He fears the new players in the arena and yes it will be the end of Franz Clapper and Frau Mueller.

And it’s only been 2 years of “the investigation about nothing”... The Seinfeld investigation.

Let’s end it before someone remembers that it was all to delay investigating hilLIARy.

Muller is CYA for himself only, even if it hurts the Dem Party. Trump is a genius for letting this drag on.

I think the far more insidious, cooler and intelligent deep state powers-that-be are now looking at simply riding this administration out, just as they have in the past.

Perhaps they see that the DOJ IG report didn’t ask to indict anyone, or call criminal, as perhaps an appeasement sop.

So, the deep state ends trying to get Trump out, and Trump doesn’t indict anyone for “past” crimes.

I hate it, but I think it is now becoming a thing.

The RUSSIA RUSSIA RUSSIA investigation will result in a report with no actual evidence of a connection to President Trump’s campaign. It will, however, be quite damning of President Trump and connect him to the non-related crimes of people associated with his campaign. The report, which will result in indictments, will come out right before this year’s elections.

The investigation into obstruction of justice will be similar and come out right before the 2020 election. By that time President Trump’s tax returns for the past 30 years will be leaked to the public.

Yes, that is what I was thinking. The longer the Mueller “investigation” drags on, the more likely it will be that others are caught up in being exposed for their bias and conspiring behaviors against POTUS. JMHO

Exactly. The longer this absurd investigation in search of a crime runs, the more weird things leak out the the FBI. We now have learned operatives in the FBI actively broomed the Clinton Server investigation, that agents wanted Trump's election "stopped", and FBI agents were intimating assassinating Trump.

Any indictment is going to get micro-dissected by the defense, and the prosecution’s people and info are going to get pulled out into the bright sunshine. Muller’s whole investigative team is made of Hillary stormtroopers; think the defense isn’t going to make that into a billboard-sized banner for the judge and jury?

Even with ferocious help from the media, Muller is fishing in a mud puddle.

“This is a cloud that is hanging over the country and certainly hanging over this presidency. And I do hope that happens, and soon.”

It's a cloud that threatens to envelop its authors, not its intended victims. It doesn't appear to be affecting the November elections and it's a massive waste of resources, by which I do not mean taxpayer funds but media campaigns that might be spent in other aspects of obstructing the Trump administration. It's cost the latter dearly in terms of credibility as well, as it has the FBI. Diminishing returns, time to cut the losses.

Probably Clapper is realizing that if the issue remains in play, parallel investigations within Congress and the IG will too. And probably realizing that he and Brennan are the guys who will be designated as the fall guys to protect Obama and Hillary. So suddenly he hopes it all gets wrapped up quickly, before that comes to pass and he gets measured for an orange jumpsuit with OBAMA on the nametag, striked out and CLAPPER hand written above it.

This is some brilliant analysis. You may well be right.

It is my hope that if they hang Clapper, the hanging takes place on a 3 day Holiday weekend, so that those that must travel great distances have a chance to enjoy it in person.

Some in the deep state are beginning to realize that the Mueller show not only is failing to get rid of Trump, but poses a danger to them.

The “investigation” fills the role of pornography for Mueller.
