To bring RICO and other State charges against Trump and his family organization , those in Mueller's clutches nor covered by Federal pardons, on tax evasion and other corrupt business dealings.

The man is far from stupid, and he's taken down numerous other mobsters who are way smarter than Trump and his pack of morons. I have little doubt he hasn't already set one massive trap for these stupid fuckers to be sprung if he's fired. That includes nailing them on state charges in New York, as he's been working hand-in-hand with their state AG. The only thing that surprises me is just how blatant Trump has been about it all--and just how fucking stupid he is. I knew the guy wasn't very bright, but goddamn. The only ones more stupid than him are his flying monkey cult followers, who refuse to see just how corrupt he is.

Not paying attention to politics, but not quite ignoring them either. If so, look for him to fire an artillery round early next week.

He's just icing his cake now. They can fire him, but they don't seem to understand that the people under him will keep right on going. As will Mr. Schneiderman in New York.

There has been no bigger obstruction of Justice that has occurred yet that would be bigger than them firing Mueller right now...so the best thing Mueller can do is sit back and wait for Trump yo dig his own political grave. We all know Trump will fire him at some point,that's when everyone is finally going to swarm against him. They won't have a choice.

Who or what is holding him back? We know he wants to and has wanted to since the beginning.

I also think if he's fired he'll be reinstalled. Yes by the Republicans. I believe the R's are COUNTING on Mueller to bring tRUMP down. He is doing this dirty work for them.
