So you asked a question which required some contemplation, let me try one.... What do you think the life expectancy of the Mueller investigation is from the time Mueller asks the AAG to indict Donald Trump, Jr? I don't think particularly long. It seems that card has to be played at just the right time, like when he work is pretty much done.
If you ever played rummy, you would not look at the cards laid down as the threat; it would be the cards in your opponents hand that were being held close to the vest that you should worry about.
The Mueller investigation has been one of the most efficient of all such investigations. In just two years, Mueller's team has indicated or convicted 35 persons and 3 companies with over 100 charges. The chart below diagrams the success over time of various major federal investigations
