The GOP holds the reins of law enforcement federally. And the GOP Congress shows all indications that it is full in with Trump. It will likely pick corruption, obfuscation and malfeasance over the good the the country. Even if there is provable treason the GOP is in on it or will bury it.
We must understand the GOP never does the right thing on anything. Mueller can indict anyone he wants. Trump can pardon everyone and the GOP can stand aside with few repercussions. Based on all their recent activity how can you trust anything. When you have members in Congress both House Reps and Senators openly obstructing just with NO GOP kick back the real truth should be obvious.

(22,133 posts)it's amazing that if a normal person is accused of any crime, then wham! The wheels of justice will turn (as it does normally).
But with the repugs, they all operate like the untouchables in that old TV series and this is wrong.
These people are answerable to the people, but I don't see this anymore. They gutted the ethics bodies that watch over them. They hide the truth within a web of half lies. They hide behind closed doors when they do their supposed investigations. Hypocrites.
Arrogance gets you nowhere, and it will come back to bite them in the proverbial ass, in spades.
Just venting here...sorry...

I'm very fearful that the coup has already occurred.

(14,961 posts)If somehow there's proof on tape of this, how can they defend it? I know there are some that will try. I really don't see Fox news trying to spin that. I realize this is a likely a fantasy, a girl can dream can't she?

(30,613 posts)One by one, Mueller will arrest and indict people like Dustbin Nunes, RonJon, Cotton Blather, etc. Turd will throw them under the bus, and gradually his power base will disappear. Then POOF!

(14,565 posts)We have no control over what Mueller can do, or whether 45 can be dealt with directly.
This and the next election will be the most important in this country's history.
We have to get past all the bullshit and wrestle the House from the republicans, that is the first step. In addition knock any R we can out of their elected positions at the state level
Then, gear up and finish the sweep in 2020.
Get our nominee elected in 2020, get the swamp drained at 1600, and there will be a LOT better chance 45 gets dealt with as a citizen.
