Trump/Russia/SDNY investigation

If he did get done and then got a pardon, he'd 100% say it proved his innocence.

No doubt. I still reckon Pence (presuming he's not implicated in this) would probably give him one as well, just to pacify Trump's base and enthuse them for 2020.
 
What a day. Almost got a bit dull there by Trump standards. Can't wait to see the fallout in the next 24 hours. For those believing this Syria thing is too convenient for Trump - maybe consider the alternative that it's been an excellent distraction for the investigators as well. It's just very sad we talk about the loss of human life benefiting one party or the other but it's the world we live in :(

I'm again pretty convinced though that some folks high up in the establishment, not necessarily all GOP , are protecting Sessions with all their might because has anyone else taken as much abuse from Potus and is still actually around ? (For now). Without Sessions "allowing" investigations to proceed the GOP would have a very hard time claiming they were impartial in any of this. He s almost like an alibi personified.

No wonder Trump has been going hard on Putin and Russia lately and regarding with Syria. He probably knew this shit was coming and he has probably been trying to make sure all the attention are on Syria as much as possible.
 
Cowen is royally screwed.

Did anyone else see Preet Bharara go through the steps that the US Attorney would have to take to get the warrant to raid an attorney’s office?

And how he pointed out that the US Attorney of the Southern District of NY was his old position and that if it’s that office that asked for the raid that it is currently manned by a Trump appointee?

Trump's being investigated for, among other things, obstruction of justice. He then goes on TV and says that if Sessions hadn't have accused himself he'd have used him to stop the investigation. You really do get to the point where you suspect those advising him who could have steered him off such a public admission literally don't give a feck any more.

Correct. Geoffrey Berman was Trump's pick and is doing the job on an interim basis.
 
Really throws a wrench into the whole “witch hunt” narrative.

I have a feeling I’m going to have to point that fact out to some folks today.
C'mon... as far as trump and his supporters a little fact like that isnt going to get in the way of it being a crooked hillary lead witch hunt as she tries to steel the presidency

I'm actually hoping it all blows over as if he does get impeached I can see him calling for his supporters to defend their president from the deep state and take to the street with their (many many) guns... honestly I dread to think how bad it could go...

Much better to let him flap about for another 2 and a half years and hope the voters have come to their senses by then

Most of his supporters are old as feck or keyboard warriors who won't back up their words. It'll be fine.
 
So Hicks' departure was a 'crisis' for Trump? Jesus...

That's my concern too. Some real wackos out there that won't be able to handle their cognitive dissonance

I doubt anything substantial will happen. And I'd reckon most of those crazy Trump supporters on Twitter are bots. I spent a few minutes yesterday just browsing through the followers of followers of followers of these accounts from the #FireMueller hashtag. Bot system if I've ever seen one... because grandmas and old men sit on Twitter all day retweeting thousands of tweets without writing anything of their own.

Have a look on FreeRepublic if you want to depress yourself about how many actual crazy bastards are out there cheering for the orange one.
