Mr. Mueller and his team have experience and knowledge in every area of crime that relates to Trump and his gang. Mueller is not new in getting crooks and criminals. He has a lifetime of getting them. His team is designed to get him. It may take time, but in the end, I believe strongly that Mr. Mueller will get him.

(9,426 posts)drawing a pension and all the perks of a president who completes his term. Mueller will have an ironclad case, no squirming out of any charges by tRump or his vile "kids". I want all of them to rue the day they convinced daddy he would make a great president. They have been draining the treasury ever since. Between the 4 of them, Donald, Jr. the Chinless Wonder, Iwanka and EEerie Eric, there is not one functioning brain. All greed, grubbing and selfishness.

(47,583 posts)Such a low profile, unassuming man that most people paid little attention to, will end up being an unforgettable hero. I'm sure its not even a role he ever imagined or wanted for himself. He appears to be a man who does what he does because it is the right thing to do and he won't stop until he is finished.

(32,739 posts)If he does I have no doubt it would be great. I'd give his book to my entire family as Christmas presents.
Of all the many books that will come out of this nightmare, Mueller's would be the most important. Hopefully they will make it into a mini series (too long and complex for a theatrical length movie). In my mind, I'm already trying to cast Mueller.

(38,439 posts)Has he had any press conferences? ... I don't remember any.
Does he make a lot of long speeches? No
Does he seem to like publicity? No
Does he go about things quietly and directly? Yes
Does he seem to need a lot of applause? NO
Is he successful in what he does and has done? Yes.
When he concludes this job, will he be a hero?.... Absolutely, Yes!

(47,583 posts)They are so few and far between, though being they tend to avoid the limelight, I can hope there are more than we realize.
Kind of reminds me a bit of Gregory Peck's Atticus Finch, a soft spoken man, who said more with less and was a calm, but towering presence. As this investigation heats up, I find myself getting more and more dramatic! I still believe in heroes.

(9,865 posts)Repugs will ask Trump to resign in time to get Pence to be the imcumbant.
The pursuit of Trump will be emptied of energy---but it must not be because what Trump has done to Democracy and national security. That still has to be undone.

(9,670 posts)It's easy to believe that a quiet Mueller is losing ground. Easy unless you see the big picture.
And the big picture is that Mueller has set up an intricate web of traps, failsafes, and alternatives in all his silence that will thoroughly stymie Trump as the noose tightens.
There will be one constitutional crisis after another before we see the Orange One perp walked to Leavenworth. But we have a group of rank amateurs employing a mixture of mob deflection, Russian propaganda and executive branch authority to stave off the inevitable, versus the consummate lawman honing in on his targets.
This isn't even a true battle. Just hard to see it amidst the heavy layers of smoke we're attempting to peer through.

(38,439 posts)Mueller is not losing ground. He is gaining ground, and will demolish the "rank amateurs"
Just a matter of time till the smoke clears. Thank You for your post...

(53 posts)I do believe the report from Robert Mueller will expose Trump in glaring detail. What I have a harder time believing is that it will ultimately matter. Without senate Republicans there can be no impeachment. We can tie up the White House when we retake the house. But I think Trump will survive impeachment. The constitution never envisioned a more worthless spineless congress and that the leadership would give up its power to such a corrupt amoral asswipe of a president.

(12,405 posts)Rosenstein. Rosenstein doesn't have to release it. Muller's work may not ever see the light of day.
So let's say he does release it. Are there enough votes in the House to hold judicial committee hearings?

(86,775 posts)a lot of the obstructors will be indicted or resigned in the very near future and I'm going to hold on to that thought until the end of next month. And think that we will be seeing something completely different happen by then, I just have a feeling about it, never said it before.

(1,826 posts)from drump. The question they should be asking is how likely is it that drump WILL pardon them? Not likely, IMHO.
2naSalit
(86,775 posts)one bit worried about a pardon from agent orange, they are sweating the exposure of their crimes. I suspect that the contents of the safe (and in pootie's possession) include something way more insidious than we would dare venture to imagine, like global trafficking of humans for slavery in the sex/child-porn market. Seriously, I think that's what they are hiding and covering up about. How many of these enablers are involved either by partaking or benefiting by monetary/electorally for their silence? That is far nastier than much of what we've heard about and it's also why I think the money laundering and this element I just mentioned are powerful persuading tools for those at the top. Why did Lindsey Graham flip like hot cake with a spatula under it last week? (for instance)
That's what I'm talkin' about, and I am certain that Mueller has this in his file folder too. Time for the plastic ponchos and goggles folks, just keep marching forward to take our country back. The world will be a better place when that happens.

(32,088 posts)As does Barbara Underwood. They are probably in the process of making sure they get him for everything, not just the superficial stuff. Unfortunately, his and his associates' corruption runs so deep, it could take a while before that happens. I think they're also enjoying watching him hang himself on a daily basis.

(12,165 posts)Thank you. The deus ex machina of the Mueller probe won't matter if we fail to seize the house -- and the Blue Wave is not inevitable.
If each of us does our part, maybe. If we don't prevail in November, we'll regret it the rest of our lives.

(45,523 posts)people are hoping desperately for Trump to be charged with crimes and removed from office, but that is far less likely and would depend on Dems winning enough seats in both houses of Congress in a big blue wave. I hope it will happen, but not counting on it.

(22,869 posts)a favor. Mueller and his team know what they are doing and are some of the best people in the world in their respective fields.
Stuart G
(38,439 posts)those urging Mueller and team to "hurry up" are doing Trump a favor.
...That is exactly what Trump and the crooks want. They want an incomplete and poor investigation. Mueller will not do that. Mueller and team will do the total and complete opposite. I do believe deep in my heart, that the Mueller team knows that the fate of this democracy depends on that. We have every single indication that the Mueller team is doing exactly that...total and complete. That team has already got 2 convictions and some pending. The president's own lawyer has pleaded guilty. Is that correct?..What does Cohen know, and when did he know it?.. It may take some time to get Humpty Trump to fall off this particular wall..........but Mueller will get exactly that..
...And when Humpty has fallen, no one will be able to Humpty back together again...!!!!!!!!!!

(13,421 posts)There's an old story about two bulls--an old one and a young one--standing on top of a hill looking down on a pasture full of young heifers. The young bull says, "See that one over there? She's looking mighty attractive. Let's run down there and have our way with her." The old bull says, "Hell with running. Let's WALK down there and have our way with them all."
Mueller might be taking his time, but he will have his way with every one of them in that particular field. He'll get his job done.
