Scott Adams, the creator of Dilbert and popular political prognosticator, floated a theory of “mutually assured destruction” on Sunday morning: if prosecutors pursue President Donald Trump, he will make sure that Hillary Clinton and her allies go to jail.
Adams said that his theory explained why Trump had retained Jeff Sessions as Attorney General, even while attacking him for failing to pursue charges against Hillary Clinton, as well as members of the “deep state” who had conspired to spy on the Trump campaign.
The goal, he said, was to make sure prosecutors understood there was a “red line” they could not cross — because doing so would trigger Sessions’s replacement with a prosecutor who would take down Trump’s enemies:
Let me ask you this — and I’ve not seen any reporting on this: what would happen if they actually got the president on something serious? Well, between the time the president knew he was going down — and this is hypothetical, let’s imagine that they found something in his business or something that was problematic — he would have a number of months of being in power before he was technically out of office. What would he do? Well, I think he would employ “mutually assured destruction” — not of the world, but of Hillary Clinton.
Adams later specified that the “red line” for Special Counsel Robert Mueller was any investigation into the broader finances of the Trump Organization, which had nothing to do with the 2016 presidential election or allegations of Russian “collusion.”

How many times has Hillary lied about not remembering names and things and then immediately changing her tune when confronted the the details she tried to obscure. Think back to the Benghazi hearings. Think back to her contempt in joking if the server was wiped with a rag/
They weaponized the fisa court to spy on Carter Page as a pretext to spy and wire tap the campaign. It was a huge scam. Im sorry you missed it. Rosenstien signed false warrant applications based on the fake Steele dossier paid for by hillary clinton and lied to the judges unless the judges were in on it. It has been historic . You would enjoy catching up on it.
What false statements did Don Jr. make?
After Mueller finishes investigating Trump for financial “crimes” and finds nothing, what’s next? And what has this got to do with colluding?
Is there an end point to this? Will Mueller investigate Trump for throwing a spitball at his 3rd grade teacher.
When is this Stalinist witch hunt going to be shut down once and for all?
Trump thought Sessions would be anti-left after how they treated him years ago. Trump was wrong. Sessions years in Congress corrupted him. He is part of the swamp now.
The Administration is playing "rope-a-dope" or is being herded into slaughter. The very nature of Impeachment and its hysteria will be enough to gut MAGA and the Trump Administration. This is a coup and they are doing nothing to stop it. It's maddening.
Just shows the level of corruption, how deep it is and how long it’s been going on. This woman should have been locked up decades ago.
Rosenstein was the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Maryland during the 2016 campaign. I'm really curious what role he played in securing FISA warrants to "wire tap the campaign."
If Jesus himself returned and said that Hillary goes to prison or he will destroy the world in fire, get your affairs in order. It ain’t gonna happen - ever.
OMG. Are you serious? Sad. Move along.
By any reasonable standard he probably didn’t make any false statements, however, the FBI has used sketchy “false statement” tactics to nail whoever they want. Similar to the old “tax evasion” charge often used to nail difficult targets.

Revolt
I’m all for it, but I don’t see how a right weing revolt can ever happen. I’m pretty sure it’s never happened in history.
This is stupid.
A huge pile of national secrets are already compromised by her and her minions’ actions.
All of which can be nullified when those handing out the deals are arrested themselves.
Maybe you forgot the /S?
Are you serious?
Nope. She can plead out. She is old and sick.
this is hypothetical, let’s imagine that they found something in his business or something that was problematic — he would have a number of months of being in power before he was technically out of office.

No. From what I’ve read, he cannot be impeached for anything he did before becoming President (and he hasn’t done business since then).
He can also pardon himself, if they come after him with some other bogus charge, then give them the finger. 50 million of us would gladly join him.
