36 Nil. 36 Nil. But dont panic because its only half time. Thats a line from a rowan akinston skit as rowan as a soccer coach. The positive posts here suggesting that trump is going to be charged and impeached in the coming months remind me of that skit.

2. Exactly! If Mueller won't indict 45, who will? Definitely not SDNY.

Any indictments by the NY AG on NY state charges will be laughed at and 45 will never turn himself over to authorities nor will he be extradited.

The ball game ended today regardless of what all of the positive posts here are saying.

4. In your OPINION, "the ballgame ended today". As they say, opinions are like bellybuttons:

everybody's got one. We're all entitled to choose our own "take" on things; even those of us who think the "game" goes on.

Opinions---negative or positive---sometimes have a way of becoming self-fulfilling policies. That's reason enough for me to hold onto the hope that Dr. King's "arc of the universe" is just just bending a little slower towards justice than many of us would prefer.

6. Feel free to answer the question then. Who will indict and prosecute if the DOJ won't?

Mueller gave 45 a "Get out of Jail Free" card today. Without any federal indictments, impeachment and removal from office are no longer on the table. Justice has been denied to America for 45's crimes.

9. Mueller's refusal to indict and prosecute for the crimes in the Manafort indictment speaks volumes.

Disregard anything we don't potentially know and focus on what we do know. Mueller refused to indict Individual-1 on the crimes mentioned in the Manafort indictments. If Mueller won't, who do you think will? Certainly not this DOJ under the control of one of 45's lackeys.

11. You are certainly entitled to believe those are the facts. I am merely saying I DON'T KNOW what

You're dropping your hook in a fished out creek.

You can do as you want. I'm gonna focus on 2020 and get behind a candidate I think who can win against Trump. And right now, IMO, we ain't got one.

7. Panic??? ROTFLOL!!

What we have to do is live with the fact unless something completely unforeseen happens, Trump will not be impeached. We now should focus on who our best candidate is and win in 2020.

I think Michelle Obama would be one of my personal fav's who could do just. BUT...it's a long time to 2020 and anything can happen.
