Now that's the truth

(4,103 posts)He spent his entire life building a brand based exclusively on fraud, and suing anyone into submission who attempted to expose it. The stage he's on now is too large to continue that shtick that's why he's crashing and burning.
His glazed over cult members will blindly defend him to the end just as Scientologists blindly defend L. Ron Hubbard, but everyone else sees that the emperor has no clothes

(38,439 posts)His thinking is so clouded by "self involvement" that he cannot see where he is at.
He is up against one of the finest prosecutors and investigators in the entire country. In areas that he is not familiar with, that person, Mueller, has obtained the best in those areas. Not just the best, but some of the most experienced in getting who they are after..and have gotten those they are after..
Because of that one short paragraph, Trump's strategy must fail. Your words also stand out:
Trump will keep using his tricks, Mueller will keep investigating and in the end truth and justice will have the last word
His strategy must fail, because that strategy is built on a foundation of lies. Criminal investigation is built on the truth. If Trump has committed crimes, Mueller and his team of investigators and prosecutors will uncover those crimes. If Trumps team of liars and shakers has committed crimes, that team will be tried and convicted One of them, has already coped a plea. Why would he do that? Because the evidence of conviction was so convincing that that is what a person does in that situation.
Trump really doesn't have a clue. He is up against an outstanding team of prosecutors and investigators. Trump's team is full of arrogance and the belief that they can get away with "anything"..(as Trump did) Trump's team cannot spin the truth. After indictments, there will be convictions and "pleas"..Trump's team will go down, just as Nixon's team went down. Trump will resign, just as Nixon resigned. If Trump thinks he can "bully" Mueller and who replaces him if fired..then Trump stupidity and arrogance is as great as Nixons. And Trump will end up just like Nixon. Totally humiliated and isolated.
