The GOP establishment hates Trump every bit as much as the commie RATS do. It is telling there is not a squeak out of the GOP defending Trump.

Then Mueller and his friends need to suddenly run out of paycheck. Trump did promise to eliminate government waste.

Yep. That is all it has ever been. They know there is no collusion with Arussia. Everything from unmasking to these Kabuki investigations are all just a big fishing expedition. The term witch hunt is spot on.

Where's the Clinton's good old stand by fixer attorney, Jamie Gorelick? She has to be in this den of skunks somewhere.

you're not going to believe this but she is Jared Kushner's (Trump's son in law) lawyer.

I think they have found a thread. My guess Manafort, Flynn, and/or Kushner. They are trying to unravel it to Trump.


Here is how serious it is getting:

Yep!!

Trump needs to replace Jeff Sessions immediately. It is a shame to replace an honest man, but the second he could not function as AG, he became worthless to the President.

Sessions should see this and tender his resignation immediately. Susch a shame, but very necessary.

Sessions MUST go.

Rudy Giuliani would have never stood for this crap eaither. Why was he shunned from Trump’s inner circle? He would have never got into this mess.

Stop funding this insanity. Even if it means shutting down government offices and positions. Today. Do not feed rabid dogs.

There has never been a Special Prosecutor (aka ‘Counsel’) who did not quickly succumb to “Mission Creep”, embark on empire building, and conduct extended fishing trips looking for someone - anyone - to burn.

We see the Special Prosecutor as a temporary position, but they are lawyers and lawyers are experts at turning the smallest task into a life’s work.

So be Sessions inaction and cowardice, can we agree he is part of the swamp too that we need to get rid of? There are Freepers that are still praising him to the hilt and I have no idea why other than they are Never Trumpers and want to see Sessions thwart our president.

trump’s lawyer, Michael Cohen, has just hired someone who worked against organized crime under Reagan.

Stephen Ryan praised the hiring of Mueller for special counsel in a radio interview and said he was the best choice for it.

Is President Trump hanging himself here?


I am feeling frustrated that Trump is doing nothing. I try to tell myself he’s got a plan and when he hits back it will end this for good.

But I’m beginning to lose faith.

Rudy Giuliani would have never stood for this crap either.
Why was he shunned from Trump’s inner circle?

Because President Trump was getting advice from the Obama holdovers and GOP establishment insiders
he brought into his inner circle and they knew Rudy would have never stood for this crap.

How much is the federal government paying all these new lawyers on the Special Prosecutor’s staff?

$1,000 an hour?

What Perjury Trap? Trump is has not been under oath for anything. He is the President, he does not have to testify at the request of Congress.

Trump has volunteered to go under oath.

Of course, he would be crazy to do it.

This is House of Cards, end of season 2. Waiting for the do-nothing Republicans to turn actively on Mr. Trump.

....” Waiting for the do-nothing Republicans to turn actively on Mr. Trump”....

Their silence, once again is deafening....Ryans keeping them all in check.....as is McCain And McConnell.....I hate these guys even worse than the Demorats....their own power is their game and retaining that first and foremost.
