(630 posts)Mueller would have to be incredibly politically naive or overly idealistic if he didn't think Trump attempting to fire him was a possibility. He just doesn't seem that way, based on how he has been operating. I'm sure he has some kind of plan in place. Now, whether said plan would work, I have no idea. hopefully Mueller has thought about the unthinkable. Otherwise, he'll go down in history as the Ned Stark of the tale of U.S. democratic decline.

Because Republicans don't care. And they are the only ones who have the power to do anything about it.
The real question is whether or not voters will hold the Republican Party accountable in 2018. I'm not all that hopeful, but I must admit that the results in Virginia and Alabama have encouraged me a little.
