Get ready for Mueller's end game...

Article at Salon

https://www.salon.com/2018/12/01/get-ready-for-the-end-game/

It is an interesting time line of the Russian interference and Individual #1’s participation.

The last paragraph has me just livid.

-snip-

With Donald Trump, it’s always about the money. He is not going to sit in the White House and watch his business empire suffer the same fate as Paul Manafort, who forfeited $46 million to the government as part of his plea deal. He’ll resign with an assurance that he is pardoned for his crimes in the Russia investigation, the same way Nixon resigned with a pardon for his crimes in Watergate.

Please in no way shape or form should he be allowed to resign. I would love to see him gone but not with a pardon.
He should be in prison along with all involved.

No pardon.

Fines for state crimes and money laundering. Repossess his gold toilet!

I don't know if he will resign though. He does understand that he can't be indicted while in office (now that his bro Brett is on the SC), so he will stay in there as long as he possibly can.

But I agree - No Pardon.

Trumpy and his entire organization. Oh. And remember that Trumpy can NOT pardon a company. The Trump Organization is ripe for the picking.

Trumpy values money more than anything else. He can suffer a whole lot as a wealthy person, but take his money away, and he's got nothing.

We have to make this clear to our Reps and Senators.

No pardon ever and none for all his cronies including Pence.

His complete humiliation, however, does. And now that NY is digging into his businesses and "foundation," I think THAT is vector that sends him to jail.

And Pence as part of their resignation agreement. Then Pence will go on the rest of his life living in shame while Trump will face a myriad of state and international charges and die in jail during trial.

He's in this up to his neck.

But, you don't like the idea of President Pelosi. It alliterates better than President Pence!

So Russiagate isn’t that different from Watergate after all. They will have the same end game.

I hope it's not just a few losers under the bus and then it's over.

I hope the whole crime family falls.

Not only fails but puts them on an equal par with the most destitute. Plus no one should be able to try to keep them in their lifestyle. You’re on your own trumpie family, deal with it.

But if Trump and his evil spawn steal AF1 and fly it to Siberia to live a life on the lam for the rest of their rotten days, I'd be perfectly fine with it.

I just want him gone and the insanity stopped.
