG for another 210 days. By then Mueller will be shut down and the senate will be more Republican. At that point, morons like Sasse will have no choice but to accept a new AG.

Ok, then let’s have it. For almost two years we have had daily innuendo, speculation, and intentional setup lies, against the man WE elected POTUS. Now every day we continually hear the word “impeachment”.

I was in a thrift store and saw an IBM Selectric for sale for $15.00.

Don’t tell Dan.
