..but it seems Mr Mueller is closing in on the "witch".
Even if he does, there is little that can be done as a result. Impeachment might pass the House but will die in the Senate and it seems there is consensus that trump can't be indicted while in office.
So---we will still be stuck with the witch:shrug:
Trump does not hide his feelings on these things. I think we'll see him demonstrate even less self-control as the pressure on him mounts.
Even without an impeachment, there are still voters that Trump must face, if he runs again. Hopefully, we would see him lose in another presidential election.

Then he would have to loose in the primaries because at this point I see a field of scary alternatives on the left---as in Elizabeth Warren.Quote:

Despite his myriad faults, I would still rather have him than Hillary.
My hope is that once the heat rises enough he demonstrates his playground mentality and picks up his toys and goes home. The sooner the better. That would give Pence a head start for 2020 maybe averting a Democrat in the Whitehouse.
Here's an interesting scenario:Quote:

After the 116th is sworn in...Brrrr...:omfg:...Ben
If Cohen had anything substantial the judge in that case would not have recommended a large sentence and went with what Mueller recommended. Take the hoopla from when this was started, the accusations, the theories, the outright lies and after 2 years no evidence of any collusion (which is not a crime) has been found. It was a misdirection, a plan of division trying to sway public opinion for Trump to fail. In the end it is the media who will pay the price, they have been behind all of the hype and lies and they will be the ones who nobody believes any longer.
Think about this, if they do not come up with a picture of Trump and Putin sitting in a mountain of cash, they will have failed and Trump will have won. Whether he is a scumbag or not, the lie that was perpetrated against him will make him stronger and more powerful than ever. This is their last ditch effort and it had better be a big one, because all of the candidates on the left will depend on it. The blowup in 2020 will be huge and if your think Trump browbeats the media and the Dems now, just wait and see what he does when all of the Russia hoax is proven to be just that, a hoax. The size of his mouth and the intensity of the words he will be saying will be yuge compared to what everybody is whining about now. It will be monumental the payback he will inflict upon those who went against him.
I would be fine with Ryan, Ben.

X2, I voted for him (write-in) in the last election----I could not hold my nose long enough :rolleyes2:Quote:

X 2 to that one as well. I would rather see somebody devoid of a political career all together. Less ammunition for all sides to waste time exploiting. Add to that without playing the political games we can actually have a Congress that works, instead of bickering and fighting.Quote:
