Trump is a prosecutors dream.

Thousands of lies documented on twitter and video. Trump will be questioned by Mueller. He may be called to testify before a grand jury. There is no way in hell they will not catch him lying. Trump can't remember all the lies he has told.

There will be testimony from dozens of people made under oath about Trump and what he has done and said. Trump won't know what other people have said. Trump is fucked.

10. I don't think so

Robert Mueller is probably deeply aware of the awesomeness of his job. I feel confident that he is approaching his work with sincerity and adherence to the Constitution and the applicable laws.

Going after Trump is easy pickings, I'll agree. Why didn't the media do that last year?

11. Is that the deposition where he didn't have his glasses?

Had I been the deposing attorney, I would have said, "Mr. Trump, my assistant will go get your glasses. Please tell them where they can pick them up for you."

Yeah, he was complete bullshit.

8. Don't underestimate him

A life long talented con artist does remember many of their lies and cons, and often refuse to answer, say they can't recall, don't remember, or in his case site executive privilege , or many others little things , but most of all they are expert at excuses , and from years at crafting them makes him very elusive. Bernie Maddoff was probably on this guys level, and they got him. His time is coming, and he knows it, and what scares me is what he's liable to do , and capable of doing. He's a national security threat to us all.

9. I'm not sure. His clan has discredited Mueller among themselves.

Do we think they are suddenly supposed to care about the law? Nope, cheat, lie, steal...the end justifies the means.

They aren't going to fall in line on this. As Rump said, he could shoot someone in front of them, and they will follow him. He admitted to sex assault on tape, and they denied and defended.

I agree, do not underestimate these people. Meanwhile, the Senate is throwing out the best voice to expose them.

13. There is no evidence Mueller wants to question Trump.

Mueller has made no indication that he wants to do that. Likewise with a Grand Jury appearance.
