Nine words in a recent Trump interview that scare the bejesus out of me.

While everyone else seems to be arguing over what happened in 2015 and 2016 with the DNC, Trump gave an interview yesterday.

It was with a sympathetic, sycophantic broadcaster (as most of his recent interviews have been), local radio show Larry O'Connor.

In it, Trump bemoaned the fact that he wanted to investigate Hillary Clinton, presumably in relation to the Steele Dossier and the Uranium One deal years ago, but most likely because she had the audacity to run against him and get more votes that he got.

However, he said his hands were tied by the Justice Department, who hadn't yet taken up his cause.

He said the following verbatim:



"It’s very discouraging to me. I’ll be honest, I’m very unhappy with it, that the Justice Department isn’t going…maybe they are but you know as President, and I think you understand this, as a President you’re not supposed to be involved in that process. But hopefully they are doing something and at some point, maybe we are going to all have it out.

(Cue record scratch)

Wait, what?

What the hell does he mean by "have it out"?

Does he want to take full control over the direction of the Justice Department if they don't do what he says?

Who the hell does this asshole think he is?

80% of the words that come out of his mouth had zero meaning. He's like a drunk at the bar talking about how he's going to start his own company or go back to college or move to Hawaii. A few months ago he talked about how he was looking into letting the government negotiate with drug companies. Never heard anything about it since and we probably never will again. He talks about a lot of shit that ends up going nowhere. It's all just rambling nonsense from a delusional idiot.

while Mueller is busy arranging more indictments, setting up more booby-traps in case of his sudden departure, etc.
