The swamp knows that they have committed extensive improprieties during the last administration that could destroy them and the Democrat party.

Their defense is to start a massive investigation of the Trump campaign to delegitimize any revelations the current administration might reveal about the previous administration.

Or at least use the old excuse "both parties do it".

Exactly.

I agree with your take on what Mueller is attempting to do. I see the whole legal process being turned upside down in an effort to build enough legal ambiguity to enable the democrats to obstruct justice. They will never spend a day in confinement at any facility for any crime. At the same time they are putting the full force of govt against President Trump at every level to find something, anything, that they can blow into a prosecutable offense. The end result will be a trade off where the criminals of the Obama administration will be off the hook for any legal consequence and America's legitimately elected President Trump will have been delegitimized as much as possible but remains standing. For the time being. The Republican party establishment is on notice that President Trump is the last hope for a two party system of govt. They will be gone if they continue to work against this president who has the support of millions of American voters.
