Whiff of Panic: Trump/Giuliani/McCarthy all calling to end Mueller probe over @JusticeOIG report saying @Comey broke rules in way that helped Trump. Follow THAT logic. Cohen flip prospect must be making them crazy.

And now Manafort is headed for the can, making him more likely to flip. Line up Flynn, Cohen and Manafort as cooperating prosecution witnesses and you’ve got a prospect that explains the panic in Trumpland.

if I had an animal in my herd that behaved like Donnie O, well that pig would already be in someone's freezer.

That said, one of the great things about social media is that people are so exposed to the emotions of so many through their posts and tweets they pickup on the fear, lies, and desperation behind the postings.

Donnie O is so far out of his comfort zone and so lacking in empathy, subtlety, and finesse that it's really easy to read the emotional content behind his tweets. He's a bully and the other kids on the playground have been cowed by him and hate him. As he becomes more desperate and frightened they will turn on him and it won't be a pretty sight.

Buckle up cause the ride's going to get bumpy but make sure you've got your popcorn cause it's going to be quite the show.

They're sweating bullets.

This is only right, since Trump is guilty as hell of being a corrupt mob boss and a Russian agent.

Donnie O really thought this whole POTUS thing was going to be a walk in the park. Swarms of loving, adoring minions casting adoration and providing him with the means of actually accumulating a fortune from the suckers, ooops I mean consumers.

What's it's turning into for him is a walk through hell.
