GOP Candidates Call for End to Mueller Investigation

https://politicalwire.com/2018/04/18/gop-candidates-begin-calling-for-end-to-mueller-investigation/

"SNIP..........

“Republican Senate candidates in competitive primary races have begun to call for an end to the special counsel’s investigation of Russian tampering in the 2016 election, breaking from congressional GOP leaders,” the Washington Post reports.

“Candidates in Montana, Indiana, Arizona and Mississippi have gone public since Sunday with their concerns that the investigation by Robert Mueller has gone on too long, expanded too broadly or is motivated by improper partisan interests.”

“All are competing in states President Trump won easily in the 2016 campaign.”

it still leans repuke, but it is trending left and even Mississippi shouldn't be a slam dunk in 2018 for repukes especially if there is high African American turnout. So repukes might want to be careful here.

they'll point out how serious it is (it would be nice to have everyone repeating the same talking points so that they stick) and especially bring up how long Benghazi went on.

care about justice or this country very much.

Trump and the people around him are traitors and this jerk simply doesn't give a damn. Should move to Russia.
