(54,770 posts)and even if a year or two down the road Mueller connects a bunch of dots, the majority won't understand it or care, will call it a political "witch hunt," and we will still have trump or someone like him.
Truthfully, it would be nice, but I don't care if he goes to prison or whatever. He needs to be thrown up for public scorn for numerous transgressions, some of which are not even illegal. Other GOPers need to be shown to be complicit.
He's not going to be convicted in an impeachment. If some state goes after him, they'll never find a jury to convict him because there will always be a couple of ignorant white wingers on the jury.
For the good of the country, Mueller needs to report what he has found. If voters want retribution, then they can vote in Democrats. But removing trump on legalities ain't likely to happen.

There is a solid third of the country who actively want a far right dictatorship and the rest of the Republicans hate us enough that theyll go along until its too late.
They just dont care. Theyre getting what they think they want politically.

(5,210 posts)for all of it. Everywhere. This has to be one massive, massive undertaking. He's moving at breakneck speed, from what I can tell (which isn't much).
I too wish he'd stop and give us what we need to yank Trump out of office, but -- not yet (if indeed ever).

(11,443 posts)been indicted and no crimes uncovered is increasing dramatically. Its now up to 59%. Mueller or somebody needs to call a press conference and lay out the facts so its shown on all the news shows, published in all the newspapers, and headlines on all the internet news sites.
Do something to at least educate the population about what has been accomplished and why its taking so long. 59 fucking percent of the people are clueless. Oh, and 53 percent think its Democrats doing this for political reasons when Mueller and all the other top officials involved in the Russia probe are republicans. These numbers came from various MSNBC shows I caught parts of today.
