ps. let's follow the money, shall we ?
So what laws do you theorize have been violated? If Russian oligarchs violated Russian law, that's a matter for Russia. Whether you realize it or not, the US and UK among other venues are awash in Russian money, and the establishment likes having the money.
If I were a Russian, and I broke tons of laws in Russia, and I made tons of money illegally in Russia, and then I took the money and removed it illegally from Russia and bought properties from Donald Trump in America, why do you think Donald Trump would be in trouble for my crimes? For the most part, vendors are not responsible for ensuring that funds they receive are not the result of criminal conduct. It's very likely that Ferrari, Lamborghini and Porsche sell a lot of cars to drug dealers. However, they are not in trouble with the law for selling cars to drug dealers. As Donald Trump quipped when Hillary Clinton alleged that Trump paid little in taxes, "that makes me smart."
There is what you think is wrong, what you think is illegal, and what is actually illegal. What actual crimes do you think Trump committed?

When they send 29 FBI agents on a raid to prosecute Roger Stone, it's pretty clear that they came up snake eyes. $25M for window dressing indictments is not in the interest of justice.

It's quite possible. However, remember George H.W. Bush had a 70% approval rating and went on to lose. The yield curve has inverted or is very close to it. It hasn't been for long, but if an inverted yield curve persists, we could be nearing recession by election time 2020.

Again, what do you think they are? Do you have probable cause?
jimjam wrote:Most are of greater magnitude than Bill Clinton's blow job.
Bill Clinton's blow job was not a criminal act. Lying about it under oath in a suit regarding sexual harassment in the workplace was a material matter, and therefore a felony. Clinton faced impeachment, contempt of court and was disbarred.

You can be sure that Mueller will include plenty of parting shots directed at Trump, but they will likely not amount to a criminal indictment.

The whole thing was establishment trolling. They did huge damage to the credibility of the US justice system just to play political games with Trump. It just goes to show that voting for Trump was the right decision. Just keeping those assholes farther from the levers of power is a good thing.

It was, and it was done on behalf of the Democratic party at tax payer's expense. I think it has had a big impact on older voters. Young voters are often hopelessly stupid. That's why Pelosi wants to lower the voting age.

I do think it's Trump's to lose right now, but we have seen people go on to lose from a position of strength. George H.W. Bush comes to mind. Although, he also violated his "no new taxes" pledge.
